One of my favorite parts of Hollywood is the seedy collection of star characters that gather in front of the Chinese Theatre. They're there to hustle tourists for a buck while posing for photographs. Two of the favorite shots I have taken are Ragged Chewbacca and Heroin Elmo. Unfortunately, I don't have a photo of Spider-Bum, but he does appear in this video about another favorite, The Saga of Homeless Jack Sparrow. It's short and illuminating. If you're a fan, or not, of Hollywood Blvd it's worth watching.

Are you aware that there's an entire documentary devoted to such lost souls? It's called Confessions of a Superhero. Funny, scary and sad all at once.
