CHARACTER PROFILES
YOU HAVE SELECTED:
DISCO JUL
 Disco Jul is the average superhero with a hairdo overdue. But polyester's glow makes his eyes glimmer. He fights crime with his own rulebook, with no support from local law enforcement. No pension plan either.
APPEARED IN ISSUES :
# 1 to present.
MISSED ISSUES :
Missed the "Phantometta" Arc (issues 71 to 77). But at the end we learned that he was transformed in that pebble box that Falling Out Boy carried around. So he was technically there.
QUOTE :
"To the Disco Mobile!"
"Fighting Scene!"
"That's not a job for a sidekick."
"Flush him! Flush him away I say!" (abandoned after issue #4).
"Hmm... You'll need a toilet brush for that..." (starting with issue #5).
POPULARITY :
A lot of mixed emotions for Disco Jul forcing his popularity to take a slight plunge. 4 out of 10.
TOOLS :
Spells (can only be used in 3 locations: New York subways, Hell and Peru).
Good knowledge of laws of gravity.
Static Power (by rubbing his afro).
Afro Genie living in his hair.
Hypnotic, repetitive disco dancing.
A friendly approach to troubled salesmen.
His retro fashion taste causes the enemy (and the reader) to underestimate his true potential.
PLOTS CONCERNING HIM :
All of them. Most memorable were issues #92 and #111 where we went in detail about his adoptive background. Some fans think we used it because we had no other ideas and because the penciller was sick and we had some full-text pages in there... and also because in issue #118 we went against everything we had said in those issues.
THINGS TO KNOW ABOUT HIM :
He goes crazy for popcorn, he can't remember all his enemies, in his spare time he's raising a turtle farm, he's not very good with biology, and he'll always run for, and towards, a good deal!
ARCH ENEMIES :
Satan, God, Stan Wi, The Stinky Muddy Slobby Coward Villager Man, various leprechauns, 2 Capricorns, El Slug, Peruvians, many plush animals, activists, doctors, pharmacists, one blind gynaecologist, many foreigners.
ROLES IN THE COMIC :
Hunky Hero on the loose. Occasionally enemy to his own ploys.
HIS WAGE :
2.99$ per adventure.
WHY HE DOES THIS JOB :
He gets to wear high heels.
PAST MERITS :
None.
SPIN-OFFS :
Disco Jul: The Therapy Adventures.
Also, Disco Jul is translated in multiple languages, including French, British, Australian, Spanish, Tamil, Suomi, Kentuckian, North Dakotaish, Columbian (British Columbian), Halifaxian, Manchesterish. Boycotted in Turkey and Qatar (they were supporting Peru, but what did they gain, really?)
