"The Zodiac Killer supposedly is responsible for more than two dozen murders in California, the original Zodiac Killer remains 'at large,'” the library wrote. "With multiple suspects, multiple detectives and multiple crime scenes up and down the west coast, “Z” is possibly the closest thing the world has ever come to a true “supervillain” straight out of a comic book. His ability to evade police is remarkable, and his intellect put him on-par with the FBI and various other police agencies all over the world. In this meeting, we will analyze the case that continues to puzzle the police."
