Young Justice is a fictional superhero team featured in comic book titles published by DC Comics. The group was formed as a latter-day version of the Teen Titans, with a membership that includes the teenage apprentices of iconic superheroes such as Superman, Batman, and Wonder Woman. The team was featured in their own Young Justice comic book series, which ran for fifty-five issues from 1998 to 2003. Like most ongoing titles at this time, the series crossed over into other inter-title events such as "Day of Judgment", "Our Worlds at War", "Joker's Last Laugh" and "Sins of Youth". Although the roster went through some moderate changes over the span of their tenure, the core group of Young Justice remained the same throughout the entirety of their career. The comic book version of the group first appeared in the Young Justice: The Secret one-shot special in 1998, before launching off into their own series. In 2010, Warner Bros. Animation produced a Young Justice television series, which aired on Cartoon Network for two seasons from 2010 to 2013.
