Written by Gross/McKenzie with art by Matias Festa, Shatman & Spocky is actually inspired by an installment of Gross' "Media Geek" strip (for samples of the strip, just click HERE), which came from an off-the-cuff thought: what if William Shatner decided to become a superhero in the vein of a parody of Batman, and instead of Robin by his side was the waist-high Spocky. What the new comic has that the original didn't was a growing antagonism between the two characters which should (hopefully) provide a number of laughs. The team of Shatman and Spocky will also be appearing in issues two and three of Fleischer. Expect the first strip within the next week or so.
Below is a sample image done by Matias Festa. In the final comic, Spocky will be waist-high and Green Latrine won't be making an appearance (although he will have his own spin-off).
