Princesses of the DC Universe Sets Far-Off 2027 Release with All-New Teen Team
Get ready for a cosmic road trip like no other, but don't hold your breath – DC Comics' new middle-grade graphic novel, Princesses of the DC Universe, isn't hitting shelves until March 2027. This all-new teen superteam sees Wonder Girl Yara Flor, Steel Natasha Irons, and Miss Martian reluctantly recruited for an interstellar journey.
Their mission? Escort the imperious Princess Maxima home for her coming-of-age ceremony. Maxima, desperate for friends, legally conscripts the trio for a galactic adventure that quickly spirals out of control when their ship is stolen. Writers Tilly and Susan Bridges, known for animated Monster High and Star Trek projects, team up with artist Alba Glez (Moon Girl and Devil Dinosaur, Amazing Spider-Man) for this 160-page romp. It’s a significant move, offering a fresh, accessible entry point into the DC Universe, blending superhero action with royal antics for a younger audience.

Catzye Take
A 2027 release feels lightyears away, but the premise of a "superheroes meet princesses" middle-grade graphic novel is genuinely intriguing. This signals DC's continued investment in younger readers, a smart move for long-term fan engagement. We'll be watching how this creative team, with their animation and sci-fi chops, brings this unique blend to life.
