Urge James Gunn, Peter Safran and Warner Brothers to create a JL8 animated series


Urge James Gunn, Peter Safran and Warner Brothers to create a JL8 animated series
The Issue
THIS PETITION IS MADE BY FANS OF THE WEBCOMIC JL8 AND IS NOT DIRECTLY AFFILIATED WITH YALE STEWART
JL8 is a long-running family-friendly unpaid labor of love webcomic by Yale Stewart, that reimagines our beloved Justice League characters as eight-year-olds navigating the trials and tribulations of elementary school. It beautifully blends humor, adventure, and the timeless essence of DC's iconic heroes, appealing to fans as young as those in elementary school up to adults who have cherished these characters for decades.
Given its storytelling brilliance and broad appeal, the leap from webcomic to animated series is a logical and thrilling next step. With an impressive array of characters and scenarios already well-developed over a decade, JL8 provides a wealth of source material that would make for a seamless transition to a television format. Moreover, Yale Stewart’s brilliant writing and art are well-suited to shape the direction of an animated series, ensuring it retains the charm and heart that fans have come to love.
From a financial viewpoint, this project aligns perfectly with Warner Brothers’ strategy. Embracing a series that caters to a wide demographic could significantly boost the studio’s appeal and profitability. The existing fan base of JL8 is extensive and passionate, ensuring a ready-made audience for this venture.
This call to action is a chance for us to bring together fans from around the globe to make our voices heard. By creating a JL8 animated series, James Gunn and Warner Brothers have an unparalleled opportunity to create something truly special that honors the past while inviting new generations to fall in love with the Justice League.
Let's unite in rallying behind this unique vision for the DC universe. Please sign this petition to urge James Gunn and Warner Brothers to consider bringing JL8 to screen.
