DC Comics is gearing up to unleash a thrilling new adventure that flips the script on its iconic superhero team. Announced earlier this week, Cheetah and Cheshire Rob the Justice League, a six-issue miniseries set to launch on August 6, 2025, is already generating buzz among comic book fans for its bold premise and stellar creative team. Written by Eisner Award winner Greg Rucka and illustrated by Nicola Scott, with colors by Annette Kwok and lettering by Troy Peteri, this “All In” series promises a slick, stylish heist story that pits two of DC’s most cunning villains against the Justice League’s impenetrable defenses.

The story follows Cheetah, Wonder Woman’s ferocious arch-nemesis, and Cheshire, the deadly assassin from the Titans’ rogues’ gallery, as they orchestrate a high-stakes robbery of the DC Universe’s most secure facility—rumored to be the Justice League Watchtower itself. According to Rucka, this isn’t a simple smash-and-grab. “This is a crew of villains, nominal bad guys, with no access to the Watchtower. We’re not making this easy on them,” he teased in a press release. Cheetah, driven by a do-or-die motive, and Cheshire, with her lethal precision, must assemble a top-tier team of rogues to outsmart heroes like Superman, Batman, and Wonder Woman while resisting the urge to betray each other. Their target? One of the most dangerous devices in the DC Universe, though details remain under wraps.

Nicola Scott’s artwork, paired with Kwok’s vibrant colors, is set to bring this cat-and-mouse game to life. The main cover, designed by Scott and Kwok, features Cheetah and Cheshire in a sleek, confident pose, while variant covers by Gerald Parel and Lesley “Leirix” Li offer fresh takes on the villainous duo. Early preview pages, shared by DC Comics, showcase the meticulous planning of the heist, with Scott’s dynamic panels capturing the tension and charisma of the antiheroes.

Fans are already drawing comparisons to heist classics like Ocean’s Eleven, but with a distinctly DC twist. “Cheetah and Cheshire are such underrated villains,” said longtime DC reader Maya Torres at a recent comic convention. “Seeing them take on the Justice League in a battle of wits, not just fists, is going to be epic.” The series also marks a reunion for Rucka and Scott, whose previous collaboration on Wonder Woman: Year One earned critical acclaim for its fresh take on Diana’s origin. Their chemistry is expected to shine in this villain-centric tale, blending humor, suspense, and unexpected twists.

Elsewhere in entertainment, K-pop sensation MEOVV is keeping fans on edge with their upcoming reality show CATCH MEOVV, which premieres its second season on May 16, 2025. The group, fresh off their chart-topping EP My Eyes Open VVide, teased new challenges and behind-the-scenes drama in a recent trailer. With member Gawon recently named a Prada ambassador, MEOVV’s star power continues to rise, making their show a must-watch for K-pop enthusiasts.

Cheetah and Cheshire Rob the Justice League #1 hits comic shops and digital platforms on August 6, 2025. For fans craving a break from heroics, this villainous caper is shaping up to be the summer’s hottest read. Stay tuned to CloutNews.com for exclusive previews and creator interviews as the release date approaches.
