This week we look at the YouTube Red series Cobra Kai. This follows on from the iconic 1984 Karate Kid movie and continues to follow the lives of the original characters and high school rivals Danny LaRusso and Johnny Lawrence.

Karate Kid is a DC character who was created by Jim Shooter and first appeared in Adventure Comics #346 in 1966. Although the 1984 movie had very little to do with this character, Columbia Pictures did first get permission from DC and there is a thank you in the end credits.
