The celebrated creator of Murder Falcon and Extremity and artist of The Ghost Fleet, Daniel Warren Johnson, brings bold sci-fi chops to his DC debut, Wonder Woman: Dead Earth, a harrowing vision of Wonder Woman, unlike anything you’ve ever seen in a new, four-issue DC Black Label series.
Princess Diana of Themyscira left paradise to save Man’s World from itself. When Wonder Woman awakens from a centuries-long sleep to discover the Earth reduced to a nuclear wasteland, she knows she failed. The world is destroyed. Earth’s heroes have failed. Trapped alone in a grim future, Diana must protect the last human city from titanic monsters that have taken over the Earth while uncovering the secret of this dead Earth—and how she may be responsible for it.
The 4 issue series will be written and drawn by Warren Johnson and colored by Mike Spicer. Warren told Newsarama Quote:
“I like the audacity of an immortal hero saying to a human, ‘I do this because I love you,’” Warren Johnson explained. “That line is in the first issue, actually. I was thinking, what better way to explore how much a character loves a maybe undeserving humanity than to really test the limits of where that love goes when confronted with the harsh reality of what humanity is capable of? Within this world, humans are doing their best to survive, and when humans are trying to survive, a lot of times the worst parts of ourselves come out. So that’s on full display here in Wonder Woman: Dead Earth.”
