Seventeen short stories written by some great authors using characters in the Batman World. They all have a different style and different characters. There isn't a story I didn't like! The stories range from the campy Batman to the Dark Knight that everyone loves and all in between. Includes stories about Joker, Penguin, Catwoman, and others. Highly Recommended if you like Batman or comics!!!

This book continues the Empire of the East series and is a prequel of sorts to the Swords series by Fred Saberhagen. It is a pretty good read but I think you will have to have read Empire of the East to understand all that is happening and the Swords series to understand how it all connects together. A great mix of fantasy and sci-fi from the master, Mr. Saberhagen.

This is an Elseworld comic. It basically explores the idea of what might happen if Superman was never picked up by the Kents when his ship crash landed on Earth. Very interesting!!

Meet Luffy, Zolo, and Nami...not your typical pirate crew. Luffy ate the Devils Gum Gum (Rubber) Fruit and can stretch like rubber. Zolo, once a pirate hunter and expert swordsman who uses a three blade style also joins the crew. And last of all Nami, who is an expert navigator. This is a great book.

This book starts out slow with an introduction of the characters and intrigue of what is going on in the hundred. It picks up speed after all the characters are revealed and the threat to them is realized. It does have great characters and interaction between them . Also there are some great twists and turns. Left me wanting more. Can't wait for the next book.
