Wonder Woman Vs. Commander Steel From DC Comics in October
Bleeding Cool also has the solicitation to Wonder Woman #2 being published by DC Comics in October 2023 which gives this image context.
Daniel Sampere tweeted out "I've been allowed to share with you our cover for Wonder Woman #2! This issue is going to be EPIC Colors by @tomeu_morey and script by @TomKingTK". The cover shows Wonder Woman using her bracelets to deflect bullets from an aggressive army force, with the impacts interpreted as the stars of her costumer. It's gorgeous. And it follows on from the solicitation for Wonder Woman #1, "After a mysterious Amazonian is accused of mass murder, Congress passes the Amazon Safety Act, barring all Amazons from U.S. soil. To carry out their plans, the government starts a task force, the Amazon Extradition Entity (A.X.E.), to remove those who don't comply, by any means necessary. Now, in her search for the truth behind the killing, Wonder Woman finds herself an outlaw in the world she once swore to protect!"
