That Variant Cover for Superman/Wonder Woman # 3 Proves That

... sex in space is possible. But it will require either parentage from Greek pantheon or genetics from a dead alien race to actually pull it off. 


Yes folks, DC Comics will be releasing this variant cover to Superman/Wonder Woman # 3 which looks like the Man of Steel and the Amazonian Princess just did the horizontal mambo in space. Cover is done rather tastefully by one of my favorite artists, Guillem March.

Here's the entirety of the cover.


A bit fanservice-y aint it? Also, the solicit.

SUPERMAN/WONDER WOMAN #3
Written by CHARLES SOULE
Art and cover by TONY S. DANIEL and BATT
1:25 Variant cover by GUILLEM MARCH
1:100 B&W Variant cover by TONY S. DANIEL and BATT
On sale DECEMBER 11 • 32 pg, FC, $3.99 US • RATED T
Combo pack edition: $4.99 US
Retailers: This issue will ship with four covers. Please see the order form for details.

The way I see it, people are polarized by the book, some loving it others be hatin' (I'm with the former though) especially after seeing Superman kinda beating up Diana's brother Apollo. Still, it offers a great read with some of the best panels and splash pages done by artist Tony S. Daniels in years.

Superman Beats up a Sun God - Superman/Wonder Woman # 2 Spoilers

I like Superman/Wonder Woman as a series because its a friggin' new element. It's a New 52 book which does what the New 52 intended to do, bring new stuff into the table. It does that with much gusto and with so much promise thanks to the characters and rogues from both the Superman and Wonder Woman books. Case in point Superman/Wonder Woman # 2.


The book is written by Charles Soule with art by Tony Daniels.

Solicit: Whom the gods destroy, first they piss off! Seeking help against Doomsday, Diana turns to her brother Hephaestus for weapons—but a more immediate threat is Apollo and the other gods. They do not approve of Superman as a consort to Diana, and he will have to prove himself in combat!

If you're looking for context here, Diana and Clark face off against Diana's family especially the new king of Olympus, Apollo.

Wonder Woman of course does not approve of her brothers' action against her boyfriend but before she can do anything, Clark is back on his feet.

While I enjoyed this scene very much, I must agree with the comments from the source, this was rather forced. Felt more likfe fan-service rather than an actual intelligent comic book fight. Of course the other comments were mean and rude but to hell with them. I liked this one.

Plus Strife's reaction to the beatdown was pretty too.

I'm picking up Superman/Wonder Woman # 1 and #2 during this weekend's Komikon. Hopefully they do have that on that convention.

Superman/Wonder Woman Title Announced

IGN broke the news today that DC Comics will be releasing a new book entitled "Superman/ Wonder Woman' which will show adventures featuring two of DC's most powerful heroes [who also happen to be in a relationship]


The new series will be similar to this month's SUPERMAN/BATMAN book with artist Jae Lee but will feature writer Charles Soule (Swamp Thing) together with current Action Comics artist Tony Daniels. Expect the title to hit your LCS, October 2013.
