In honor of tonight's "Bored to Death" season finale (9 p.m., HBO), which prominantely features some Super Ray comic fans, we're attaching here a PDF of an actual "Super Ray" comic book: "The Birth of Super Ray."
Zach Galifianakis plays cartoonist Ray on the show, and the comic book super hero is drawn in his likeness.
Enjoy.

Zach Galifianakis was on "Conan" last night and talked about what it was like growing up in a small North Carolina town with a dad who was very "kissy" and who liked to skip. Funny interview. The stuff about his dad comes nearer the end.
Zach Galifianakis has signed a deal with HBO to produce a new comedy series for the network.
Galifianakis, who already co-stars on HBO's 'Bored to Death' with Ted Danson and Jason Schwartzman, has created (along with Mike Gibbons) a new comedy show starring comedian Brody Stevens to be directed by Jonathan Krisel ('Saturday Night Live,' 'Portlandia').
According to Deadline.com, the new show has already wrapped production.
Deadline describes the new show as a mocumentary starring Stevens as himself, which chronicles one day in the life of the comedian. Galifianakis is expected to guest star on the series.
Galifianakis, a Wilkesboro native who attended NCSU, has had two great guest hosting spots on 'SNL' and stole many scenes in the hit film 'The Hangover.' The sequel, 'The Hangover Part II,' is scheduled for a May 26 release.
I thought Zach Galifianakis was great (again) hosting SNL last night. His monologue was bizarre and hilarious, but maybe the thing that cracked up the most was Zach interviewing for a new assistant. Watch that sketch below, then head over to SNL to watch the rest of the show. Be sure to catch the ending, where Zach shows up to say goodnight with a mohawk, lamenting the cutting of the "Mr. T" sketch (during his first hosting job, Zach shaved his beard for the final skit).
Zach Galifianakis is hosting 'Saturday Night Live' again this weekend, and I can't wait. The Wilkesboro native (and Wolfpacker) was great last time he hosted.
Here are the promos for the show, featuring Galifianakis and Andy Samberg.
There's a video circulating in which Ricky Gervais crashes a British morning show interview featuring Zach Galifianakis and Robert Downey Jr. promoting their new movie, "Due Date." The video is funny and everything, but all I could think while watching it was, "Why the blerg did Zach Galifanakis shave his head?!" Is it for a part? I will never get used to that. Apparently, Galifianakis shaved it just before his Jimmy Fallon appearance earlier this week, but the Gervais incident was my first time seeing it. 
NC homeboy Zach Galifianakis is all over the place these days promoting his new movie "Due Date." Last week, he lit up on HBO's "Real Time with Bill Maher," and last night he was a guest on "The Daily Show with Jon Stewart."
Zach told a really funny story about the last time he ran into Jon Stewart, but first he talked about how he used to hitchhike when he was in college (at N.C. State) in the early 90s. When Stewart pointed out that people learned in the 70s not to do that, Zach said, "I was trying to bring it back."
Watch the video below.
Actor, comedian, and North Carolina native Zach Galifianakis appeared on HBO's "Real Time with Bill Maher" Friday night, and his discussion with the show's host briefly touched on his uncle's 1972 U.S. Senate race versus Jesse Helms.
Maher began by teasing Zach about living in the North Carolina mountains ("You look like you live out in the woods in North Carolina," Maher joked, referring to Zach's scruffy beard). Maher teased him further: "You live out there with the abortion bombers and the like, crazy people." Zach: "Yeah, I think politically I don't probably fit in with the people, but they're very nice people." Zach then gave a frightened glance toward the camera, for a laugh.
Maher then segued into the Helms race. . . .
Medium (8pm, CBS) - "Medium" got the sad news this week that CBS has cut this season's run from 22 to 13 episodes. Not a good sign. Tonight, doom looms when Allison's visions flash to a specific future time. S
he soon fears that a catastrophic event will take place then, but she has neither the know-how nor the power to prevent it (could she be seeing the cancellation of her show?). Clancy Brown guest stars.
Primetime: What Would You Do (9pm, ABC) - Scenarios tonight include a gay teen being bullied and a high school boy being tutored by a sexually aggressive older woman.
The Good Guys (9pm, Fox) - Jack and Dan expose a deadly criminal conspiracy while investigating a corrupt oil company, and the case could become problematic for Liz's boyfriend.
Real Time with Bill Maher (10pm, HBO) - Bill's guests tonight are commentator Margaret Hoover, anchor Lawrence O’Donnell, journalist Reihan Salam, former President Jimmy Carter and actor Zach Galifianakis (right).
Teach: Tony Danza (10pm, A&E) - The school issues a uniform policy and Danza shows his support by adhering to the dress code himself. He also teaches some students how to box, but realizes it was a mistake when it leads to a locker room fight. And one of his students gets in trouble for giving the assistant principal a dog treat (ouch).
