Superpowers meet absurdity in cosmic parody chaos.
"God Hates Astronauts" is an unapologetic, riotous trip that's perfect if you savor satire with a side of superpowers. Its absurdity knows no bounds; imagine a world where the strangest tangents are the main storyline. With a heavy dose of humor that might remind you of late-night comedy skits, it's not your conventional superhero tale – it pokes fun at everything. If you're in the mood for some off-kilter comic book reading, where every turn of the page delivers a hearty chuckle or a bewildered shake of the head, this could be your next favorite read.

Description
God Hates Astronauts follows the story of a group of incompetent, small-minded, super powered narcissists called "The Power Persons Five" who are hired by NASA to stop all farmers from launching themselves into space in homemade rocket ships. Unfortunately for NASA, this goal is scarcely even addressed and the book focuses more on extramarital affairs, bank-robbing owls, big gross swollen heads, ghost cow heads, olde tyme boxers, tigers eating cheeseburgers in the Crab Nebula, buffalo judges, and tons of aggressive swearing. Not so much a superhero book as it is a parody of basically everything and a celebration of weird that is jam-packed with references to RoboCop and Die Hard.
