4-6Batman Strikes! series.
Illustrated by
Christopher Jones
&
Terry Beatty.
Batman is on call to protect Gotham City from its usual cast of villains, always without fail. In these stories, Batman sets out to find the thief responsible for diamond burglaries and takes on Mr. Freeze. Slickly illustrated like traditional comic books, the thin plots and simple narratives will appeal to reluctant readers. "Visual questions and prompts" are appended. Glos. Review covers these Batman Strikes titles: Catwoman Gets Busted by the Batman and Frozen Solid by Mr. Freeze!.
