Freddie Mercury made this Flash Gordon superhero shirt pretty famous.
The Mercury superhero thing didn’t stop with that “Flash” shirt. These photos below Mercury seemed to have somewhat of a superhero fettish. Check out these awesome photos of Freddie riding Darth Vader from Star Wars during a 1980 Queen tour stop.
Freddie Mercury also once rode on the shoulders of Superman…
Here’s the awesome video evidence of Queen performing “We Will Rock You” in 1979 at the Hammersmith Odeon while Freddie is being carried by “The Man of Steel” Superman.
Finally, how about Freddie riding the shoulders of the great Santa Claus??? Yup, he did that too…
