Plastic man
Laughs galore with plastic man and his pal woozy!
Seemingly out of nowhere came the purple viking, a fair-haired, muscular destroyer whose breed was believed to have vanished a thousand years ago… A predatory giant out of the dead past against the modern world's plastic man in a desperate battle with no holds barred!
Where to, woozy?
North point, plas! I'm off on a vacation!
A vacation! You? When were you ever on anything else?
Plas, that's not fair! You know how hard i work, how many cases i solve for you… Er… Help you solve, the crooks i catch!
A man gets tired! He needs a change!
Very convincing! Okay… But stay out of trouble!
Me? Trouble? Nonsense! All i want is some fresh air, golf, and relaxation! So long, plas!
So long! I'll be wondering how long it'll take you to get into some kind of jam!
North point… A peaceful strip of land jutting out into the sea! And on the horizon… A viking ship!
Land ho!
What strange land is this?
Prepare to go ashore!
