Neon Knight Forever provides a fascinating look at the other side of the Dark Knight. Through his close analysis, Zaglewski reveals the importance of Schumacher's much derided Batman films. He demonstrates why it is so important to consider what the variations of cultural icons contribute to the characters and reveals about our shifting social values.

Neon Knight Forever makes a passionate and well researched argument to re-evaluate colorful milestones in the contemporary superhero movie, Batman Forever and Batman & Robin. Through a focus on transmedia franchising, fan communities, and critical reception, the book provides a rounded analysis of the Joel Schumacher's Batman films that are often unfairly dismissed by superhero fans and scholars. Neon Knight Forever makes an important contribution to scholarship on superheroes and comic-book movies.

An eloquent book … it has given me much to think about and I urge anyone with a passing interest in Batman Forever and/or Batman & Robin to buy a copy.
