E-Man

E-Man is a fictional comic book superhero created by writer Nicola Cuti and artist Joe Staton for Charlton Comics in 1973. Though the character's original series was short-lived, the lightly humorous hero has become a cult-classic sporadically revived by various independent comics publishers.

The character premiered in E-Man #1, the first of ten issues (cover-dated Oct. 1973 - Sept. 1975) published by the Derby, Connecticut-based Charlton Comics. For the last four, artist Staton created painted covers, a comics rarity at the time.

The stories were humorous and lighthearted, in the style of Plastic Man, and E-Man (being energy based in power) could literally take any form he wished.
