A teenager takes the presidency in a corporate-run America

Set in 2046, this dystopian political satire builds its premise around a country where corporations can run for office and elections unfold on social media. Oregon teenager Beth Ross becomes president after a viral accident turns her into a national figure, placing her in a role shaped by entrenched misrule and a corporate shadow government. The collection gathers the six-issue PREZ series, a short story from CATWOMAN ELECTION NIGHT #1, and a new short story, bringing together Beth’s unlikely election and the wider political system surrounding it.

Book overview

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.
