Roadshow organizer Jim Munroe is doing a No Media Kings edition of his cult-classic novel Flyboy Action Figure Comes With Gasmask, and indie filmmakers have made short movie-style trailers to promote the corporate crime-fighting superheroes novel. They will be shown between the performances.
 
“Jim Munroe has written the first novel to harness the energy, idealism and cartoon inspired playfulness of the new wave of culture jammers. It’s about time we have some superheroes to save us after the post-irony meltdown — forces of corporate darkness, beware.” -Naomi Klein, author No Logo
