Do not confuse with [[Muggles]] or [[Badass Normal]], nor with the Italian comic book (later adapted to a radio show and eventually to a [[Live Action TV]] show) superhero spoof of the same name.▼
''[[normalman]]'' is a limited series of American comic books created by Jim Valentino. It began in November, 1983 as a four page story in Cerebus #56 and #57 before being launched as a full color 12 issue series (January, 1984- December, 1985) which was published by Aardvark-Vanaheim before moving to Denis Loubet's Renegade Press. The story of normalman would conclude in ''normalman'' 3D Annual #1.
Line 8 ⟶ 9:
The series spoofed many comic book companies per issue, including [[DC Comics|DC]], [[Marvel Comics|Marvel]], [[EC Comics|EC]] and [[Harvey Comics|Harvey]], as well as doing parodies of ''[[The Spirit]]'', ''[[Elf Quest]]'', ''[[Asterix]]'', ''[[Star Wars]]'' and ''[[The Wizard of Oz (film)|The Wizard of Oz]]''. The series was first collected in trade paperback by Slave Labor Graphics. Recently{{when}}, a new trade paperback which included several followups was published by Image Comics. Both trades are in black and white.
