Seen it myself many times. Not “Repo Man”, I’ve never seen that, just the exploding people part.

Looks like I've given you enough homework right now; I count two movies and a book in three days... I have to stop doing that

Ha! It’s ok, I am a non-obligate homework doer and have not written any of it down😜

Thanks! This was a great Prompt. I loved the idea of connecting The Men in Black to The Man in Black. It really does sound like a tribute band. Haha. Glad you enjoyed it, too... 😎

Forget aliens.

Burger, soundtrack, tie-in toys:

These are your mission.

Suits crisp, sharp as blades—

Armani or thrift store finds?

Secrets wear both well.

Dark glasses in night,

Designer or dollar store?

Truth hides in the shades.

Men in Black, they glide,

Fashion’s enigma remains—

Mystery in style.
