It’s a bird, it’s a plane—no, it’s Superman Day! A celebration of the iconic superhero who’s been saving the day since his debut in the comics. With his red cape, blue suit, and an “S” that stands for hope, Superman’s here to remind us about truth, justice, and the ultimate cheat code: flying. Fans celebrate by diving into comic book adventures, donning capes, or maybe even attempting to leap a tall building (not recommended!). So channel your inner Kryptonian, strike a heroic pose, and remember—great power comes with great responsibility.
