Personal Picks Episode Two - Super People And People



Someone shouts "Look up in the sky".

A man in a red cape flies overhead.

A young child looks up from his comic book to catch a glimpse.

It is time for my personal picks.

  1. Love seeing William Shatner getting in on the list! Leonard Nimoy for a future list is a must.
