Although many people already see fairy tale characters as heroes and heroines in their own right, the [Disney](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/disney-wedding-dresses-1) princess superheroes series take them to the next level. Inspired by [comic books](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/super-heroes-vs-villains) and other franchises including 'Harry Potter' and 'The Hunger Games,' Disney princesses have been given a serious makeover. People will love seeing their favorite cartoon royalty in more badass roles.

Created by Isaiah Keith Stephens, a recent graduate from the New England Institute of Art, the Disney princess superheroes series not only envisions them as classic [Marvel](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/girls-crew) and DC Comic characters, but also as more recent heroines. For instance, Pocahontas takes on Katniss, Aurora as Daenerys Targaryen and Belle as the equally bookish Hermione. Perhaps this Disney princess superheroes series will inspire people to blend the worlds for an epic movie.
