First Appearance: Bloodface #1 (Comicide Comics, 1st January 2000)
Powers/Abilities: Unknown
History: Bloodface is the leader of the Bloodgroup, a team of somewhat strange heroes who operate out of the Haemoglobe, a satellite orbiting the Earth. He is full of deep, wordy introspection about his fellow team members.
Comments: Created by Martin Malloy. Bloodface is a parody of the Image style of comics, self-published in New Zealand by Martin. By all accounts it's extremely funny, but sadly I don't know a whole lot more about it than this. Martin also publishes another title called Season To Taste, an anthology piece. In #2 he introduces new characters Jetpack Jack, Adventure Girl and Monkeyboy, and Tommy Trouble. Since I know even less about them than I do about Bloodface, I've yet to give them entries (I'm not sure they even qualify for a superhero listing website), but if someone can provide information or images for any of them, that might change.
