Have you seen all the fine super hero drawings by kids on DC Comics Fan Family? These little artists are pretty handy with the felt-tips. Are your kids' favorites here?

Click through the gallery, and maybe it'll inspire your child's creativity. We encourage you to share their art with other DC Comics Fan Family readers.

We're looking for works in pen and ink, pencil, paint, crayon, and any 2-D media. How about images created on a tablet or phone? And we'd love to see photos of kids' sculptures in clay, pipe-cleaners, or any other 3-D materials.

You may have seen our "Fan Page" features in print in books like Tiny Titans and Superman Family Adventures -- we've been sharing our youngest fans’ art for years. Now that we've launched DC Comics Fan Family, we're psyched to share their DC character artwork online too.


Here are a few things to know before you send in these priceless masterpieces:

• We ask that you include your child’s first name, age, city, state, or country.

• We accept high-quality scans, JPEGs, GIFs, and photographs.

• We’ll showcase as many submissions as we can each week.

• We will not notify you directly if your child's art is featured (sorry!), so we encourage you to check back weekly and see. Bring the kids ... they might get inspired!

• Pictures of your child should not be included in any photographs that you submit.

• Finally, from our legal team:

All letters, photos, art and other materials submitted to us may be edited, translated (if applicable), and published by DC Comics and our licensees online and in any DC Comics publication in any media, along with the submitter’s first name, hometown, state or country. Also note that if your submission includes any original concepts, designs, or elements, and, if by some chance DC Comics or any of our licensees use the same or similar ones in the future, you will not be compensated or credited. Thanks.

Or by mail:


Thanks for sharing your kid’s art!

Diamond Comics Distributors announced the winners of their 2012 Diamond Gem Awards, and we are pleased to report that for the fourth year in a row, DC Entertainment has been named Diamond Gem Publisher of the Year!

Designed to recognize “quality, creativity, and overall sales impact” of the publishers and their individual products, the Gem Awards are nominated by Diamond professionals, and voted on by comic book retailers around the world.

In addition to the big win, DC Entertainment was also named Backlist Publisher of the year, is the recipient of the Best Original Graphic Novel award for BATMAN: EARTH ONE and DC Collectibles was awarded Toy Manufacturer of the Year with special accolades for: 

The Justice League New 52 Action Figures which were named the 2012 Toy Line of the Year.

The DC Comics Cover Girls Harley Quinn was named the 2012 Collectible Statue of the Year.

And the We Can Be Heroes Justice League 7 pack Box Set was named the 2012 Toy Product of the Year.

For a full list of this year’s winners, head over to Diamond Comics. Congratulations to all!

Superman has defeated villains like Lex Luthor and Brainiac, survived his home planet’s destruction and kept ours safe from harm for over eighty years. Batman has defeated armies of undead assassins, kept some of the most destructive criminals in check and fought otherworldly threats alongside the Justice League—and he does all this without super powers.

And yet, neither of them could have achieved their most recent accomplishments on their own. They needed each and every one of you.

This week, Batman passed 8 million likes on his official Facebook page. Superman passed 4 million. And DC Comics hit the 1 million mark.

We wanted to celebrate these great accomplishments by celebrating the people who made them possible—the fans. Today, the cover photo on all three Facebook pages has been updated with new art commemorating the milestone and thanking the fans for making it possible.

Batman

Superman

DC Comics

But that’s just the start. Throughout this week and beyond, keep an eye out for this logo:

We’ll be using it to flag special “FANtastic Moments” on all three Facebook pages and right here on DCComics.com. Some of these will be posts, photo galleries, articles and other great content driven by fans. Some will be giveaways and cool stuff that we’ve put together for our fans as a thank you for helping us hit these milestones.

In fact, you can find your very first FANtastic Moment right here! In honor of Batman reaching 8 million, we’re offering a free digital download of Scott Snyder and Greg Capullo’s BATMAN #1 for the next 24 hours.
