American Superman

Christopher Dennis AKA Hollywood Superman tragically dies. While his close friends and relatives are giving eulogy at his funeral at the Forest Lawn cemetery, the story takes us back to his past when he was disowned by his father as a rebellious child and grew up in orphanages in 1970's America. After turbulent childhood, drug addiction creeps in, but Chris fights it by choosing the good side as he becomes the first costume character on the walk of fame and works as Hollywood Superman making tourists smile. Portraying a kind and helping Superman helps Chris to stay afloat. After 25 years many changes happen, not just to Chris but to the whole country, and Superman character is out of favor as Joker becomes the modern hero. Haunted by the inner addiction demons of his past, Chris loses his Superman costume and spirals into homelessness. His last wish to be buried in his Superman costume is fulfilled.
