review:
'Goodnight Batcave' by Dave Croatto with illustrations by Tom Richmond is an unauthorized 'Goodnight Moon' parody as done by MAD Magazine. As you might imagine, it is hilarious.

Poor Batman. He is tired. So tired, that he is falling asleep in his chair in the Batcave. He should go to bed, but unfortunately, some of his famous enemies have broken into the Batcave, so they will have to be dealt with first. What's a tired superhero to do?

The art style is very cartoonish with Batman sporting a huge upper torso in exaggerated superhero style. I love how they snuck Alfred E. Neuman into the rogues list on Batman's computer. I also love how Batman says goodnight to objects as they are used to subdue the bad guys (Goodnight phone, goodnight chair, etc.).

It may not help children settle down to bed, but it's a great parody, and made me feel tired just with all the exertion poor tired Batman has to go through. I had a fun time reading this and it would make a great gift book for the Batman fan in your life.

I received a review of this ebook from DC Entertainment and NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. Thank you for allowing me to review this ebook.
