[MegoSteve]

I bought this funny piece of kid-oriented exercise equipment from Fire Marshal Bill out of his great Superman find, mostly because the packaging art made me laugh pretty hard because it features an iconic Superman image redrawn in a really funny way...

I love the line drawings of Superman using the rope on the back. Nice reuse of that classic Adams art too!
