Robert Wrind

Robert "Bob" Wrind is a student at Quadropolis University, in greater Quadropolis, and is the secret identity of Watermelon-Man ("Watermelon-Man" #1 & 2).
Robert appears in "Watermelon-Man" #1 (2014), riding a bike to a kid's birthday party. His part-time job as Watermelon-Man allows him to exhibit his strange power (materializing watermelons out of thin air) and entertain (and feed) kids. In the issue, Robert contemplates if his power came from the amount of watermelon seeds he ate as a kid, while his siblings just spit them out.
Robert also remembered idolizing heroes of the day when he was a kid, specifically Superb Guy, the Astonishing Arachnoid, and Flying Rodent Man. He would read comic books in bed and want to be a hero himself.
In the present day, at a birthday party, he notices a suspicious man sneaking out of a neighbors house with a TV and a bag of other stolen items. Robert leaps into action, knocks out the man with a tossed watermelon, and when the kids cheer, he considers a career as a superhero.
In "Watermelon Man" #2 (2015), we see Robert on the campus of Quadropolis University, where he runs into his friends Tara and Akram.  Akram offers up a game of ultimate and Bob accepts as long as they've studied sufficiently for the next day's test.  Bob then gets an instant test as a hero as Two-Ply starts stealing the money from the fountain in the middle of the campus plaza.  Watermelon-Man confronts him but ultimately loses, causing Bob to feel a little down about his choice to be a hero.
