When my son saw the cover of this novel, he immediately stated that he didn't like the cold. As we began reading, it quickly escalated from a hot summer day into the coldest winter night.

In this short-story, I quickly learn of a new trio that I have never heard from, and this team wanted to freeze the entire world. Luckily for Batman, for he was trapped in a car (frozen), Flash appears followed by Wonder Woman to free him from his icy fortress.

Batman novels by Super DC Heroes are clean and wholesome. I never have to worry about what my child my hear and learn when reading these novels to him, they never disappoint and I am always able to say that justice prevails through every trial that the hero must face.

This was cool. Heh. Mr. Freeze teams up with two other ice-powered villains (I won't spoil the guessing game!) and Bats has to call upon some very talented friends for help.

[Rosa Cline · Rating 3 out of 5]

This Batman story included friends Wonder Woman and The Flash. A level 2 so a child could try and read on their own.
