    Reynolds is a Treasure
  

*by D***E on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on October 25, 2016*

A very nice book. Reynolds has a wonderful knowledge of and appreciation for the comic book genre. This combined with his literary knowledge makes this book a very helpful resource for those doing research in the area. I had the pleasure of extending the conversation with Professor Reynolds at the Second International Conference on Superheroes at Oxford this year. The man is as delightful as his prose.

    I had hopes... but... WHAT.
  

*by Z***0 on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on February 27, 2018*

I was intrigued until he began to launch on a bizzare tirade about the link between heroes, sexual violence and rape. The writer left me feeling not so much as enriched in the ways of comic knowledge, as he left me seriously concerned that the writer himself has skewed perceptions of sexuality I general.

    Disappointing
  

*by J***H on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on December 28, 2010*

I had high hopes for this book, but when I reached its analysis of major superheroes such as Superman and Batman, I felt the author was way off. I thought his finding that Superman was just an adolescent fantasy was very simplistic - where was any discussion of the duality of the human and alien, the conflict between the physical, alien might of Superman against the mental, human might of Lex Luthor? And when Batman was seen as 'angry all the time', that his driving force is not anger at the injustice that he suffered and that he sees every day, but rather anger at himself for note being able to stop what happened to his parents - and that his greatest foe is not the Joker, the man who is the opposite of all that Batman represents, but rather Two-Face, because the author thinks he represents the duality of Batman/Bruce Wayne - I lost all faith that the author knew what he was talking about. If you want a serious book about superheroes as modern mythology, look elsewhere.
