Does T read comics? And if so, does he read Kick-Ass? They are making a movie of it and they released the first teaser over the night. It looks AWESOME! I sent DH the link as a present for his lunch break. I'm sure he's stoked!

I think it's just a one-shot story. It's set in the "real world" (no super powers, etc.) and it's about a comic nerd teenager who dons a costume and fights crime. VERY graphic (the first time he tries he gets beaten so badly he's in the hospital for weeks, requires multiple surgeries and intense physical therapy), lots of curses, but really funny and thoroughly awesome. It's by Mark Millar. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kick-ass
ETA: There are a few other heroes, including an 11 year old girl who wields katanas and curses like a sailor (best character, IMO).
