We needed to approach her with reverence and respect. And also wanted to give her a sense of purity in how she is drawn, something clear in her appearance, overt and forward.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Now doing this, and then setting her next to Batwoman produces fascinating juxtapositions of their styles and nature of their characters. Batwoman being shadowy and a bit withdrawn, Wonder Woman being bold and vibrant. They do have things in common with their sense of purpose, but yet also things that make them quite different from each other, and them coming together brings out complimentary aspects much in the same way Batman and Superman do for each other as characters. The result is a compelling union of two iconic women that bring balance to how they can be perceived.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>* DC has unveiled Cliff Chiang&#8217;s variant cover for Action Comics #12 and the combo pack cover by Rags Morales.<\/p>\n<p>The issue will be in stores on August 1.<\/p>\n<p>* A five-issue story arc in DC Universe Presents will feature Black Lightning and Blue Devil.
