The League of Regrettable Superheroes: Half-Baked Heroes from Comic Book History by Jon Morris
3.0
I read this book slowly, little chunks here and there. I think the format of the book almost demands it. Nibble a little bit at a time of this delicious skewering of some of the odder superheroes to grace the genre and you'll get plenty out of it. I'm somewhat familiar with the genre and a large number of the characters covered in the book. But even I was surprised at what the fertile minds of yesteryear came up with. The early days were pretty wild and wacky!
My only complaint? There's nothing regrettable about Squirrel Girl! Nothing! Go and read every Squirrel Girl comic you can find. Now. (but perhaps this book came out before her career really took off and if so then Mr. Morris is forgiven.
