Well, look at this, Jay Garrick shirt. Never thought I’d be talkin’ ‘bout this kinda stuff. But my grandson, he’s all gaga over this fella, this… Jay Garrick. Says he’s some kinda fast fella, wears a shirt with a lightnin’ bolt. Sounds like a whole lotta hooey to me, but kids these days, they got their own ideas.
So, what’s the big deal ‘bout this here shirt? Seems like everyone and their dog is sellin’ ‘em. You got yer plain ones, the ones with jest the lightnin’, and then you got yer fancy ones, all colorful and such. My grandson, he wants the one with the fella runnin’, looks like he’s got a pot on his head. I told him, “Boy, that fella looks like he got a chamber pot stuck on his head.” He jest laughed.
Now, where do ya get these shirts? Seems like everywhere ya look. Online, that’s where the young’uns go. They sit there, tappin’ away on them phones, and poof! A shirt shows up at the door. Magic, I tell ya, pure magic. Back in my day, you went to the store, you picked somethin’ out, you paid fer it, and that was that. No tappin’, no magic, jest good ol’ fashioned shoppin’.
And the prices! Land sakes, some of these shirts cost more than a whole week’s worth of groceries. I told my grandson, “Boy, you ain’t gettin’ no shirt costin’ more than a good pair of work boots!” He just pouted. You can find ‘em cheaper, though, if ya look around. Gotta be smart ‘bout it, ya know. Don’t jest jump at the first shiny thing ya see. That’s how they get ya, them city folk, always tryin’ to pull a fast one.
- Different kinds of Jay Garrick shirts
- You got the ones with jest the lightnin’, plain and simple.
- Then there’s the ones with the fella runnin’, like he’s in a hurry.
- And don’t forget the ones with all the colors, fancy-like.
- Some are for men, some are for women, and some are for the young’uns.
They say these shirts are made by all sorts of folks, “independent artists” they call ‘em. Sounds fancy, but I bet they’re jest folks like you and me, tryin’ to make a livin’. And they sell ‘em all over the world, these shirts. Can ya believe it? My grandson’s shirt, coulda been made by someone clear across the ocean. It’s a small world, ain’t it?
My grandson, he tells me all about this Jay Garrick fella. Says he got his speed from some kinda accident, somethin’ to do with “hard water gas fumes.” Sounds like somethin’ my old tractor would cough up. Anyways, he’s a hero, this fella, savin’ folks and runnin’ real fast. I guess that’s why they put him on a shirt.
So, if you’re lookin’ for a Jay Garrick shirt, there’s plenty to choose from. Jest remember to shop around, don’t get fooled by them fancy prices, and make sure ya get the right size. Nothin’ worse than a shirt that’s too tight or too loose. And if ya see my grandson runnin’ around in his lightnin’ bolt shirt, jest smile and wave. He’s a good kid, even if he does like that fella with the pot on his head.
And don’t forget, these shirts come in all sorts of sizes, from the littlest young’uns to the big ol’ fellas. So, there’s a shirt for everyone, I reckon. Jest gotta find the one that fits ya right. And if you’re lookin’ online, they got all sorts of colors too. Red, blue, yellow, you name it, they got it. It’s like a rainbow exploded on a bunch of shirts.
My grandson also told me that some famous artists make these shirts, names like Alex Ross. Don’t know them fellas from Adam, but seems like they’re a big deal in the shirt-makin’ world. And they make shirts with other fellas too, like Super-Girl and some fella named Krypto. Sounds like a whole lotta superheroes to me. Too many for this old lady to keep track of.
So that’s the story on these Jay Garrick shirts. From what I can tell, they’re popular, they’re varied, and they cost a pretty penny if you ain’t careful. But if it makes my grandson happy, well, then I guess it’s worth it. Even if he does look a little silly with that lightnin’ bolt on his chest and a fella runnin’ with a pot on his head.
