The Case of the cosmic comic

Homer Price’s good friend Freddy is a true-blue hero worshipper whose idol is the azure-caped Super-Duper. After meeting the super-human hero in person at the Centerburg movie theatre, the boys encounter him again - only this time the Super-Duper is badly in need of their assistance. From the book “Homer Price” by Robert McCloskey.
