It's 2046 and America has just elected its first teenage president! Previously selected as one of YALSA s Top Ten Graphic Novels for Teens, DC s critically acclaimed political satire Prez is in a new format and more relevant than ever. Oregon teen Beth Ross has just been elected President of the United States of America. Age restrictions were abolished when corporations gained the right to run for office. Elections are now held on social media, and after a corndog accident makes Beth Ross go viral, a nation is shocked to wake up and find that Corndog Girl has just become their new president. The eyes of the world are on Beth. But in a nation so used to misrule that the poor are willing to do anything on TV for a chance at a better life, will a fresh start be enough to undo the damage caused by Boss Smiley and his corporate shadow government? Eisner-winning writer Mark Russell (Superman: Space Age, The Flintstones) teams with artist Ben Caldwell (Justice League Beyond) and others to revive and reinvent a classic! Collects PREZ #1-6, a short from CATWOMAN ELECTION NIGHT #1, and a brand-new short story.
Reformed crook Maria Dare has assembled a team of misfits to crack the world's weirdest cases! They have brains…they have guts…but they don't have a clue! And in their first adventure, the Dare Detectives are finished! Rent's due and their license is suspended, but Dare's going-out-of-business festivities are interrupted by Madame Bleu — whose abominable snowmen pets are on a chef-stealing, radio-robbing, snowpea-swiping crime wave! Dare races against the clock to hunt down Madame Bleu with the help of corrupt cops and Chinatown's old crime boss. But can these bunglers really prevent the most audacious — and inexplicably convoluted — crime of the century?
