    Short summary describing this issue.

    Better Living Through Chemistry last edited by gravenraven on 05/29/23 09:20PM View full history

    Eric Kripke (creator of Supernatural) teams up with Vertigo veterans John Higgins (HELLBLAZER) and Glenn Fabry (PREACHER) to bring you a very Vertigo take on the modern superhero in this six-issue miniseries. Josh Jaffe, a neurotic family man mid-midlife crisis, buys an online “smart pill” to increase his focus and jolt him out of his slump. But to Josh’s surprise, the pill gives him incredible strength and power—but its cost is that it’s extremely addictive. This irreverent and brutally realistic story examines both the mighty highs and humiliating lows of being a real-life superhero.

    Jacked #1 - Better Living Through Chemistry by rideaspacecowboy on November 26, 2015

No one’s really that strong – or selfless. Hell, in the real world? Superman falls of a horse and ends up in a wheelchair. Nope. Being a superhero – a real one—is impossible. But then again – maybe all you need’s the right drugs.”These words – juxtaposed against images of a f...
