In Living Color season 4 episode 8, titled Handi-Man Returns, brings back the beloved superhero character portrayed by Damon Wayans. In this episode, Handi-Man is called upon to save the day once again, but he faces a new foe: his own ego.

Handi-Man, who uses a wheelchair and has super strength, has become a bit too full of himself and starts to alienate his friends and colleagues. He flaunts his new movie deal, ignores those who helped him become popular and even demeans his own brother, who also has a disability.

But when an actual villain shows up and threatens to destroy the city, Handi-Man must put his personal issues aside and team up with his former allies to defeat the enemy. The episode highlights the importance of humility and respect for others, even when one has achieved success.

Aside from the Handi-Man storyline, the episode also features other comedic skits. One skit involves a group of white men who try to act cool and "black" but fail miserably. Another skit showcases a man who has a condition where he involuntarily repeats everything someone says to him, leading to some humorous misunderstandings.

Overall, In Living Color season 4 episode 8 was a fun and lighthearted installment that delighted fans of the show, especially those who were fond of Handi-Man. The episode's message of humility and respect added a positive note to the comedy and made it more than just a simple superhero spoof.
