Laid out like an actual government publication, The Government Manual for New Superheroes, gives wanna be superheroes advice on every aspect of the business: costumes, secret lairs, evil nemeses, sidekicks, transportation, even what to call yourself. There is even a registration form at the back to speed your entry into the superhero life.<\/p>\n

Authors Matthew Brozik and Jacob Weinstein have produced a very funny, and highly sarcastic, guide to being a superhero. They routinely reference heroes like Batman and Spiderman, but not so explicitly as to attract the attention of the corporate suits. There is also plenty of original material (like the Fencesitter, who had to eventually choose a side, although too often it was tragically too late) to keep the reader laughing. You will find yourself snorting repeatedly as you read this book. <\/p>\n

This is a light, entertaining read that is perfect for the bus or the bathroom. A must for the comic book fan in your life.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
