Superman Week: Monty Python, "Bicycle Repairman"


Hello everyone! In celebration and anticipation of the new Man of Steel movie coming to theaters this Friday, I've decided to spend a week in tribute to the granddaddy of modern-day superheroes. Let's get to it--"up, up, and away!"

I start the week off with this fun clip from Monty Python's Flying Circus. In a town where everyone is Superman, how do you stand out? By being Bicycle Repairman, noble fixer of all things bicycle. A hilarious clip I didn't know existed until a couple of months ago, despite being a Python fan. Enjoy!

Cyberpunk guru Bruce Sterling was moved to write a story inspired by this piece.
