I have a secret to tell you. I know it’s hard to believe, but I”m kind of a big comic book geek. No, no. It’s true. Thing is, as much as I love comic books, my least favorite superhero of all time has always been Superman. By extrapolation, that includes Superboy, Supergirl, Krypto the Super Dog and yes, even Beppo the Super Monkey. So while I am in love with the CW’s The Flash (best …
