An awesome new artwork allows Wonder Woman to shine like a true '80s icon with a variant cover in the style of a poster for an old-school power fantasy. Diana has had a lot of amazing adaptations over the years, but this cover makes one pine for a long-gone cinematic era.

As 2024 winds down, fans are getting a peek at what lies ahead in the new year thanks to DC Comics' batch of solicitations for February 2024. The month is full of exciting new offerings, including the revival of Green Lantern Corps. But Wonder Woman fans are going to want to check out this month's variants, including one by David Talaski.

Talaski's cover shows Wonder Woman standing confidently against a black background. She's backlit and glowing as her Bracelets of Submission gleam and her Lasso of Truth shines in the darkness, a tableau not unlike posters from '80s action movies.

As part of its new "All In" initiative, DC Comics has announced Zatanna, a new six-issue comic book series launching next February. Writer/artist Jamal Campbell will take charge of the series as the Mistress of Magic finally goes back on tour.

"Wonder, mystery, mischief, and fishnets make up the core of a quintessential Zatanna Zatara stage show, and it’s high time she returned to the spotlight," Campbell says. "In her newest DC Comics series, Zatanna is dragged down a rabbit hole of cursed swords, hidden truths, and multiple brushes with death."

"She’ll need all her wits and every spell she can muster in order to make it out the other side in one piece."

According to the publisher, this new Zatanna comic book will see the hero get her stage crew back together as she looks forward to a new, less chaotic chapter of life. However, her...

DC Comics is preparing to bring back Zatanna with a brand-new and in-continuity solo series. Along with other characters like Black Lightning, the Question, the Challengers of the Unknown, and more, Zee is the latest "minor" but fan-favorite DC character to take back the spotlight in an All In-era miniseries.

DC has announced that the all-powerful magician will return in February 2025 for a six-issue miniseries, Zatanna, by writer/artist Jamal Campbell and letterer Ariana Maher. Though Zatanna has appeared many times in recent years as a supporting character - especially in Bat-Family and Justice League Dark stories - she is finally starring in an in-continuity story all her own in the new year, with a full supporting cast to boot.

Warning: Potential Spoilers for Superboy: The Man of Tomorrow #1New cover art for the upcoming Superboy: The Man of Tomorrow #1 shows off Conner Kent's attitude just as much as it shows off his costume.

DC Comics' newest Aquaman, Jackson Hyde, has taken up the mantle and begun making long overdue waves of change through the vast city of Atlantis. This bold, new take on Aquaman and what he stands for highlights where Arthur Curry fell short during his rule. As a hero to the surface world, a Justice Leaguer, and the King of Atlantis, Arthur had a lot on his plate that forced him to ignore one of the kingdom's biggest problems.

Atlantis is home to many different prominent characters, each hailing from a different province within the city, the most well known being Arthur Curry and Mera, the King and Queen of Atlantis, respectively. As the two most powerful Atlanteans, they've successfully protected their home from outside invaders for many years. While these feats are very impressive, the kingdom of Atlantis has faced much deeper, internal struggles, including problems of prejudice and disdain for the province of Xebel.

It looks like Harley Quinn might finally get to play the role she was born for. DC Comics has revealed DC's Harley Quinn Romances #1, an anthology one-shot filled with love stories with Harley at the center of it all.

If there's one thing that's known about Harley, it's that she's completely ga-ga over the notion of love. Love was the deciding factor in her leaving behind her life as a psychiatrist and becoming the Joker's sidekick. And it was love from her closest confidante that helped her leave the clown for good and start a more positive relationship with Poison Ivy. Harley isn't just passionate about her own love life, as she gets positively giddy at seeing others strike up close bonds. She's even played the role of matchmaker in the past. Crime and chaos may be Harley's forte, but her primary interest is always going to be love in all its forms.

DC has big plans for June’s Pride Month, including the launch of an 80-page anthology comic featuring Lgbtqia+ characters from across the DC Universe.

The anthology DC Pride #1 will feature cameos by Batwoman, Renee Montoya, Alan Scott, Midnighter, Apollo, Extraño, Poison Ivy, Harley Quinn, Constantine, and more. The DC Pride creative teams, and the characters they’re developing stories for, are:

• Batwoman (Kate Kane) by James Tynion IV & Trung Le Nguyen

• Poison Ivy & Harley Quinn by Mariko Tamaki & Amy Reeder

• Midnighter by Steve Orlando & Stephen Byrne

• Flash of Earth-11 (Jess Chambers) by Danny Lore & Lisa Sterle

• Aqualad (Jackson Hyde) by Andrew Wheeler & Luciano Vecchio
