After crafting what many consider the quintessential modern Wonder Woman origin story in Wonder Woman: Year One, acclaimed duo Greg Rucka and Nicola Scott are reuniting for a radically different DC project - Cheetah and Cheshire Rob the Justice League.

This audacious six-issue miniseries from DC Comics pairs legendary writer Rucka with fan-favorite artist Scott, featuring vibrant colors by Annette Kwok and crisp lettering from Troy Peteri. The project forms part of DC's continued All In publishing initiative.

While Cheetah and Cheshire might seem like unlikely partners at first glance, their selection carries special significance for the creative team. Rucka chronicled Cheetah's compelling arc during his celebrated Wonder Woman runs, while Scott previously brought Cheshire to life alongside Gail Simone in their seminal Secret Six series.

DC describes this high-stakes adventure as:

A meticulously planned heist story where DC's deadliest femme fatales attempt the impossible - breaking into the most secure facility in the universe. To pull off this dangerous caper, they'll need to assemble an elite crew capable of outsmarting Earth's mightiest heroes. But with so many professional backstabbers involved, surviving each other might prove tougher than defeating the Justice League.

"Let's be clear from the start," Rucka teased. "These aren't misunderstood antiheroes - they're outright villains who'd never get clearance for the Watchtower. We're putting them through absolute hell. For Cheetah especially, this heist represents her last chance at redemption... or destruction."

The series promises nail-biting heist sequences as the villains contend with:

• The Justice League's orbital Watchtower fortress
• Its cutting-edge AI security systems
• The small matter of Earth's most powerful heroes

Cheetah and Cheshire Rob the Justice League #1 claws its way onto shelves August 6, 2025.
