Heroman is a show even more patriotic than Fox News. If the red, white and blue wasn’t a dead giveaway, the alien bad guys always have red energy floating around their every being. This is a clear message that Heroman is in fact an ally of justice and aliens are communist pigs trying to destroy capitalism and the spirit of freedom, as displayed by the master-and-slave relationship between robot and outcast boy. Heroman stops the spread of their ethnocentric socialist beliefs across the heart of America (the west coast) and the free worlds of Earth (all five of them).

The actual show is about some boy whose robot toy gets struck by a magical lightning from one of the alien’s weapon of mass destruction. And like straight out of the textbook of superhero 101 turns into a nigh-indestructible robot bigger than Yao Ming and his commie friends.

I guess the main reason I like it so much is my friends and I decided to play a drinking game where we take shots every time an American Flag pops up on screen. Five minutes into the first episode, my friend was nearly wasted and I was puking in the closet. Let’s hope this successful first episode spawns many more to follow.

I don’t really know if there is a story to this show… but when you have America at every corner, who really needs one? Did I mention Stan Lee came up with the original concept? That crazy kook is up to something again!
