Batman & the Library
With all the hype on the new Batman Dark Knight movie release, I took a look at what type of Batman and superhero items the library has to offer- needless to say, there are plenty to choose from!
The WorldCat detailed record page lets you know when other WorldCat users have an item on one of their public lists - if you follow the link here, you can get to other interesting comics and library items these users have saved.
Now, I haven’t seen the new movie (…yet) – but from the creepy images I have seen on TV, in all the articles and blogs posts such as this one – maybe some of the library’s more 'kid friendly' options, like this, would be a better bet for the little ones.

Dark Knight is a very good film, and your post got me thinking about my favorite superhero book:

The Death and Life of Superman: The Novel, is a bit long but a great read. If you're one of those tweeners that likes superhero stories but not comic books, I highly recommend it.

Thanks for the recommendation Justin – sounds like an interesting one to check out and a great addition for some of these lists. (btw, I corrected my earlier typo on ‘Knight’ )
