Superman IV by Nancy E. Krulik
Superman IV by Nancy E. Krulik
My rating: 2 of 5 stars
Oh man! This is so corny! Remind me never to re-watch Superman IV. This is a picture book retelling of the movie in simplistic writing. All the sentences are subject/verb with only an occasional one starting with an adverb to break the monotony. The story is really silly too with Superman having to fight Lex Luthor's creation, Nuclear Man. Superman actually pushes the moon in front of the sun to block the light at one point! The book is illustrated with stills from the movie and it was fun to remember the days of Christopher Reeve as Superman. One bit of interesting information: Lex Luther's silly nephew Lenny was played by a very young Jon Cryer!
