Review Quotes
Batman's Villains and Villainesses is a fascinating collection of essays that explores the Caped Crusader's rogues gallery from a number of scholarly perspectives, challenging you to think about these familiar characters in new ways--definitely not a book for the cowardly or superstitious.
For serious readers of Batman comics and graphic novels, this book offers something for everyone. Many of the villains in Batman's world are described and dissected, including corrupt politicians and police.
