Description
In Half a Hero, the legendary comic took on a slice of 20th-century Americana that still resonates today: the suburbs. Red plays Ben Dobson, a magazine writer whose boss approves of Ben because he lives in a cramped Manhattan apartment instead of "the slums of tomorrow": the suburbs. So, of course, when Ben moves his family to a sprawling housing development, he struggles hilariously to keep that fact a secret.
