Comparing yourself to one of the most-recognizable characters this side of Mickey Mouse is something that deserves an equally boisterous track. You’ve either got to come hard or don’t come at all and keep it an inside joke or something.

I guess the cat’s out of the bag. In addition to discussing my relationship with my father and how that’s shaped me, Son of the Beast is influenced by the series My Hero Academia.
