I agree, its much worse.
At least Wonder Girl appearing can be explained with a throwaway line confirming Diana exists somewhere and doing something important.
But getting to see the parody versions of the character before we see the actual characters sounds like a bad plan.
As expected laser_man is making a big deal out of absolutely nothing. This is nowhere near anything of an issue that he's making.
Just highlight their differences instead of obsessing over their similarities. Hell it would be easy to do as you simply need to highlight Midnighter being a violent maniac who gleefully kills people and brags about the computer in his brain.
Batman..... obviously wouldn't do any of that and its a good way to establish his no kill rule by contrasting his morality vs a man who has little of it.

Yeah, not written as a "new to the in-universe superhero community" but "not previously seen by the audience". You don't really need to do detailed backstories for everyone. You can just say Diana has been in the JL for years and leave it at that, especially if she's not gonna show up in the show often. Which has been done before and it worked reasonably well.
Tried my hand at the "All-Star Superman Doomed Planet, etc, etc," origin recap but for Wonder Woman. Used art from Jimenez, Scott, and Sampere.
Mark Russell and Mike Allred hope to do a WW mini series in the same world as SM:Space Age & BM: Dark Age

Both Space Age and Dark Age are period pieces centering on the characters experiencing the changing decades and coinciding with major events of the times. With Space Age cataloging 1960's to the 1980s against the backdrop of the Cold War and Space Race as Superman deals with the potential and then inevitable apocalypse of his entire world.
Space Age is pretty good and if Dark Age proves the same I would love a WW rendition of the concept.

Allred? the guy who wrote X-Statix? I has a curious.
