Dynamite Entertainment will bring WildWorks, Inc’s popular children’s online social game Animal Jam to comics in 2017.
Animal Jam is a desktop and mobile device game aimed at children who love animals and the outdoors. Players can customize animal characters, adopt pets, build dens, talk with friends, and team up for adventures. The game has over 55 million registered users worldwide, mainly girls ages 7 – 11. The Animaljam.com website receives 6.5 million unique visitors monthly and new accounts are created every 1.25 seconds. It is currently the #1 ranked online social game for kids in the world.
"We are always looking for ways to expand our line of children's titles," said Nick Barrucci, Dynamite CEO and publisher. "We have had tremendous success with our Grumpy Cat program, and most recently, Boo: The World's Cutest Dog. We knew Animal Jam would be perfect to follow-up Dynamite's previous success with bringing an online sensation to the printed page."
