Starting a thread called “When WB loses Lola Bunny’s rights” because I’m mad they made her less hot
As long as DC renews Trademarks, they will own the names and logos. And ownership of title names.
The rest goes into the public domain. That still won't stop DC publishing their own Wonder Woman and her derivatives. They're safe with using Earth 1 to up Wonder Woman stuff for long time.
All the public domain thing means is that others can do their own comics with the character. It doesn't mean that DC can't use Diana or the rest of the Wonder family any more, they'd only lose exclusivity. And there's no way they'll give up the rights any other way. Besides, it'll affect Bruce and Clark first.

The GA stuff keeps getting edited, let us get over being offended by everything! In my world...HISTORY is constant, no erasing things, just keep it real...ok??

Others wouldn't be able to use "newer" things made later. You would have to wait later for 1950's stuff to expire. Also stories have to expire too.
DC renewing their Trademarks would prevent people using the Wonder Woman name on the cover.
Honestly expect 50's stuff to up to be further renewed extensions wise for both DC and Marvel copyrights.
The non Disney Winnie is in the public domain.
