We've seen a lot of Absolute Batman ever since Bleeding Cool first leaked the cover and/ then the insides of the ashcan. But of Absolute Wonder Woman? Aside from the covers, designs and that one splash page from DC All In Special, not so much. Which is why Kelly Thompson, aware that the comic book will be up for Final Order Cut Off on Monday, did the decent thing and dropped some more black and white inks by Hayden Sherman from the first issue in her Substack, to follow up what she posted previously.

Run… to your local comic shop and order the first issue? Yes, that must mean what she meant. HEre's what she posted before…
Absolute Wonder Woman by Kelly Thompson and Hayden Sherman is published by DC Comics in October as part of a new shared continuity reinvention of the DC Comics Universe. And on her Substack newsletter, Kelly Thompson has been posting snippets. Including Wonder Woman with a protective facemask…

Absolute Superman and Absolute Batman must be standing on boxes. Here are the solicitations for Absolute Wonder Woman #1 and #2.
