Not sure what kind of slang is being used here or what country it's from, but it completely destroys the read for me. The main character's name is also something I'm not familiar with and is very grating.
I'm out on Page 2, as this thang ain't my cup, bro. Word out.
there's a Character Label on page four that I'm pretty sure is supposed to be MOTHER but it reads SUPACHAV. That's as far as I got. No simpathy for Supachav. What ever he is.

I liked it, I know the US audience won't understand a lot of it, but coming from Scotland I know the Chav thing all too well (Neds/Minks where I'm from). Again the US guys won't get it, but he kinda reminded me of a young Rab C Nesbitt.
My only issue is whether he's a super hero or not? He doesn't have any powers, apart from the power of dillusion, so not sure it works in that way. But I'm prepared to let is pass as it's good fun
Lol, I liked the start of this but thought it would fizzle out. But kudos to the writer, it kept going well and I enjoyed it. Ironically touches on mankind's greatest threat which is overpopulation - it causes all the problems we have...sigh.

Chav = Council Housed and Violent. Basically, a punk from the projects.
I actually liked this numbskull's incredibly misinformed concern for the environment, but the joke started wearing thin when the young mother showed up. And I wasn't quite sure what was going on with the shoulder barge scene. This might have worked better if you placed the Chav in a setting where he would be more out of place like a nice neighborhood or some upscale party. Better yet, team Supachav up with Supermick and let the stereotypes rumble.
This one is quite good. An absurd satire. I doubt that anyone from the US, or probably anywhere else but the UK, will get it. But it works well enough to get the intention of the idea across. Perhaps work on some of the jokes, add more irony.
Being from Ireland, I too get this. Yay! And I liked it. Funny and I think it'd work well on screen. Always a gamble trying something only people of a certain geographic region will understand, so kudos for giving it a go. For me, at least, it paid off.
The "fam" thing was beat to death for me. Maybe it works for Brits and Aussies, but it would be like writing and American script where every line ended with buddy or pal. Same with the innit.
A hiccup - twice - when discussing the environment. e.g.,
Quoted Text
One of the biggest abusers of the environment is population control.
Population Control is not the problem - over population is and population control is the solution. Had this error twice.

Dave, I believe the errors were intentional for the sake of comedy. I could be wrong.
