Young Justice

Debuting from DC Comics in 1998, Young Justice sees Robin, Superboy and Impulse form a team of like-minded teen sidekicks eager to outgrow the shadow of their mentors. Though the series proved popular, the team eventually was folded into the Teen Titans franchise. However, since then the superteam has enjoyed a pop culture resurgence thanks to a popular animated series and the Wonder Comics imprint Young Justice reboot.
