If you're reading this, you grew up on DC heroes. While there's other heroes, the likes of Batman, Wonder Woman, and Superman have been ingrained in pop culture since the '60s - beyond the comics into movies, TV shows, clothing, and even bedsheets. But how do they grab the young readers of today?

Great comics.

Here in the final hours of San Diego Comic-Con 2023, DC is leading a panel about its books for young readers - be it young adult, middle-grade, or whater terminology you have for it. Scheduled to be on hand are authors Nicole Maines (Bad Dream: A Dreamer Story), Sina Grace (Superman: The Harvests of Youth), Penelope and Jerry Gaylord (Diana and the Hero's Journey; Clark & Lex), Jeffrey Brown (Batman and Robin and Howard), and Jim Benton (Fann Club: Batman Squad), and a surprise guest.

In addition to that, Popverse's own Ashley V. Robinson - a YA comic creator itself - will be hosting the panel.
