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.

Özge Samanci talks about her childhood in Turkey and what went into the writing of her graphic memoir, Dare to Disappoint.

Sarah Hunter takes a look at the all-ages webcomic Demon Street, a fantasy-adventure story by Aliza Layne.

Kelly Knox rounds up eight great graphic novels for kids, from Hello Kitty to Smile.
