Wonder Woman October 2020 Solicits

I really hope that isn't Cyborgirl... her skin is way too light.

Yeah, that's the main drawback. A shame, because the mechanical aspects look neat and if we need such a character...why not use Cyborgirl?

If it is indeed her, hopefully another artist could adjust. It would also be neat to tie her into Dr. Cyber

Is there a reason I'm missing why everyone is assuming Max Lord's redemption is real. The text seems to indicate that it may not be as true as Lord is indicating. I question whether D.C. would truly want to redeem Lord. Personally, I hope they don't.

Mel Dyer, I hope you're right, and that's an updated Cybogirl. She looks like a great villain, if so.

I wouldn't be surprised if Dc comics isn't planning to replace Steve with Max Lord as WW new love interest! A bad guy dragging a good girl down into the gutter!

[Castling]

Max Lord as a good guy while a movie is portraying him as evil comes out is a bit funny.

We don't know that Lord is evil in WW84.

You believe that, and I have a sea side cabin in Oklahoma to sell you.

Sorry for breaking with the general consensus of the board but I'm curious about the developments with Maxwell Lord and don't hate him as a WW villain. A lot of these are interesting to me. Can't wait to see what Bendis does with Cassie, because it can't be as predictable as it sounds.

The cover for #765 reminds me of this...

so it already has a head start.

Seems Max with a gun is bad.

Zandia is a New Teen Titans reference, ..to Brother Blood, specifically. I think that is Cyborgirl.

So instead he holds a flashlight gun??

I'm placing bets on the villain being Dr. Cyber. I just can't see them whitewashing Cyborgirl. Though it's probably a brand new villain given Wonder Woman tradition.

I'm not sure if that's Dr. Cyber as Dr. Cyber seemed more traditionally white. Dr. Cyber also had a more punk-rock vibe before her death.

This character doesn't look traditionally white to me...more tan. Maybe a biracial character, Hispanic or Middle Eastern. I wouldn't consider that white-washing although it would still be problematic.

Last, would D.C. comics care about changing the race of a d-list character, at best? Dr. Poison was changed to a blonde white woman in New 52, and she has been German in the live action film, the animated film and the DC Legends game.

[SiegePerilous02]

The mechanical parts look like some of the designs Sharp did for Cyber. Maybe she has an android body and she can put up cloaks to disguise it (this one happens to be non-white).

Logic dictates that this should be Cyber or someone connected with her. But this is DC, so we know it won't be.

[VonHammersmark]

She looks like a light-skinned black woman to me, like Beyoncé or Halle Berry

[Dr. Poison]

Ads and solicitts for the run mention there will be new villains because you know, Diana doesn't have any good rogues lying around that would fit this story.....

[SiegePerilous02]

Eh, at least we only have to put up with it until the next inevitable relaunch/reboot, in which hopefully whatever author they pick wants to dust off some of the classics.

I'd rather not see many old school villains used in what is shaping up to be a period of filler anyway.

Hehe, Glad to see I wasn't the only one who thought of this cover by Adam Hughs.
