Dreams of Flying

Herb Collins doesn’t just dream about flying, he takes to the skies.  And as soon as this self-conscious grocery store manager can figure out a proper secret identity, he’ll be the biggest superhero Cleveland has ever seen! 

But be careful what you wish for.  When Herb dons his costume and takes on his first real fight, he learns a lesson he’ll never forget.

This short story, written ten years before Hungry Gods was ever conceived, features characters that have become lore in the Identity Crisis Universe.
