Sikoryak's work is always, always worth checking out. It's a shame he's confined his material to anthologies and one-offs.

I am a sick man. I am an angry man. I am an unattractive man. I am Batman.

I've always Raskolnikov not to be as beafy as that. Nor dressed as Batman. But you I think any classic novel would be improved by everyone being dressed as superheroes. Pride and Prejudice, for instance, would rock if Elizabeth was dressed like Wonder Woman.

If this had been out in 1997, I'd have passed my Masterpieces of European Literature class.
