Does This Cape Make Me Look Fat?

This is a funny book. Not gory at all. My husband and I co-wrote it and my friend Lia Miternique did the illustrations. It has all sorts of useful hints for the introspective caped crusader. Practical Costume Concerns, Advice for Sidekicks, What to do if Your Parent is a Super Villain, that sort of thing. A send-up of both comics and self-help books.
