WONDERCON 2017 [Panel Reviews]: Young Animals.

DC'S YOUNG ANIMAL (Friday) - It's only fitting that I encapsulate this wonderful 2017 edition of WonderCon with a pair of panels from DC Comics, considering it was just one year ago when "Rebirth" was announced (and I'll have that Year One follow-up tomorrow).
