AOL, DC Comics launch online daily ‘Batman’ comic strip
VIRGINIA: The cape figure is going from strength to strength courtesy the internet. An original online Batman comic strip has been created for America Online by DC Comics. The detective, Gotham City and AOL members will soon have a new nemesis an Eastern mythic figure Sin Tzu.
Batman: Shadow of Sin Tzu will appear online on AOL five days a week. This new Batman ongoing storyline was developed especially for the online environment and for KOL, AOL’s new experience for kids, which will be available to consumers later this year.
Gotham’s most notorious villains have joined hands. Batman must discover who is behind this diabolical conspiracy before an all-out war descends on the city. It could Sin Tzu or Two-face or perhaps the Joker. As the mystery unfolds, kids can go online each weekday and get a new episode in this exciting year-long serial. Through the venture DC Comics is looking to bridge the generational gap between parents who grew up reading Batman stories in comic books and watching him on television and their kids who will now be able to check out Batman’s daily adventures online.
AOL and DC Comics have also joined forces to offer a host of additional special content and features for AOL’s new experiences for its kids and teens audiences. When KOL launches kids can check out special Batman and Superman comics online as well as access other features related to the superheroes. In addition, each weekday, kids and teens can get Spy vs. Spy comics and wacky excerpts from the classic Mad Magazine.
Besides Batman DC Comics also owns Superman, Wonder Woman and the Sandman.
