WBCP can dialogue with an enlarged target, from the adult to the child from the male to the female audience. The DC Comics property is precisely the example of this, from the Batman, Superman and Wonder Woman franchises, to the creation of DC Super Hero Girls and DC Super Friends for younger fans“.
