February 13, 2014: JL8 Comic Strip Creator Writing a Superman Series of Kids Books
io9.com reports that Yale Stewart, the creator of "JL8", a fan-made webcomic which imagines the members of the Justice League as eight-year-olds, will soon have a series of Superman children's books published titled "The Amazing Adventures of Superman".
- We reached out to Capstone Publishing, who sent us info on four titles from "The Amazing Adventures of Superman": "Alien Superman!" featuring Wonder Woman and Lex Luthor; "Battle of the Superheroes!" featuring Batman, the Flash, and Clayface; "Creatures from Planet X!" featuring Green Lantern; and "Escape from Future World!" featuring Brainiac and Cyborg. Rather than comics, the books are illustrated early chapter books for young readers, and feature adult versions of the characters. A representative from Capstone says they will be carrying the titles this coming fall.
