of our first book with Stan Lee Romeo & Juliet The War, which was an
instant NY Times Best-Seller, we get to officially unveil our new label STAN
LEE’S KIDS UNIVERSE. The brand at its core is a fun, creative and family
friendly imprint that we are hoping will change the game. We are looking
forward to STAN LEE’S KIDS UNIVERSE DAY on February 2.”

working with POW! Entertainment and the legend himself Stan Lee---we can’t wait
to share these new projects with the world in the coming weeks.”
“STAN LEE’S KIDS UNIVERSE was created to provide children
with big imaginations an entirely new universe to explore, with the aim of
telling stories that they haven’t read before yet provide educational value as
well,” said Stan Lee. “It’s a thrill to
be able to bring this new franchise and its colorful characters to life. I am excited to meet a new generation of
brigadiers.”
