DC Super Hero Girls

Trailer is out for the upcoming Super Hero Girls series that'll be out next year. The series stars teen versions of varioius DC characters (Harley Quinn, Batgirl, Hawkgirl, Supergirl, ect) who attend Super Hero High. A school for uh heroes in training (don't ask why Poison Ivy, Cheetah, and Harley are students..Heck there's even Yellow lanterns there..) with Amanda Waller as the Principal and Gorilla Grodd as one of the professors (seriously).

More will be revealed at NYCC as to the channel and such for this.

I would rather we had gotten a series based on the Super Best Friends Forever shorts instead.

Looks pretty **** (coming from a guy that likes Ever After High), there are many "High school superheros" and this looks really bad.

........ehhh Why not...I'll give it a chance.

I like Ever After High....I like Monster High....why not a Superhero High.

Not loving the design though...(Ever After High has some wicked designs)

Looks ok but I still would have preferred a Batgirl series like the fake promo one shown at the end of Brave and the Bold. I wish they were serious about that.

Good god. I wasn't expecting much before I watched the trailer...but after it...holy crap.

Its like those Bratz dolls or Monster High shows they make for 6 year old girls. It looks absolutely awful.

That was weird. The designs are cute and the animation was done a lot better then I'd imagined. But the concept is a bit "eh", Harley Quinn is the "class clown" seems a bit... weird.

Still, love the designs choices, practical and fashionable. Looks like a fun thing that'll give us LEGO sets and some very cool looking 6 inch figures. And superhero dolls, My cousin would have killed for those when we where young.

I think it's great DC is making brands focused on girls. And what do you know... Harley's costume looks 1000 times better then the parody porn crap she's been draped in since New 52, Injustice and the Arkham Games.

Meanwhile, at Warner Bros...

"What'a we got in the maybe pile?"

Empties waste paper basked onto desk

"Gotham High!"

"What time is it?"

"3:00pm sir"

"Go with it, I gotta pick up my clubs before the pro shop closes"

Waller isn't voiced by C.C.H. Pounder? Not for me.

Thinking the same exact thing. Why are people so upset? I see what they're going for and honestly, I think it's a pretty cool idea and a great way to get young girls into superheroes.

There's a small chance you're right. Small, mind you... very small.

Well of course it looks terrible, it's about DC characters.

Harley is a bit too much... Annoying. But besides that I really like what I'm seeing. Song's so fun, though.

I....don't like it. Ever After High executed this whole high school setting so much better.....this just feels too forced.

but...maybe it'll get better! ^_^ I also have to let go of what I expect from these characters to enjoy it more.

So female superheroes in a High school setting like Bratz dolls or Monster High. *shudders*

And they all talk about being girly, dressing up, what boys to date, how they look, and what lipstick they should wear. Yeah, DC, send women's right back about 30 years.
