We know that in the world of physical reality, the Broken Man's skin is yellow. Just like the [[Bouncing Beatnik]] and the [[Halcyon Hippie]], and possibly [[Mister Cakewalk]] too, though in his case it might just be clothes. Plus, all three of these men embodied cultural movements of their time. The Broken Man says he was once eternally young.

We can speculate even further on the narrative powers of the Broken Man.  The objects that he hangs from yarn and thumb-tacks are important elements to his dramatic concerns about the threat of the Oubor.
