Check out our staff celebrating Halloween, one of the easiest times to display our love of comics in the library.

My library decided to do a themed costume day and all be heroes of different types. I decided to go as my own special version of Wonder Woman. Hope you all had a happy Halloween!

Wearing my Green Lantern costume to the library! We should form a special librarian Justice League.

My 1940s Barbara Gordon costume went over very well — and I may just keep the bat symbols on my shoes.
