Who Was That Masked Man?

The Waukegan Public Library posted a picture on Facebook showing that in the spirit of the times statue of Ray Bradbury has been outfitted with a mask.

They say:

Thank you to Waukegan High School soon to be graduate, Austin Cantu, for making sure Ray Bradbury is doing his part in stopping the spread!

In this case the masked man is riding a silver bullet…

[Thanks to John King Tarpinian for the story.]

  1. Actually, Elton John/Bernie Taupin works better

    And I think it’s going to be a long, long time
    Before the lockdown lets me out again
    I’m not the man I am stuck at home
    Oh, no, no, no
    It’s masked Bradbury
    Bradbury, stuck up on a statue there alone
    And I think its going to be a long, long time
    Before that library is full again
    I think I’ve read all my books at home
    Oh no, no, no
    It’s masked Bradbury
    Bradbury sitting on a rocket there alone

  2. I saw Rachel Bloom’s name on the list of donations for the statue. It was not in the “Something Wicked This Way Comes” category, which would have made the inside jokes even funnier.

    Austin Cantu is awesome, might be going just as far as Ray Bradbury after graduation.
