Synopsis for "Panicked at the Disco"
Zatanna announces that she's organizing a dance and only Batgirl feels excited, while Wonder Woman is confused thinking it's some sort of ritual. The other girls explain that it's a typical part of growing up as a teenager, Zatanna states that the most important thing is suitably dressing up for the occasion. Diana determines that they'll stay in their civilian clothes and when asking what else they need to do, gets told by Bumblebee someone needs to ask to accompany them for the dance.
Diana immediately drags Bumblebee outside and makes Garth Bernstein accept taking her to the prom. Noticing Steve Trevor, she tells him to arrange transportation for taking her to the prom. Batgirl next informs her that they need a disco jockey and recommends herself, but Zatanna states that Livewire also wants to be the D.J. Batgirl however convinces Zatanna to let her play the music and states she has a new device she wants to try out.
On the night of the dance, everyone is busy socializing or dancing except Supergirl, Jessica Cruz, Bumblebee and Garth. Zatanna makes them all dance, but the party soon gets attacked by Livewire who forces everyone to keep dancing endlessly with a special frequency. She also states that she has blocked all the exits, but Zatanna alerts the girls about the photo booth scenery stand where they can change into their superhero costumes.
After changing, the girls fight Livewire and Batgirl tries to unplug the music system, but the dancers get attacked by Livewire. Diana intervenes and allows her time to unplug the system, while Jessica bounds the villain with a rubber tire. The girls decide to get ice cream while taking Livewire to the police.

Synopsis for "Chapter One: The Journey"
This story is reprinted from DC Super Hero Girls: Hits and Myths.
Batgirl struggles against the villain Lion Mane on the Metropolis Docks when Supergirl shows up and knocks him over. Wonder Woman saves him from falling but he makes her unhand him, stating that she won't ever tame him, before proceeding to throw a smoke bomb. The heroes realize it contains the smell of kitty litter and fly away. Supergirl and Wonder Woman are unable to find Lion Mane, who realizes that Batgirl is stalking him. As he nears around a corner, he gets smacked by her in the face with a fish before being entangled in the Lasso of Truth. The girls threaten him to come quietly, otherwise they'll submerge him in the water, and he is later handed off to the police.
Wonder Woman tells her friends to take Lion Mane to the Special Crimes Unit while she deals with some things before going to school. Flying off, she saves a dog from being run over and gives it back to its owner, before picking up her usual cupcake from Steve Trevor. As she heads home, she gets contacted by Hippolyta who states that preparations have been made for her sleepover with her friends at Themyscira. Diana states she needs to hang up as she needs to read the Odysseus for school. At school, she gets repeatedly interrupted and is unable to read the book even in library as everyone keeps talking.

Synopsis for "Chapter One: Gimme a Summer Break"
This story is reprinted from DC Super Hero Girls Free Comic Book Day 2017 Special Edition #1.
Bumblebee joins Wonder Woman in fighting the Double Dare twins, causing them to run away. The two heroes chase after them and soon nab them, before returning Silver St. Cloud's purse and turning the two robbers over to the Metropolis Special Crimes Unit. Batgirl and Bumblebee feel joyous as they were the last villains they needed to deal with, making Wonder Woman if there are others on the loose. Supergirl however after checking up on Arkham Asylum and Belle Reeve states there aren't any prisoners on the loose, while Batgirl finds that the police also have put up no bulletins, which means they're free to go on a summer vacation.
Wonder Woman feels reluctant about leaving Super Hero High and suddenly feels a breeze of wind. She however soon realizes that it was created by someone running away from the heroes at a quick speed. As they catch up to the mystery person, the discover that it's Diana's Olympian half-brother Hermes, the messenger of the gods. Hermes states that he was sent to deliver a message to her from Zeus at noon, but he has a habit of arriving early which is why he was running. As the clock strikes 12, Diana opens his parchment and finds an invitation from Zeus to stay at Olympus for the whole summer. Diana finds it strange as Zeus usually ignores her and she's never spent so much tie on Olympus.
When Hermes asks Diana about her answer, she states she'll think about it. He responds that her half-siblings would like to get to know her more, including Siracca who's also staying at Olympus and is quite like how she was at her age. Diana later informs her mother about it, leading the latter to ask whether she will go. Diana states she feels unsure even though she wants to get in touch with her Olympian heritage, before suddenly hearing a knock on the door and finding Hermes standing outside who tells her that she can bring whoever she likes. He responds that he's been told to wait for her answer when she asks if he's spying on her and goes back to drinking his coffee from Capes & Cowls Café. This leads her to ask if he paid for it and he runs back to do so.
Diana later asks her friends and schoolmates if they'll go with her, but no one except Bumblebee agrees. As the two head to her invisible jet, Hermes tells them that he can simply teleport them there. As the girls arrive on Olympus, he leaves them alone for a while and promises to meet them again during dinner. The two are suddenly hit by a gust of air as a voice shouts about not wanting Ambrosia.

Synopsis for "Chapter One: Intro to Prehistory"
This story is reprinted from DC Super Hero Girls: Past Times at Super Hero High #1 and DC Super Hero Girls: Past Times at Super Hero High #2
Batgirl swings towards the school bus fitted with a time machine for a field trip to the past when dinosaurs lived as Liberty Belle asks her students for permission slips from their parents, and tells Supergirl that she is very interested in them. As all the girls hand their slips, Harley rushes towards the bus and tells Liberty Belle to wait, before accidentally tripping and falling on her. She heads into the bus after collecting all of Liberty Belle's slips and tells Batgirl to ask her if she has any questions since she is the biggest dinosaur fan, though this just annoys Barbara.
Bumblebee states that she won't be coming since merely thinking of time travel makes her sick. Liberty Belle later tells all her students to not leave the bus when they're in the past so they remain safe and do not interfere with history, before turning on the non-interference shields of the bus and making it take them back to 145 million years earlier. Batgirl and Harley meanwhile get into a fight over who knows more about dinosaurs before Diana interrupts them. As they reach their destination, all the students react in amazement at the site of dinosaurs before, but soon find a bunch of allosauruses charging towards their bus.
Liberty Belle drives off with the bus as the allosauruses attack it, but finds it difficult to manoeuvre, with Batgirl suggesting that she drive instead as she knows how to evade using a four-wheeler. Belle acquiesces but this upsets Harley who wants to drive instead. Batgirl soon leaves the allosaureses behind but their bus soon gets crushed in half by a waking diplodocus' tail. The front half containing Batgirl, Harley and Liberty Belle soon gets sent flying by it, but everyone survives as it lands in a nearby field. Wonder Woman then tells everyone with her to stay in the bus so they don't interfere with history and everyone decides to wait for the people in the front half of the bus to return.
Batgirl after being unable to find Liberty Belle believes she was left in the back half of the bus, but Harley alerts her to their teacher being abducted by a pterodactyl. Batgirl tells Harley that they have to rescue her and bursts her bubblegum when she thinks she is being casual about it, though Harley states she is serious. Meanwhile as Beast Boy complains about being hungry, he and his fellow students get attacked by an allosaurus but escape before it devours them. Wonder Woman reminds the others of Belle telling them about not to touch anything if they don't want to alter the past, leading Katana to advice that they not alert any creature to avoid it from happening.
Beast Boy decides to transform into a brachiosaurus and gives the girls a ride on his back so they do not come into contact with the dinosaurs and soon finds himself confronted by a hostile stegosaurus.
