‘DC Super Hero Girls: Hero of the Year’ Movie on the Way

Where can you find the most powerful and prominent Super Teens in the galaxy? Super Hero High of course!

Produced by Warner Bros. Animation and DC Entertainment, the film will be distributed by Warner Bros. Home Entertainment  on August 9 on Digital HD and August 23, 2016 on DVD.

DC Super Hero Girls - Hero of the Year
DC Super Hero Girls – Hero of the Year

These young Super Heroes discover unique abilities, develop powers, and combat an abundance of overwhelming, exciting and awkward moments to master the fundamentals of being a hero – one day at a time! The group includes:
Wonder Woman was raised on Themyscira, a paradise island overflowing with female leaders. This natural born leader has super strength, the power of flight and a magic lasso that forces anyone to tell the truth.

  • Batgirl is crazy smart – she was accepted to Super Hero High based on her brainpower alone (she wasn’t born with super powers). But this crime-fighting sleuth may be the most influential of all! Her unparalleled intellect, expert martial arts skills, photographic memory and legendary detective skills are a formula for an incredible Super Hero.
  • Supergirl is the most powerful teen on earth, but also incredibly clumsy. She has super strength, super hearing and super speed but will need to be sure she doesn’t trip over her own two feet en route to saving the world.
  • Harley Quinn is the resident class clown who lives for jokes and over-the-top pranks. Nonetheless, this quick-witted gymnast is sneaky and full of surprises.
  • Bumblebee has the ability to shrink, allowing her to sneak around without being spotted. She makes sure her team is never surprised by any villains or enemies up to no good.
  • Poison Ivy, got caught up in a botched lab experiment, and now has the ability to control and summon plants. She’s gradually adapting to her amazing new powers and blossoming into her new life.
  • Katana is an artist with an edge – this fearless martial arts fashionista is up for any crime-fighting test and is never without her sword.

Together, these seven fearless Super Heroes prove that we all have the power to make the world a better place – even while school is in session!

DC Superhero Girls Take WonderCon

This year we partnered up with several other little girl cosplayers to recreate the DC Super Hero Girls for our WonderCon cosplay. The girls all had a tremendous amount of fun, and even ran into Lisa Yee, the author of the first DC Super Hero Girls novel, and a group of adult cosplayers who also cosplayed as DC Super Hero Girls.

Suicide Squad Is The DC Movie We Have Been Waiting For

We’ve been pretty underwhelmed by Warner Bros’ recent attempts to start a DC Cinematic Universe — until today. Farewell grim, joyless and colorless Zack Snyder drudgery. Writer/director David Ayers (Training Day, Fury) has found the fun in the DC Universe. It’s with the bad guys. The Suicide Squad.

The trailer for Suicide Squad dropped today, and it looks like DC might have a team movie that can compete with Marvel’s The Avengers, its just not the superhero team they thought it would be. While they are technically bad guys, the squad looks like they are having fun with their powers in a colorful and exciting world. So far, the same cannot be said for either Superman or Batman.

In the comics, the Suicide Squad is an elite black ops task force comprised entirely of supervillains (not “reformed supervillains” — just “supervillains”), who are given their freedom in exchange for going on the most dangerous and insane missions the government can dream up.

Led by the tough-as-nails Amanda Waller, members of the Suicide Squad have a bomb placed in their skulls that can be remotely detonated if they disobey orders or compromise the mission.

Suicide Squad hits theaters on August 8, 2016.

We can’t wait.
