Digital Series Launches January 6, 2021
Issue #1 Arrives in Comic Book Stores March 2, 2021
Can you believe it!?! Wonder Woman is turning 80! In 1974, Cathy Lee Crosby was the first live action version of the then depowered Wonder Woman caught on film, followed by Lynda Carter in 1979 for the television series and now Gal Gadot puts on the gauntlets and tiara for a second time on Christmas Day in Wonder Woman 84.
Let’s also not forget the amazing women who voiced Wonder Woman from the Super Friends all the way through Justice League Unlimited and some of the DC Animated Features, including Shannon Farnon, B.J. Ward, Susan Eisenberg, Keri Russell and Rosario Dawson, as well as a couple I might be forgetting.
Now, DC Entertainment takes on a first looking in an all new Digital First series entitled Sensational Wonder Woman! All the official information is below.
Official Synopsis:
A combination of fan-favorite storytellers and trailblazing new writers and artists are coming together to celebrate Wonder Woman’s 80th anniversary with an all-new DC Digital First series, Sensational Wonder Woman. Published weekly, this reader-friendly, high action series is poised to deliver dynamic, standalone stories that are free of continuity, giving hardcore fans even more Wonder Woman action to love and new fans a fun starting point to enjoy stories and provide a gateway to discovering more about Princess Diana.
For the first digital arc, newly announced Harley Quinn writer Stephanie Phillips, Wonder Woman: Agent of Peace artist Meghan Hetrick and colorist Marissa Louise pit Diana against the evil Doctor Psycho. During a battle with the villain, Wonder Woman sacrifices herself to stop him, the impact from his psychic blast trapping her in an alternate reality. With the help of guest-star Hawkgirl, Diana must remember who she is before it’s too late.
Future digital/print arcs will spotlight Diana teaming
up with other allies from the Wonder Woman mythos, such as Cheetah, Steve Trevor, Hippolyta, Wonder Girl and others. The stories come from a host of talented creators, including writer/artist Colleen Doran, Alyssa Wong and Eleonora Carlini, Mirka Andolfo, Corinna Bechko, with more to come.
Sensational Wonder Woman #1 by Stephanie Phillips and Meghan Hetrick arrives on all participating digital platforms on Wednesday, January 6, 2021, with a main cover by Yasmine Putri. The print version arrives in comic book stores on Tuesday, March 2, 2021 and will also include a variant cover by EJIKURE.
