I just found this on Jerry Bails' Who's Who of American Comic Books:
Quote
Print Media (non-comics)
   Writer: Novels: 1978/81/83 [comics tie-ins] Superman '78/81; Miracle Monday '81; Batman '83
To see this, go to ==> Who's Who <== and search for MAGGIN. The above text is about a dozen lines from the top.

I also found this reference on Barnes & Noble:
http://search.barnesandnoble.com/booksearch/isbnInquiry.asp?z=y&EAN=9780671475659&itm=8

Who's Who says this is a novel. B&N says it is for "Young Adult". Does anyone out there have this book? Does it really exist?

Well, I'd certainly never heard of it, but I googled the ISBN, and it certainly seems to have existed. It would appear to be completely out of print, though, and none of the booksearch services I tried could find a seller anywhere.

Something with the same ISBN is listed as a "Trade Paperback".
