Review

"Just in time for this summer's DC and Marvel movies, comes a joke book to keep kids laughing and reading. And if your kids are like mine, they'll read them all aloud TO YOU. I apologize in advance. But reading is good--and so is groaning, chortling, and giggling!" --Melissa Taylor, Imagination Soup

"THE OFFICIAL DC SUPER HERO JOKE BOOK is a must-have for DC Comics fans--kids and adults alike!" --Booking Mama

"I passed it off to my middle son, and he did nothing but laugh and share jokes with his brothers for the next hour or more. He took it to school for show-and-tell the next day." --Brian Warshaw, Batman News

"My boy LOVES this book! Fully illustrated with familiar Silver Age renderings of all his favorite Justice League heroes and dastardly villains telling jokes, puns, riddles and gags endearingly appropriate for my 9 year old! He can't get enough of them!" --Alex Yarde, The Good Men Project

"The jokes are kid-friendly but I couldn't stop laughing while reading this book." --Farid-ul-Haq, The Geekiary

 "Bright and colorful, this book would make a great gift to any child or adult--I know I'd certainly appreciate it. Seriously, this book is aimed at the child demographic and serves as a great way to get them reading." --Steve Lam, Bam! Smack! Pow!

"It's that attention to detail (the amount of jokes about Superman's forgotten pet menagerie are particularly impressive) that makes Downtown Bookworks' children's books a cut above the competition. These are jokes crafted with true affection for their subject matter. It's a labor of love that will translate into plenty of laughter for young readers, while giving them a crash course into DC Comics mythology at the same time." --Smells Like Infinite Sadness

"The kiddies are bound to enjoy the goofy superhero jokes in The Official DC Super Hero Joke Book, and parents will at least appreciate all the cool art drawn from what looks like about 75 years worth of DC comic books." --Peter Chianca, Wicked Local

"A great addition to any child's library, one that will get them learning about these characters in a humorous way, The Official DC Superhero Joke Book is a fun and breezy way to enjoy the DCU." --Stefania Rudd, Doom Rocket
