Links: Supergirl Comic Is on the Way
Good news for fans of the Supergirl TV show: DC will publish a digital-first Adventures of Supergirl comic that will be set in the same universe, although it won’t be based directly on the show.
Not comics, but comics-adjacent: Scholastic is preparing a line of “Backstories” novels, 120-page middle-grade biographies of Superman, Wonder Woman, and Batman, in advance of next year’s movie Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice.
