sensation comics featuring wonder woman

Sensation Comics Featuring Wonder Woman published one of the character’s greatest stories ever last month: “Wonder World,” written by James Tynion IV and illustrated by Noelle Stevenson, told over the course of digital chapters 23 and 24, and published in print this week in Sensation Comics #8.

ComicsAlliance readers get an exclusive first look at the latest covers for DC Digital's next two print editions of Sensation Comics Featuring Wonder Woman, featuring the Amazonian warrior brought to life by Michael Zulli and Francesco Francavilla. The stories feature cats, dragons, Lois Lane, and a pop starlet, but the covers offer two other visions of DC's most formidable hero. Zulli, best known for his stunning painted work on Sandman, portrays his Wonder Woman armored up and ready for battle on the cover for Sensation Comics #10. For issue #9, cover artist superstar and Black Beetle creator Francavilla offers a glamorous pop-art inspired '60s take on the hero.

One of the great strengths of DC's digital-first line of comics is that it's a showcase both for emerging talent and for some unorthodox storytelling approaches. DC's digital wing plays to the strengths of the anthology format, telling the sort of stories that the main line just isn't interested in telling. For a character like Wonder Woman, an icon beloved by a lot of people who aren't invested in the rigmarole of month-to-month continuity, the approach is especially liberating. The latest writer to tackle Wonder Woman for the digital-first Sensation Comics series is Amy Chu, an up-and-comer who we've profiled in the past. Chu has collaborated on short stories with Larry Hama, Steve McNiven, and Janet K. Lee, and has self-published her comics through her Alpha Girl Comics imprint. Her Sensation Comics story, 'Rescue Angel,' tells a Wonder Woman tale with a focus on a different female warrior, a young combat pilot, with art by Bernard Chang and colors by Wendy Broome.
