BIO: In our world, college student Wayne Bird was a depressed, directionless, and alcoholic writer. Transported to the plague-ridden Earth of a parallel reality, however, Wayne found his purpose as a freedom fighting journalist. Nearly 150 years later, semi-retired and working as a creative writing teacher at Green City High School, Mr. Bird finds himself face to face with the Skyrat, a superhero he made up when he was only seven years old.
