DC Entertainment has launched a new “Digital First” comic book series entitled DC Super Hero Girls: Past Times at Super Hero High. The publisher made the announcement at a New York Comic Con panel.
This series stars several iconic characters including Wonder Woman, Batgirl, Supergirl, Katana, Harley, Ivy, and Bumblebee. Shea Fontana signed on as the writer for this series. The first chapter has already been made available online and new installments are set to come out every other Wednesday. Once the series has been digitally released in its entirety, all the chapters will be compiled into a graphic novel slated for release in 2017.
Fontana gave this statement in the press release: “I’m thrilled to work on this Digital First series because it focuses on two of my favorite DC Super Hero Girls characters. They’re an odd couple, but they make a fun dynamic duo as they team up to try and save Super Hero High. Through the story, we’ll explore what makes the Super Heroes tick and test the boundaries of their friendship. I’m also really excited to explore a new side of Bumblebee that hasn’t been seen before and can’t wait for fans to see so much of her heroic heart.”
