![]() Rating: - It's a decent book but I find one overshadowing criticismI think enough people have written on the story, which is entertaining, and commented on the beautiful artwork in this collection, which is thankfully more realistic or adult looking than the juvenile artwork in the first volume of this series. That said I agree that it's a fine book for your average comic reader but I do have a criticism to note that ruins this book for me personally. I'm a guy who just started reading comics after seeing The Dark Knight (which lead me to read my first ...

Save yourself some money and skip to Superman/Batman Volume 3. Rating: - Nice readI came in late for much of the comics and their first printings so getting this little trade paperback was lovely. I enjoyed the art and the story (though I stopped reading super-girl long ago because quality went down hill). I'd recommend this paperback however. Browse for similar items by category:
