Timed with the one-year anniversary of the first chapter of DC Hybrid NFT Trading Cards by Hro, fans can now pre-order Chapter 3, which features limited-edition designs from New Line Cinema and DC's new Super Hero film Shazam! Fury of the Gods.

TURNHOUT, Belgium, March 16, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- In celebration of the all-new action adventure Shazam! Fury of the Gods, Cartamundi Group, the worldwide leader in playing cards, and Warner Bros. Discovery Global Consumer Products are proud to announce that the newest chapter of DC Hybrid NFT Trading Cards by Hro is launching and will be available for pre-order at www.shop.hro.gg on March 16, 2023.

DC Hybrid NFT Trading Cards allow fans to collect designs showcasing iconic art from DC's comic book history, including fan-favorite characters like Batman, Superman, Wonder Woman, and so many more. In Chapter 3, the journey continues across multiple eras and worlds within the larger DC Multiverse, while also making a pit stop in Philadelphia for some super-sized fun alongside the Shazamily in celebration of the release of New Line Cinema and DC's Shazam! Fury of the Gods, in cinemas from Warner Bros. Pictures on March 17, 2023. It's sure to be the perfect addition to your hero lair!

"Cartamundi is excited to once again work alongside Warner Bros.

"As a company, we're committed to bringing our global partners and fans unprecedented experiences and innovative solutions, while expanding the capabilities of our 24/7 global collectibles marketplace."

How to Join the Hro Community

With this newest chapter, Hro will continue offering fans unforgettable trading card designs that feature art spanning all eras of DC's comic books. On the back of each physical trading card is a QR code that connects it to its digital "twin" on the Hro mobile app, which is validated and backed up by the security of blockchain technology. Once the physical and digital twins are linked, the Hro app and web platform then give buyers access to a global marketplace to buy, sell, and trade their way to a complete collection. This innovative model also plays host to a 360° fan engagement platform where users can compete to uncover the rarest cards, rise to the top of community leaderboards, and unlock the chance to win special rewards.

The film is directed by David F. Sandberg and produced by Peter Safran. It is written by Henry Gayden and Chris Morgan, based on characters from DC; Shazam! was created by Bill Parker and C.C. Beck.
