“There’s nothing more daunting than re-designing an icon, but what was refreshing and novel in Joe Straczynski’s directive to be bold in our choices was that we were starting with no preconceptions. This was no mere tweaking, no change of half-measures like haircuts or alterations of color schemes. We decided to go for broke, take [...]
“We have to remember here that when Wonder Woman was introduced in 1941, nearly 70 years ago, her outfit was designed with a 1940s sensibility. Though the skirt and heels have come and gone, it’s almost identical to what we have today. While other characters, from Batman to Superman and others throughout the DC Universe, [...]

Sci-Fi heroine Summer Glau (Serenity/Firefly, Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles) provides the voice of Supergirl, and seven-time Emmy Award winner Ed Asner (Up) reprises his Superman: The Animated Series/Justice League role as Granny Goodness.
Based on the DC Comics series/graphic novel “Superman/Batman: Supergirl” by Jeph Loeb, Michael Turner & Peter Steigerwald, Superman/Batman: Apocalypse is produced by animation legend Bruce Timm and directed by Lauren Montgomery (Justice League: Crisis on Two Earths) from a script by Academy Award-nominated screenwriter Tab Murphy (Gorillas in the Mist).
After a spaceship splashes down in Gotham City Harbor, Batman and Superman encounter a mysterious Kryptonian with powers as great as those of the Man of Steel. The Kryptonian is soon revealed to be Kara, cousin of Superman, who takes her under his wing to educate her about the ways of Earth. However, the villainous Darkseid has other plans. Seeing an opportunity to finally defeat Superman, Darkseid abducts and gains control of Kara, utilizing the powerful Kryptonian to do his bidding. It’s up to Batman and Superman to save Kara, but they’ll have to take the fight to Darkseid within his hostile world – where unknown, deadly threats lurk around every corner, including a brainwashed Kryptonian able to match Superman blow-for-blow.

ComicBookResources.com spoke with Paul Cornell to get further details on his Lex Luthor story taking place in “Action Comics”, starting with this week’s issue #890. Here’s a portion of the interview…
It’s a tightrope between the two, really. I don’t want to revel in his villainy. I think that sort of puts a little distance in between being able to understand him as a real character. I want us to enjoy him, and we’re free to enjoy him as soon as he’s up against a bunch of villains who are worse than he is - or at least who are at the same level of villainy that he is. But at the same time, I don’t ever want us to forget what a bad guy he his. My touchstones would be Mike Carey’s “Lucifer” or “Tomb of Dracula” by Marv Wolfman. In those books, to an extraordinary degree, we were never allowed to see the lead characters doing a single good thing, but they remained compelling protagonists because the people they were up against were of an equal level of awfulness.
Starting today, Wonder Woman will appear like you’ve never seen her before.
