Abstract
Roberto Martínez, 31, crossed the border to the US walking through the desert, like the thousands of Mexican migrants who do this dangerous journey every year. He now lives in New Jersey and is a single father, earning his living as waiter at an Italian restaurant and as zumba instructor. But the first Thursday of every month he puts on a mask, straps on a pair of flashy boots and ties his cape to fight good as opposed to fighting evil in the Bronx
