Superman in Disguise

My 5 year old son loves Superman and loves this book. He loves to peruse the pages, picking out his favorite characters and sections. This is a fun book for younger kids and not nearly as dark as the DC comic Ultimate Guide.

great for fans

Fans of the animated series will like this book. It's has info data on every character from the series, good artwork and even photo shots from the series. Being a fan of Superman, other fans may like this book.

Superman Guide --great intro for series.

Being a fan of the Superman animated series, I was thrilled to see some a new book come out on this well-written show. Regrettably, after a measly 52 episodes, WB decided not to produce any more episodes, and just last year DC also decided not to produce any more comics written in the Superman--Animated Series style. This text is much more kid friendly than Mr. McCloud's other DC Books on the regular DC DK books (Batman, having a few strong illustrations that might be a bit much for the younger crowd). I was rather surprised at the smaller size of the text, but loved the well-chosen illustrations and text, culled from both the series and short-lived comic book. An excellent guide to the series, which hopefully can get some more kids and viewers into the show which will be replayed on the Cartoon Network. I hope Mr. McCloud can continue to do books on Batman Beyond and in a few years, the Justice League (when that particular series has accumulated more episodes). Still, I wish a few more pages could have included an episode guide to the series, and to the comic book done in that styleHeartily recommend. Sincerely, JThreecarolyn@dia.net
