Everyone dreams of being a hero but very few actually do anything about it. Enter Nathaniel Hawkins, a university janitor who plays a few too many video games, drinks a little too much beer, and desperately needs to get his life in order. That is, until he discovers how to travel in time and be a hero to those in the past. His adventures will pit him against a flesh-hungry robot monster, intergalactic space lords vying for power, and an evil emperor bent on destroying the planet Earth. This is the campy tongue-in-cheek tale of how a super-hero is born, the mistakes he makes along the way and the impact he has on all of the lives he touches. He is the ordinary guy who takes a stand, he is Futureman!
