    Super Museum

    Southern Illinois is pretty boring, that is until you get to Metropolis, you know the hometown of Superman! I mean, of course Clark Kent, Lois Lane, Jimmy Olsen and Perry White. It takes me back, “who’s faster than a speeding bullet, more powerful than a locomotive, able to leap tall buildings in a single bound?” “Look! Up in the sky! It’s a bird! It’s a plane! It’s Superman!” Let’s take the leap to Metropolis, IL to visit the incredible Super Museum in search of Truth, Justice and the American Way! Up, Up and Away!
