This book was very strange and uses different outcomes and backstories than the more mature versions of super man, but non the less it was a good book.

A cute, fun, quick little read with my kid!
I probably would've rated it lower but it had Mxy in it and that's a character that most kids don't know and he's a lot of fun at times. My boy enjoyed this book and that's what matters...

Part of the new DC Super Heroes series by Stone Arch Books (Capstone). While they look like comics, they are actually lower level chapter books. Not particularly thought-provoking, but definitely fun. I can see kids really liking these - I'm adding them to my collection for sure.

Another in the J/E Super Heroes series. Superman has to defend the Metropolis Muesum from Mr. Mxyzptlk! Much, much better written!
