What do you do after being kidnapped by Captain Euchre?
(a) Lose your wife because she doesn’t believe you and thinks you were with another woman;
(b) Lose your job because your boss doesn’t believe you and thinks you were just ditching work;
(c) Lose your self-respect because no-one will believe you when you tell them, dammit, you really were kidnapped;
(d) all of the above.
If you picked “(d)”, then you can relate to Robert Strovesco, A/K/A “The Plumber”, A/K/A the damp defender, A/K/A The U-Bend in the pipe of life, A/K/A Ronin Force’s least wanted.
In a pathetic attempt to communicate with his son (who was taken by his wife when she left), Robert begins recording a blog, which sets him thinking about the path his life must take if he is to regain his good name, his wife, and most importantly, his job. He decides the only thing to do is don a homemade mask, call himself The Plumber. Is it possible, being the son of a bona fide superhero to give yourself superpowers? Will the seemingly insane combination of water and electricity do the job? How about the sheer stupidity of putting a wrench in a microwave oven? The answer, of course, is no. But that’s not going to stop him!
After a continuing string of misadventures, the Plumber got the shock of his life when his long-lost father, the Electrician returned from the Other-Time Zone. Does the Plumber finally have someone willing to show him the ropes and help him become the superhero he dreams of being? Probably not. Will he ever get to score with “the Fantabuliciousness Girl” Almost certainly not. Will it be entertaining to watch? Absolutely!
