FAMILY DYNAMIC @ COMIC BOOK RESOURCES

From the interview by Jeffrey Renaud @ CBR:

This June, DC Comics launches “Family Dynamic,” a six-issue, monthly miniseries with art by Tim Levins (“Batman: Gotham Adventures”) and words by J. Torres, the fan favorite writer of “Teen Titans Go!” and “Wonder Girl,” who knows a thing or two about families. The Toronto-based, Manila, Philippines-born Torres has a younger sister and brother and is also very close to his numerous cousins. The writer told CBR News this alone gives him loads of personal experience to call upon for source material.

“Everyone has kids, so yeah, we have a big family,” said Torres. “It’s also a quite multi-cultural family and we get some of that in ‘Family Dynamic’ too.”

But unlike the Torres bunch, the titular family explored in “Family Dynamic,” the Spencers, has superpowers – fuelled by power rings – and secret identities. “Keeping those secret identities intact is one of the many dilemmas the family faces in the story,” said Torres. “They also butt heads over secrets they’ve kept from each other, and that adds to the drama. When our story opens, the new Family Dynamic has only been in business for about a year, so they’re still learning.”
