Captain Hip and Sunshine (hippie heroes mutated by a government experiment)

[size=-1]hi everyone,
I've just heard that there are comic book carecters out there called;
Captain Hip and Sunshine (hippie heroes mutated by a government experiment)
(I'm not making this up!!)
now i'm just thinkin...how the hell would that work?!
what are they gonna fight crime with?
Chaching villians in an old beaten down VW
hitting them with flower power? What?

i can't find any good info on 'm, anyone know what this is about?
i'd love to see and read 'm


Anyway Peace

They were only in a short series about 7 years ago. But it was a good one. His name was Fred, he had super speed and agility, he was married to Sunshine and they had a child named "Gadfly". The Marvel Encyclopeadia lists his status/whereabout as "unknown" so he could still be alive.

So... now you all know, I'm a comic book geek as well as a hiking geek. Please insult me at your will.

 

Thanks dude, do you perhaps have an image of these folks?

they were part of marvel's lost generation.
