What would happen if Superman had to get a warrant for his x-ray vision? Can you imagine Batman in small claims court when his batarangs damage city buildings?
On Friday's Up to Date, we’ll talk with James Daily and Ryan Davidson, the authors of The Law of Superheroes, a book about how the comics would be different if superheroes were subject to real-life laws.
The book is based on Daily and Davidson's blog, Law and the Multiverse.
