Lego DC Universe Super Heroes: Save the Day!

I feel that Lego has done a fantastic job in their handling of franchised properties. Not only are their Lego video games brilliantly crafted, but the numerous TV series and books based on properties such as Lego Star Wars are some of my personal favorites.

Here, Lego has crafted a series of short stories done in sequential art comic fashion to relate to their new Lego DC Universe Super Heroes line. Lego started out with Batman and for this book, it’s primarily the Batman family who stars in this book. Aquaman and Superman make some important appearances in this book but it’s really Batman, Robin and a host of villains who steal the show, literally.
The book is really funny and those it’s a bit on the childish side, I would love to read more of these titles in the very near future.
What’s the most amazing about this book is how much Commissioner Gordon, Bane, and Batman look like their live-action counterparts from The Dark Knight Rises.
Great fun for all ages, though those under the age of 13 will enjoy this title the most.
Rating: 8 out of 10 stars.
