Those lumps and swellings on his right knee are medically worrying.

Five volumes later, he went bald.
That blurb simply does not shut up, does it?

“And anyone who disrespects my mullet will be pummelled by this planet!”
The characters name is “Hope Hubris”? Bloody hell, no wonder grew up to be a tyrant.

Judging by his equipment, he’s been sent by Dyno-Rod.

@DaveM: at first glance I thought the character’s name was ‘Killer King’, which would’ve been infinitely preferable.

Apparently Hopey is packing two supersoakers and an iPad strapped to his thigh.

@ Dead Stuff: For a waif he looks amazingly unwaifish on the Volume 1 cover.

From the look of what the outer-space wind is making his cape do, wearing a loincloth was a bold choice. And it’s lucky he gelled his mullet so firmly.

Given that this series is called “Bio of a Space TYRANT”, there’s a perfect explanation for this cover: Propaganda.
After all, was there ever a dictator, strongman or tyrant who wasn’t depicted as a superhuman badass in the art of their own country while in power?
Short answer: No.

“Bio of a Space Tyrant”? Oh. I thought it said “Bid” of a Space Tyrant, and I figured he’d just gotten that planet, the gun and maybe the haircut at auction. And he’d gotten a good deal because everyone else was afraid to bid against him. And that’s why he’s so proud.

This…er…doesn’t seem to me to be much of a solution to the Syrian refugee crisis. Ah, but, feel free to disagree.

Hope Hubris was very proud of his mullet, but after losing his hair later in life became known by the nickname Shaun Schadenfreude.

What really went on in Mitt Romney’s mind when he imagined himself as a credible Presidential candidate.

Could we please add a new tag: “Buffalo Shot”.

…or in this case: “Dingle Dangle” or “Wang Hang” or “Ball Fall”.

Killer. King. Interstellar terror… but first, he was an accountant named Melvin Podznofsky.

“Sir, there’s a disturbing rumour from the inexplicable slum are all our sci-fi cities have”
‘What’s the rumour?’
“Well, they’re saying there’s a homeless waif around.”
‘Damn! I want three teams of guards, heavily armed. Team one will prevent unauthorised access to the gyms, Team two will guard all legal steroid sources and come down hard on the illegal ones’
“And team three sir?”
‘They’ll be protecting the hairdressers, god help us if the waif gets his hands on some conditioner and a styling wand’
