Batman, Spiderman Just Having Fun in Waukesha; Woman Insists She's Not Dead

Superheroes hang out in Waukesha

Sometimes Batman and Spiderman just want to have a little fun.

A woman reported at 1:43 p.m. Wednesday that she saw two people dressed as Batman and Robin walking eastbound on Moreland after walking into a business in the 1400 block of White Rock Avenue. The woman thought it was strange because of the costumes.

When police arrived to fight crime, they identified the superheroes as Batman and Spiderman, who told officers they were just having fun.

But I am not dead!
