American Update: With Super Friends Like These…
*DC: As part of our catalogue expansion, we welcome DC’s Super-Friends, the 1976-launched series which spun off from a successful TV cartoon show. Written by E. Nelson Bridwell and illustrated mostly by Ramona Fradon, the criminally-underestimated creators turned in a series which was not only a vast improvement on its televisual parent (have you seen any of the TV ‘toons? They’re terrible!), but provided the best Justice League stories being published at the time. Substantially expanding the cast, and introducing a multinational feel to the plots (as well as creating characters such as Green Fury, Icemaiden and Godiva, who would later step into the DCU proper) Super-Friends’ adventure sagas remain cracking reading to this day!
