The man, The legend
 
 
Just another kindergartener walking home from his first day, Spencer Hook had not yet learned the importance of looking both ways before he crossed the street. Little did he know a truck carrying radioactive waste had violently swerved to avoid a collision with this stupidly innocent boy and covered him with radioactive waste.
Flash forward to the present day; Spencer is trying to live his life to the fullest despite his hidden identity as the "Clark Kent" of Penticton. He has played almost every sport during his childhood years but the one that he enjoys the most is Hockey. His busy life playing hockey, volunteering with Special Olympics, and juggling the many subjects he takes at school is a tough task even for the Super Hook himself. The many powers he possesses are seemingly useless because there is one that continues to elude him: the ability to combat stress. Each day there is one block that Spencer cringes at the very sound of, like the sound of nails on a chalkboard. Each day he can feel himself getting weaker and weaker at the hands of his kryptonite: Math class. In his books, math is death and there is no super power that can change his understanding of the subject. When Spencer graduates and rids himself from the clutches of his kryptonite, he plans to pursue a career in physiotherapy, retiring from his job as Super Hook, and leading a normal life free of radioactivity.
