Sammy J's award-winning, mind-blowing tale returns with bonus content and fresh surprises!

30 years ago, Sammy J traded comics with his school gardener. 10 years ago, he wrote a show about it. How does an awkward nerd end up with a federal policeman searching his attic? Why does Sammy owe his marriage to the United Nations? And how did he insert himself into a Parliamentary maiden speech?

Hero Complex is the five-star, must-see show of Sammy J’s career - a real-life, hilarious comic book adventure that proves sometimes truth really is stranger than fiction.

Directed by Chris McDonald
