Bruce Wayne: Not Super
Bruce Wayne: Not Super | Stuart Gibbs
1 post | 1 read
13-year-old Bruce Wayne attends an exclusive prep school for the gifted. But in this case, "gifted" means kids with super-powers. Bruce is suddenly the least special person in his world--and must learn to work with the talents he does have. Its hard enough being in middle school, but its even worse when youre the only kid at your school who doesnt have super-powers. Thats the case for poor Bruce Wayne at the Gotham Preparatory School for the Really, Really, Really Gifted, where the struggles of being un-powered are made worse by the presence of so many exceptionally gifted students. He doesnt stand a chance of winning a race against the future Flash, or a swim meet against the future Aquaman, and he always gets picked last for dodgeball. And when it comes to winning the attention of the most popular girls at schoolDiana Prince and Selina Kyle--he figures he stands no chance at all. Bruce does have a goal though: he wants to make a difference in the world. But how can he do that when he doesnt have any powers? While the Future-Supers are currently content to simply use their gifts to glide through school and court popularity, Bruce struggles to figure out if he has any gifts at all and if so, how to use them. His challenge comes when he discovers fellow student Jack Napier and his hired bully Bane shaking down lesser-powered students for money, including that hapless kid Dick Grayson. Someone must stand up to them and somehow, its going to be Bruce!

This was so much fun. Did you know in middle school Bruce Wayne was not super yet all the other kids around him were? He was let into the school because his parents paid for it. All he to be is a vigilante. Alfred, his butler, is like no thank you. Try as he might Brucei still cannot be super enough to make his vigilante dreams come true. But with some hard work, determination, and lots of laughs, he will have the beginnings

LibrarianRyan of Batman and the character we have grown to love. We get this middle school iteration of Bruce Wayne from Stuart Gibbs. The same Stuart Gibbs, who writes the Fun Jungle, Moon Base, Alpha, and Spy School books. DC picked the perfect author to take a stab at a not super, not dark, not yet dangerous Batman. I need more books in this series right now. 1y
