I Need a Hero

Inspiration can strike like lightening.
But how many times have we been caught in a brainstorm and not followed through? Too many I'm sure. It's rare when
a brainstorm strikes, takes hold, grows, and comes to fruition. That is exactly what has occurred with Terrell Sandefur's brain-baby, Macon Man. Running the concept by DC Comics illustrator Craig Hamilton the two men have worked tirelessly to bring this idea to life. Lo and behold their baby is born! A bouncing 6'4" 240 lb all muscle Super Hero!

Macon Man serves as mentor and protector to a group of local teens that suddenly find themselves with super powers. Premiering in the latest edition of the 11th Hour and in featured in the June/July issue of Macon Magazine, Macon Man is creating a buzz locally and beyond. As the only comic set in a real town, the emphasis is placed on preserving Macon's rich cultural history, with real places and people featured.
You too can be a part of the comic strip! A sponsorship gets you or your business prominently drawn into a Macon Man scene. Holy Product Placement! How is that for some brilliant marketing super powers at work?



This Friday June 11th, the official Macon Man launch party will take place at Asylum Nightclub from 6-10 PM Artist Craig Hamilton will be on hand signing copies of Macon Man with MM merchandise available for purchase. There will also be a special performance by Deonna Sage.
