The Naked Man
Credits to the writers of How I Met Your Mother. This stuff is poetry...
"By the sum of his parts he is just a man
But what he does with those parts he becomes so much more
He may not fit society’s definition of a hero...
... He lives in the shadows
Is he a dream, truth, fiction, damnation, salvation?
He is all these things and none of them;
For he is – the Naked Man"
Paired so perfectly with evocative imagery - a balding middle-ager in a trench-coat striding down the dimly lit sidewalk, stopping only long enough to purchase a hotdog from a street vendor before fading into the dark of night.
The quintessential misunderstood ally of justice - a hundred protagonists of the comic strip and silver screen rolled into one.
Right, and now everyone knows how far behind the times I am with all these serials...
