DC Shonen

DC Shonen is a DC Comics imprint which reinvents their characters and places them in a world inspired by anime and manga, much like the Marvel Mangaverse. DC Shonen takes place in a world where Japan and America slowly but surely merged, meaning that some customs, laws, etc from Japan bleed into America and vice versa.
