EXCLUSIVE: She’s a wonder…

It’s a good time to be a Wonder Woman fan.

You’ve got Wonder Woman 1984 coming out in June…

… and the Amazing Amazon has recently been minted as the DC Universe’s canonical first superhero. (More details on that are coming in the new series of Generation one-shots announced by DC on Thursday and debuting in May.)

And then there’s this: The Wonder Woman #1 Facsimile Edition, also coming in May.

Dig the official solicitation info, to be formally released by DC later Friday:
