The Dapper Dynamo is an animated short film which acts as a love letter and parody of the classic superhero genre. Inspired by comic books and television animation of the 1960's, Its over the top characters and limited animation style are meant to transport the viewer back to this world and celebrate its heightened sense of action and childlike wonder. The characters are revealed to be the wish fulfillment of two best friends as they play out fantasy stories and adventures together.
