The two wile away hours at the comics shop, find senior residents’ lost cats, and get chased by a local alligator-all in a summer day’s work. Soon Sunny meets Buzz, whose dad works at Gramps’ retirement resort, and thank goodness! Buzz introduces Sunny to Swamp Thing, Spiderman, and Batman, and a whole universe opens. Unfortunately, staying with Gramps means a creaky hide-a-bed, early dinners, and, well, tons of old people. In August of 1976, 10-year-old Sunny’s parents send her to Florida to visit Gramps.
