Superheroes swarm Urbandale library
By NICOLE JOBST • njobst@dmreg.com • October 23, 2008

It's a bird. It's a plane! No, it's a superhero costume contest at the Urbandale Public Library. Superheroes of all walks of life and ages sat in the library Saturday for a special story time.The event transformed into a costume contest, judged by Jennifer Saylor of the Iowa Comic Book Club. Superman, Batman and Robin, Flash, Spiderman, a Power Ranger and a vigilante were among the heroes on hand.The Iowa Comic Book Club tries to hold an event at the library about once a month. When Saylor planned October's event, she had Halloween in the back of her mind.

With the holiday approaching, getting superheroes to the library would be easy and raise awareness for the club. Saylor had a table of free comics and Superman pins for the participants, and watched each superhero to pick a winner. Nichole McDowell of Urbandale decided to dress the same as her son, Wesley, 2, who loves to be Batman. "Wesley likes it. He loves doing the fist action," Nichole McDowell said.
