DC

DC Comics is one of the largest and oldest American comic book companies, owned by Warner Bros. Discovery, whose first comic under the DC banner was published in 1937. Most of its stories are set in the fictional DC Universe and feature culturally iconic heroes such as Superman, Batman, Wonder Woman, and the Flash, along with teams like the Justice League, the Teen Titans, the Suicide Squad, and the Legion of Super-Heroes. As of 2025, DC is the second-largest publisher of comic books in both the comic book shop market, after Marvel, and the bookstore market, after Viz Media. Source
