Plot
Enzo Ceccotti is a thief who lives in Rome's slum Tor Bella Monaca. One day he jumps into the Tiber in order to escape from the police and falls into a barrel of radioactive waste, which infects him giving him superpowers, like exceptional strength and healing abilities.
He gradually loses his disinterest towards people thanks to a mentally handicapped girl, who has mistaken him for the Japanese manga hero Hiroshi Shiba, and gradually shifts from supercriminal to superhero in order to save her from a psycho gangster known as "The Gipsy".
