In partnership with Palm NFT Studio, DC Comics will drop a variety of NFTs featuring Harley Quinn and Wonder Woman as well as Superman and Batman.

The announcement made to Bitcoin.com News explained that the NFTs were selected by DC’s chief creative officer and publisher Jim Lee. “We spent a lot of time on how to translate and adapt these classic covers into a 21st-century format such as NFTs,” Lee explained in a statement sent to our newsdesk. “This drop pays homage to our 87-year history while visualizing a future in which NFTs play a foundational role in novel ways of interacting with DC content and unlocking new experiences.”

The announcement details that the 2020 DC Fandome saw 22 million global views across 220 countries and territories in a mere 24 hours. The firm expects 2021’s Fandome numbers to exceed last year’s, making it the “first large-scale virtual event with registration powered by NFTs, and very likely one of the largest NFT drops ever.” The company said it collaborated with Palm NFT Studio because the company is “flexible as artists are creative.”

DC can mint millions of NFTs “with almost zero cost” thanks to blockchain, DC details.

Wonder Woman can collect a Common (1987’s Wonder Woman #1 by George Perez), Rare (2021’s Nubia and the Amazons #1 by Alitha Martinez), and/or Legendary (Yara Flor on 2021’s Future State: Wonder Woman #1 by Jenny Frison) cover.

Instead, it’s a sustainable storytelling platform that can reshape relationships between creators/fans,” Dan Heyman, co-founder of Palm NFT Studio explained during the announcement.
