Super man, indeed
In Buffalo, there's this giant flea market that my brother likes to go to, because he can buy old records and sports memorabilia and stuff:
It's got some neat stuff in it, but I've been turned off by it recently because, well, it's a flea market. Anyhow, as I perused the aisles of air-brushed t-shirts and $30 used printers, I came upon a fellow selling comic books, including this Superman:
