Well, Let me say this... Koreans manhwas are 90% Hunter Manwhas... Return of the Disaster-Class Hero is another addition to the OP MC Club.
It's has same backstory as Solo leveling but with a greator being as our main protagonist.
The World fell into Disaster and Chaos... Unknown red eyed monsters emerged from the seas and skies, Destroying everything humans built. The red eyed monsters appeared all over the world. People called them 'Calamities'. No Human weapon was effective against these other worldly aliens. Just when, Humanity lost every hope, They Appeared.
The 13 Zodiacs. The 12 peoples blessed by the God's were called Saints. They were given the power of 12 Zodiac signs. However, The 13th Zodiac was the strongest of All Saints and never a vessel for any god.
Our Protagonist Lee Geon is the 13th Zodiac.
Fighting alongside the 12 Saints, Lee Geon was finally at the Door of The Demon Tower. The Final Boss of the Demon Tower, Crimson Eye.
But, The Crimsom Eye was so powerful that the 12 Saints ran for their lives leaving Lee Geon behind.
The 12 Saints were blessed by Gods but their personalities were no different than demons.
They left Lee Geon who lost his arm fighting against the Demon God behind and to his death. Still, Lee Geon let's them leave and kills the Crimson Eye with his powers.
Just when it was about to over, A Knife comes flying and stabs his back.

Lee Geon doesn't want to die with his enemies living in this world.. so he never gives up.
On the other side, The 12 Saints declare that they have conquered the Demon tower and Lee Geon died a heroic death for saving mankind.
After 20 years,
The Demon Gate starts crumbling... Lee Geon kept fighting for 20 years inside the Demon Tower. The Crimson Demon was a fake god since the Tower was controlled by the Tower administrator. Lee Geon kills the Administrator.
The Demon Tower falls. Lee Geon comes out of the fallen rubble..
The news of Demon tower falling reaches every part of the Korea and the World with 'An unknown man rises from the demon tower'.
Lee Geon sees two boys, being attacked by Wolf Monsters... The boss monster was supposed on of the strongest class, Wolf Guardian. But, Lee Geon kills it in one blow. He asks the two kids to help him get familiarize with the situation. His body was returned to his prime as in 20s. He doesn't look the same old Ugly Lee Geon who lost his hairs because of his powers.
As he finished the Monster, His hands starts shaking as he sees a Snake mark on his hand.
A New awakening window screen appears before him...
'He has experienced Death and his abilities will be transferred from his previous life to present. The one who conquered the Demon Tower'.

Lee Geon remembers everything that happened to him and swears to take revenge against the 12 saints.
Now, He takes on a new identity as Lee Gun.
But, In 20 Years... All the 12 Saints have used their status as Saint's to gain authority and power over people. They converted people in their disciples. They even used Lee Geon's good name to gain sympathy from his followers. They converted his 'Will' to donate his entire wealth to charity by taking to themselves and using it to grow their own strength.
Lee Geon's speciality was Creation and Blacksmith... (man, Why does every main character has to be blacksmith these days)
He can create weapons and legendary items which were no match.
They all took his belonging and now stand on a pinnacle of Powers.
Saint of Leo is considered the Strongest Saint, than Lee Geon.
However,
Lee Geon was originally more powerful than rest of the Saints, But now He has gained even more power from Ophiuchus and the System.
With the help of his new friends, Lee Geon sets out to get his revenge and wipes the floor with every single Saint.
The world hears the news of Lee Geons Return.
And So does the Underworld !!
Even after the Fall of Demon Tower, The Gates and Monster Outbreaks where still a disaster events that took place often in countries.
Cities were labeled based on safety and levels of guilds. The Unknown Being who controlled all the Monsters including the Demon Tower is still alive and waiting for the moment to take over the World.
What is that Power?
How did Lee Geon survive for 20 years?
Who backstabbed him in the Demon Tower?
Who is Lee Geon?
What is his real identity?
Why the other Gods fear Lee Geon?
There are still many unknown and many mysteries untold. It's too early to judge the Return of Disaster-class hero to be epic.

Yet, It's clearly a great manhwa.
The story is rather expected as a Hunter manwha, A world of where monsters attacked through gates and hunters saving the world by levelling up.
The Animation however, Is great deal in this manhwa. I would say that, It's better than Solo leveling itself. The Amount of lighting and vfx fighting visuals is amazing as you go deeper into the manwha....
Actually it's one of the best artstyle for Hunter manwha.
With 30+ chapters and still ongoing... Return of the Disaster-Class Hero is something you should look forward to. It's full of funny scenes and you will amazed by its visuals. It's better to call it Joker Hunter Return manhwa. I mean, It will put a smile on your face. (Nevermind. Bad Joke.)
Join the Fun.
