Welcome to the Second League, the club for superheroes who just weren't cool enough. —Nobody
|
 |
Second League was a weekly Web Comic written and drawn by TV Troper Insanity Inside. It can be found here, but it hasn't updated since 2011.
Our story begins when a young man called Larry accidentally reveals his secret: he has superpowers. His friend Steve, who turns out to be a superhero himself, persuades him to join the League, a group of wacky superheroes, lead by the mysterious, powerful and slightly disgusting Pooperman...
Or maybe it begins when a boy named Bobby is rescued by Pooperman. A few days later he overhears Larry and Steve's conversation and decides to become Steve's sidekick...
Either way, Hilarity Ensues.

- Animal Superheroes: Super Rat
