The trailer for 'Super'.

In my previous lesson, sir mentioned to me that there was a film released around a year or two ago called 'Super' with a character who turns himself into a superhero. Watching the trailer made me realise that it was quite similar to my idea in ways such as it was a hybrid of genres due to its gore and comedy, 'hero' having no powers and cliche superhero voice over! Here is the trailer :


At 1:05 of this clip (The 'crack' on the characters head), it presented the idea in my head of adding comic book like features into my project.

 I had read an article on how comic books are written (which isn't completely relevant) but i was using this to increase my knowledge on how comic book textual transitions (captions) are composed. Here is a screenshot of the article and a few examples of captions i have produced that i may put over my opening sequence.



This film has made me think that maybe instead of brute force and use of hands, my character should have a weopen at hand in the same manner that he has a wrench. I also had a look at the opening sequence of this film however it was 100% animation which was of no use to me but here it is anyway.
