This series not only reunites Rucka and Scott but also brings together Cheetah, a central figure in Rucka's previous Wonder Woman runs, and Cheshire, a prominent character from Scott's earlier work in the "Secret Six" series with Gail Simone. The combination of these characters harks back to the creators' storied histories at DC.
According to DC's official synopsis, "Cheetah and Cheshire Rob the Justice League" follows the titular characters as they meticulously plan and execute a bold heist at the most secure facility in the DC Universe. Their goal is to acquire one of the most dangerous devices in the DCU, and they need to assemble a top-tier crew capable of outsmarting the Justice League. The series promises high stakes and intense action, with the heroes of the DCU standing as the only barrier to the villains' success.
Rucka shared his excitement about the project, stating, "This is a crew of villains, or at least nominal bad guys. Not one of them has access to—let alone would be welcomed aboard—the Justice League Watchtower. We’re not making this easy on them. But for Cheetah especially, this is an all-or-nothing play—she needs to do this job, and she’s not going to let anything, or anyone, keep her from getting what she’s after."
Mark your calendars for the release of "Cheetah and Cheshire Rob the Justice League #1" on August 6, 2025.
