As we reported this summer, The Discovery Channel is entering the graphic novel market with a line of books aimed at readers ages 9 and older. USA Today provides additional details on the line.

The series, produced by Zenescope Comics' all-ages imprint Silver Dragon Books, will debut on Dec. 1 with Top 10 Deadliest Sharks, which features the type of information typically showcased in the cable network's popular Shark Week programming. Subsequent releases will include a dinosaurs-themed title, and Animal Planet-branded books.
