    Only for their "serious" lines, apparently. I glanced at the Brave and Bold adaptation in a sampler for their kids lines for Free Comic Book day.

    Now, I must say, the sampler they show to try to GET people to actually want to read the series looks absolutely repulsive. It's disgusting. I'll get to a scanner in a few minutes to show ya'll.

    Seriously, I thought DC had standards with everything they do. But they must be pretty low when it's a tie in with a tv show with their number one character is the main character.

    If that's the standard for their kids stuff, then I should be able to get a job NOW! I draw better than that garbage!

    Anyway, The rest of the comics in the sampler weren't bad.

    That's pretty much what the cartoon looks like...

    and it's meant for kids. It's not like the kids are gonna sit there and say something like:

    "This art is craptastic! I refuse to even attempt to read this garbage because of this horrible art!"

    The cartoon looks much better than these stiffly posed, squished, flat abominations.

    Just because it's for kids doesn't mean the art shouldn't be good. [link]

    There probably aren't that many people that buy these, but yeah, the art in the kids JLU comics were fantastic.

    This.

    It's a comic aimed specifically at kids. It's a goofy kind of style, and to be honest, I think it's a pretty decent fit for a similarly goofy series and comic.

    I don't take it seriously. I'm just glad there's a version of Batman that isn't brooding, getting laid, and/or kicking the snot out of everyone that they can get to kids.

    DC have been slipping for awhile now, there writing has been really poor, apart from battle for the cowl. So this really holds no surprise to me.

    Uhm......did Batman just do PERFECT splits in the air?  He looks like he's going to say: "Give me a B!!!"
