[edit]

On January 28, 2016, Dan DiDio and Jim Lee announced a new partnership between Hanna-Barbera and DC Comics, both companies owned by Warner Bros. Discovery, in order to remake most of the studio's comedic characters and adapt them into darker and edgier settings.[1]

The first four titles in the line are Future Quest, Scooby Apocalypse, The Flintstones and Wacky Raceland.[2] New titles were released in March 2017.[3]
