DC GO! Adds Six New Original Titles, Including A Jon Kent Series

In October 2024, DC Comics launched DC GO! as part of their DC Universe Infinite service with the intention of making comics more easily read on mobile devices. A few days ago DC Comics announced they will be creating six all new original stories specifically for DC GO! The new webcomics put several iconic characters in unusual and fascinating stories that don’t conform to the typical superhero fare. Set to begin in July, one particular title stands out for us.

From DC’s official site: “Jon Kent: This Internship Is My Kryptonite” by writer Sam Camp (Little Hollow Café) and artists Daimon Hampton and Seraji, Jon Kent is a super-powered hero in his own right, but how do those powers help him move beyond the mundane coffee orders, endless research, and “educational experience” the Daily Planet reporting staff deems necessary for those essential college credits? Especially when your mom is the editor-in-chief—hello, nepotism concerns!

What’s more, his best friend thinks the internship is a waste of his time and talents, his boyfriend tries to be supportive but is wary of Jon’s new boss’s Superman obsession, and naturally his parents think this is a great opportunity, but life as a superhero daylighting as a reporter is a little different today than it was back then…

Described as a slice-of-life/superhero comedy, this seems like Jon’s version of “My Adventures With Superman” which could be a lot of fun. Other titles include: “Warriors and a Wee Wonder” featuring an adolescent Wonder Woman, “Aquaman: Yo-Ho-Hold Onto Your Hook!” a pirate tale about Jackson Hyde aboard the ship “Dee Sea”, “The Magical Mysteries of SHAZAM!” showcasing some early years of Billy Batson, “My Little Warlord” focusing on the survival aspect of Travis Morgan’s journey to becoming Warlord of Skartaris, and “Taste of Justice” highlighting the cuisine and food cultures of the DCU.
