The world of Disney is full of princesses, damsels in distress, and courageous male knights in shining armor. DC and Marvel comics too, are predominantly full of male superheroes, with a severe lack of strong female presence. It's not exactly the most empowering message for young girls. But what happens when we combine the two worlds and turn the Disney princesses into superheroes and show young girls that princesses too can be as strong as Disney princes? The illustrators at Bright Side did just that and the results are incredible. Check out the modern-day Disney superheroes below and let us know what you think!

Lesya Guseva is an extremely creative Russian artist. She has taken us through time and space and created a series of illustrations called "Pensioners" in which she gives us a sneak peek at some superheroes, heroes, and even some villains, and what their retirement future might hold for them...
If you are a true fan of Marvel, you know the main characters in basically every movie. But for those who have not seen every single Marvel movie (and have basically been living under a rock!), they may get a little confused with the characters... Just like @gabregan wife did.
