DC Entertainment Launches DC SUPER HERO GIRLS Initiative With Animated Short

On USA Today, DC Entertainment debuted an animated short titled Welcome to Super Hero, which gives an introduction to the world of DC Super Hero Girls.

DC has major plans to put Super Hero Girls everywhere kids are. It will have dedicated Twitter, Facebook and Instagram accounts, there are plans for TV specials and direct-to-video projects, plus girls will be able to read the characters’ continuing adventures in a Random House middle-grade novel series and DC graphic novels — the first, written by Shea Fontana and scheduled for July 2016, centers on the young heroines working together to escape the clutches of the villainous Lex Luthor so they don’t miss their semester finals.

There will also be a toy line featuring figurines and LEGO sets.  DC is making a concerted effort to diversify their line after the success of positive women leads in Arrow, The Flash, and Gotham.
