One of the most beloved names in all-ages superhero comics -- DC's Super Powers -- is being revived as a six-issue miniseries from the creative team behind hits like Itty Bitty Hellboy, Aw Yeah Comics and Tiny Titans.

Art Baltazar and Franco will draw the Justice League -- y'know, for kids! -- in Super Powers starting in November, ComicVine reports.

The story apparently revolves around Superman and Wonder Woman (and presumably other members of the DC pantheon, although they aren't pictured on the cover or specifically mentioned) searching for Batman, who has gone missing.

He can't be all that hard to find, though, right? I mean, he's on the cover.

Anyway, this creative team have been consistently producing excellent all-ages work, including a lot of work for DC. Tiny Titans earned an Eisner Award, and shortly thereafter they went on to produce Superman Family Adventures, which was for a time the most "authentic"-feeling Superman title as the New 52 era had trouble finding its feet.

The Super Powers Collection was a line of action figures based on DC superheroes and supervillains that was created by Kenner Products in the 1980s. There were three waves of the toys -- the first two packaged with a mini-comic featuring the character whose toy you were buying -- and then a miniseries was produced by DC Comics with art by comics industry legend Jack Kirby. In recent years, the Super Powers Collection designs have been reissued in the collector's market as high end action figures.

Superman helps out by cleaning up in Gotham City, where he discovers a clue that sends Wonder Woman into space to find the Caped Crusader.

From the award-winning creative team that brought you TINY TITANS and SUPERMAN FAMILY ADVENTURES!
