Published on: 4th March 2022

To mark International Women’s Day, Warner Bros. Consumer Products and DC have announced new offerings and experiences dedicated to the women of DC. Featuring Wonder Woman at the helm, DC’s roster of powerful women also includes Batgirl, Catwoman, and more. 

Australian activewear label Active Truth has released a Wonder Woman inspired activewear collection. The 18-piece, size-inclusive collection gives women everywhere the opportunity to put on a 2022s version of a superhero cape and activewear and come together to “Break the Bias” on IWD and beyond. The WONDER WOMAN x Active Truth Collection launched globally on Tuesday 1 March, 2022.

Unique Vintage has produced an empowering collection of vintage-inspired pieces celebrating the Women of DC. Released in tandem with International Women’s Day, the line features strong colours and prints in timeless silhouettes. Product offerings include graphic tees, printed dresses, and Super Hero swimwear, available in sizes XS-5X. The collection launches on March 8.

Warner Bros. World Abu Dhabi is introducing a new DC Super Hero ‘Batgirl’ who will be making her first appearance at the theme park on International Women’s Day. Joining Batman’s crusade on March 8, Batgirl will be fighting crime with The Dark Knight in Gotham City, just in time for the highly anticipated ladies-only event, ‘Women of Warner’.

Finally, DC is debuting the first Wonder Woman crossover of its kind in decades, by the writers behind Wonder Woman, Nubia & the Amazons, and Wonder Girl and some of the best and brightest artists in the industry.

The long-awaited Wonder Woman event Trial of the Amazons kicks off with Trial of the Amazons Issue #1 from writers Becky Cloonan, Michael Conrad, Vita Ayala, Stephanie Williams, and Joëlle Jones writing and drawing, with artists Elena Casagrande, Laura Braga, and Skylar Partridge, with Nubia and the Amazons #6 to follow.

Participating comic shops will be celebrating the event with three promotional temporary tattoos, each representing a different Amazonian tribe. The first temporary tattoo, representing the Themyscirans, will arrive alongside Trial of the Amazons #1, the opening chapter of the explosive story. The second, representing the Bana-Mighdall, will arrive alongside Nubia & the Amazons #6, the second installment of the seven-part crossover. The third, representing the Esquecida, will arrive alongside Wonder Woman #785 on March 15, part three of Trial of the Amazons.
