The Return of Ingersoll ManSaving the world from the forces of evil? Easy! Saving the world from the forces of evil while not breaking the law? Better call Ingersoll...Over twenty-five years ago, practicing attorney and public defender Bob Ingersoll began writing a column for Comics Buyer's Guide about how comic-book authors all too often get the law wrong in their stories.In addition to exposing bad law and explaining how the likes of the Joker, Doctor Strange, and the Justice League of America might do better next time, he offered his services as a legal consultant for comic-book writers. Notables such as Tony Isabella, Marv Wolfman, Peter David, Kurt Busiek, and Mark Waid took him up on it.Ingersoll's earliest columns are collected in this book, the second in a series. With twenty more cases on the docket, from Batman's flawed guardianship of Robin and a tortious Thing, to ruminations on murder and masks, Ingersoll restores to comic books the oft-neglected ideals of truth, justice, and the American legal system.FOREWORD BY PETER DAVID
