Here’s a better look.

The cover would be lampooned on Twitter.

Heel vs Babyface wrote, “AT&T please just shut this embarrassment of a company down. They have no respect for the characters nor their audience. License out the characters to people that actually care.”

Former DC Comics artist Mike Miller, who is currently crowdfunding The MAGAnificent 7 on IndieGoGo, wrote, “Are you this out of touch with the fans? Look at the comments here. I can’t find ONE that thinks this is a good idea. I’m not saying anything about the artist, just… this is Wonder Woman. Come on.”

Father Chris Miller simply wrote, “garbage” and then shared a Family Guy meme.

The Tardis Zone wrote, “I had a poo that was betrer than this piece of crap and more satisfying.”

The Doktor added, “Is “rad” short for “radioactive” in this instance? As in, this cover is going to give everyone cancer?”

The Dunadan wrote, “What in hades…..? What, did she give up fighting evil and decide to battle ice cream Instead?”

While plenty of people criticized the artwork, others showed off their own artwork in the stylings of the cover.

Twitter user Makini1990 shared their work-in-progress version to Twitter writing, “Saw the WW84 Cover and thought I could have fun with my own version :)”

George Alexopoulos shared his version to Twitter as well writing, “What’s that you say, DC? A thicc Greek woman living in Astoria, Queens during the 80’s who beats up men? All you had to do was ask.”
