Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_content_3'); })Aztek was a DC Comics superhero, who appeared in Aztek: The Ultimate Man and for a while was a member of the Justice League of America.He was created by Grant Morrison and Mark Millar, and debuted in 1996, at the tail end of The Dark Age of Comic Books — against which he stands as a reaction. Aztek is The Cape: brightly dressed, noble to a fault, the kind of superhero who will happily take the time to search for a lost pet or fly halfway across the country to persuade a sick child's favourite celebrity to come and visit.note Actual examples from the series. —Ed. By way of contrast, Aztek: The Ultimate Man drops him into the kind of violent, crime-ridden urban setting one would expect to see a Nineties Antihero striding through. (It does, in fact, have a Nineties Antihero striding through it — up until halfway through issue 1, when he gets blown up by one of his many enemies.) Much trope-juggling ensues.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_content_2'); })Uno was raised by a secret society to be the Champion of Quetzalcoatl and defend the world from the prophesied return of Tezcatlipoca; to this end he has been equipped with Charles Atlas Superpowers and a nifty white-and-gold supersuit. In the first issue of Aztek: The Ultimate Man, having finished his training, he arrives in Vanity City to await the fulfillment of the next part of the prophecy; after witnessing the explosive death of the city's official superhero, he adopts the identity of a man who was a collateral casualty of the explosion, and decides that superheroing would be a worthwhile use of his abilities while he's waiting for his true purpose to come knocking. In the second issue, the new hero is invited to become the city's new official superhero, and is dubbed "Aztek" by the media.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_content_1'); })The series has a developing subplot about who really pulls the strings in the Q Society, and how they intend for Aztek to spend the waiting time.Aztek: The Ultimate Man lasted only ten issues before being wiped out in The Great Comics Crash of 1996, but by then Aztek had already been established as a serious enough player to be invited into the Justice League of America, and his story continued in the JLA's own series (which, not entirely coincidentally, was being written at the time by Aztek's co-creator Grant Morrison). In the pages of Justice League of America, Morrison finished out the string-pulling subplot, and ultimately had Aztek, the JLA, and every other superpowered person on Earth unite against a world-threatening menace which was identified as the fulfillment of the Tezcatlipoca prophecy. | |

Aborted Arc | |
Aztek (Comic Book) / int_23698fa8 | comment |
Aborted Arc: Only the major plot arc was continued into JLA; somewhere up to half a dozen subsidiary arcs dropped out of sight when Aztek: The Ultimate Man was canceled (although they weren't completely aborted; the implication was that they still played out off-panel). The final issue of Aztek takes the time to explicitly Sequel Hook every one of them, in what might charitably be considered a reminder that Aztek's story wasn't ending just because the series was (or, less charitably, as an annoying tease). | |

Wretched Hive | |
Aztek (Comic Book) / int_40cbee83 | comment |
Wretched Hive: Vanity City is explicitly described in one issue as being like Gotham City, only worse. It's hinted that the city's most influential architect deliberately included Alien Geometries in his work that cause mental instability, violent tendencies, etc. in the inhabitants. (This may have had something to do with the reason Aztek came to the city in the first place, but if so the series was canceled before the significance was revealed.) Alien geometries or not, it's certainly full of demonstrations of mental instability and violent tendencies, most dramatically with the city's former official hero Bloodtype and his girlfriend, both over-the-top Nineties Antiheroes... who were both Patriotic Fervor heroes before they came to Vanity. | |

Apparently, the only reason more people haven't figured it out is that most of the people who've met Curt Falconer haven't met Aztek, and vice versa. | |

Face–Heel Turn: Bloodtype and Death-Doll were both patriotically themed superheroes who initially came to Vanity looking to spread a little hope before they were in an accident that destroyed most of their bodies and their minds. They were later reconstructed by the CIA, though Bloodtype was still covered in bandages and Death-Doll thought she looked like a giant Barbie doll. | |

Aztek (Comic Book) / int_bd0d6395 | comment |
No Social Skills: Aztek, who up to the start of the series has spent pretty much his entire life in the Q Society's secret lair. In one issue, it has to be explained to him that a restaurant menu is a set of options, not a description of the entire meal. | |

Evil Running Good | |
Aztek (Comic Book) / int_c95e8c63 | comment |
Evil Running Good: In the present day, the Q Society is heavily dependent on financial support from a wealthy sponsor who is revealed partway through the run to be Lex Luthor. To be fair, he genuinely wants them to succeed in their task of saving the world from Tezcatlipoca, but until Tezcatlipoca shows up he intends to take full advantage of effectively owning his own superhero. | |

Super Registration Act | |
Aztek (Comic Book) / int_ce22183 | comment |
Super Registration Act: Kind of. It's established in issue 2 that, although superheroes in general don't require registration, becoming a city's Official Superhero entails filling out a standard registration form with questions like "Do you have any archenemies we should know about?". Even then, it's explicitly noted that the questions relating to secret identity are optional. There's also registration forms for extraterrestrial superheroes and former supervillains, and another form for if they're interested in seeking a teenage sidekick. | |

Arc Welding: In a late issue, it's retroactively announced that many of the events of the series to that point were set up by the Q Society's backer to turn Aztek's life down a particular path. This is not entirely plausible in the details. | |

Aztek (Comic Book) / int_e5d8460d | comment |
Unexplained Recovery: Death-Doll supposedly died at the end of the third issue, but would later show up in Wonder Woman when most of the male heroes and villains were turned into animals by Circe, leading the female villains to go on a rampage while the heroines need to stop them. However, given that she was already in an accident and rebuilt by the CIA, it's possibly she was salvaged again. | |

The Not-Love Interest: Julia Frostick, the main female character, fits the role that would normally be the love interest, but already has a boyfriend and isn't interested in ditching him for Uno. The series sets up a couple of Ship Tease/Will They or Won't They? moments only to immediately subvert them. | |
