Wetzler (comic book)

"Wetzler" was a comic book produced by Vigilante Comics in 1992 that was not part of the Sprinkles continuity. It was a flat out mockery of a comic strip distributed at the local comic book store. The book, like the strip, starred a man named Wetzler who was a self proclaimed "Fanboy Hunter". There were 4 issues produced.
==Issues==
===Issue #1 (1992)===
Wetzler is introduced. He is a comic retailer sick of Mutant, Punisher, McSpidey and X-stuff and decides to rid the world of the people who support what is becoming a trend in stupidity. In his comic shop, a boy asks for multiple editions of the Uncanny Wolverine #1. Wetzler takes out a gun and shoots the comics. The boy, named Nerkel, yells about their poor condition and he's going to sue. Wetzler then reads a flier for Marvel fans to come to a downtown meeting to discuss new Punisher and Spidey titles. Wetzler crashes the party with a gigantic gun, but the leader of the meeting drops a rope net on him.
===Issue #2 (1992)===
Wetzler, trapped under the net, pushes a button on his W belt buckle, and a little pair of scissors comes out and cuts the net. Then the leader sends the masses of Marvelites after Wetzler. Wetzler blasts them all with his gun, called the FleshEater 4000. The leader calls "him" - a tubby Spider-man comes in to battle Wetzler.
===Issue #3 (May 1992)===
The "Spider-Man' knocks the gun out of Wetzler's hands, and tries to punch him, but swings too slow. Wetzler punches him in the gut, kicks him in the face, knocking him down. Wetzler then unmasks him to discover that he is Stan Lee. Wetzler pulls a gun on him, but the leader whacks Wetzler over the head. Later, Wetzler is chained up in the Marvel torture chamber and the leader plays a Marvel brainwashing tape for him. The tape doesn't work and Wetzler breaks his chains. Then a door opens and the killing robot Fandroid comes out.
===Issue #4 (May 1992)===
This one page issue is the quick end of the series. Wetzler is shot dead by the Fandroid. The end.
