Milk Wars
"Milk Wars" is a 2018 American comic book crossover published by DC Comics. It features the publisher's core characters—such as Batman, Superman, and Wonder Woman—crossing over with the characters of their imprint Young Animal. Production According to Young Animal curator Gerard Way, the idea for a crossover between the main DC Comics line and Young Animal was proposed to him by DC. Way approved of the idea, saying he saw it as "a fun challenge, a way to reach mainstream readers, and hopefully a way to infect them with oung Animal'sweirdness". Way, who considers Young Animal "a big experiment", was interested in reinventing DC's icons in ways that were fun. The inspiration for the series was how milk's wholesomeness could sometimes be a bad thing. The creative teams for each issue were balanced between some individuals known for their work in Young Animal, and others known for their work in DC's main line.

American Comic Book
An American comic book is a thin periodical originating in the United States, on average 32 pages, containing comics. While the form originated in 1933, American comic books first gained popularity after the 1938 publication of ''Action Comics'', which included the debut of the superhero Superman. This was followed by a superhero boom that lasted until the end of World War II. After the war, while superheroes were marginalized, the comic book industry rapidly expanded and genres such as horror, crime, science fiction and romance became popular.

DC's Young Animal is a "pop-up" Imprint (trade name), imprint of DC Comics started in 2016. It was developed in collaboration with Gerard Way, an American musician and comic book writer, author of ''The Umbrella Academy''.

The line has been overseen by Vertigo Comics, Vertigo group editor Jamie S. Rich and executive editor Mark Doyle.

Other themes he has cited are alienation, fame, change ("self-actualization and becoming something else"), as well as bullying, teenagers and drug use (in ''Shade, the Changing Girl''), and eventually "a lot of personal stuff for me in ''Doom Patrol'' that deals with mature themes".
