Skateman was a comic book produced by Neal Adams in 1983, and published by Pacific Comics. It is primarily known for its artistic failings; in 1990, Kitchen Sink Press's World's Worst Comics Awards listed Skateman #1 as the worst comic of the past 25 years. [1].
Billy Moon is a martial arts enthusiast and Vietnam veteran who has found a career in roller derby. In the wake of the murder of his best friend by biker gangs, Moon sinks into depression, only to meet a young "beaner" boy named Paco. Paco's comic-book collection inspires Moon to wrap a scarf around his face and fight crime with his roller skates.
Only one issue of Skateman was ever published.
