THE WORLD'S FRIENDLIEST HERO
Strange visitor from another suburb ... Friendlier than a happy puppy ... able to meet new people in a single mouse click ... Look! ... up in the sky ... it's Superchum, World's friendliest superhero!
The bastion of brotherhood, amiable avenger, convivial crusader and harbinger of firm handshakes, Superchum leads the Mighty Befrienders
on a mission to make friends with the entire world, one person at a time.
The Adventures of Superchum
chronicles the life of Shmitty Atkinson, a former social worker turned superhero. After discovering his hidden mutant powers, Shmitty dons the mantle of Superchum
and vows to make friends with the entire world. Aiding him in his quest are Friend and Girlfriend, his two super sidekicks. The Befrienders make their home in the quaint and quiet town of Suburbs, an almost ideal replica of the "American Dream." But they constantly discover that "making friends" isn't as easy as it looks, even in the nigh Utopian community that Suburbs is supposed to be.
To achieve their quest, the Befrienders follow the Paths of Chumliness: a charity and kindness based philosophy that centers on the precepts of how to be a good friend. Using the Paths of Chumliness, the bastions of brotherhood bring a warm smile to a cold, hard world in dire need of a friend to lean on!
The long road to Chumliness follows winding paths that are relatively simple in nature. Somehow, that makes the paths even more difficult to follow. Thus, Superchum's catchphrase is "Stay the Paths of Chumliness, my friends."
This long running superhero webcomic
has been a defining part of Delaware pop culture for more than 25 years. Superchum and the Mighty Befrienders have charted a path through the absurd while continually asking the question: what if a hero wasn't out to save the world, but instead was here to be your friend?
