Happy Holidays, Violently

Just a quick post to wish you all happy holidays and a happy new year, and to remind you that DC comics let us make you a beautiful Christmas Treat in the form of ABSOLUTE WONDER WOMAN #15 (guest-starring this guy you might have heard of…BATMAN).

One look at the opening DPS from Hayden and Jordie is really all you should need to tell you how fun it’s going to be:

You can read the full preview here at Comic Book Club.

In addition to incredible reviews and feedback coming in on the issue, it was included in Comics Beat’s weekly picks.

And there’s this great piece about the incredible success of the ABSOLUTE LINE at the Hollywood Reporter this week.

Hayden, Jordie, and myself (first time ever!) did a podcast together to promote the private CGC signing we’re doing next month. Apologies for my audio quality — I have asked for new headphones for Christmas, fingers crossed!

Deadline to send in books for signing is 12/31/25 — more info at the link.

IGN’s Best Comic Book Of The Year is ABSOLUTE WONDER WOMAN! Quite honestly? Hell, yeah.

An incredible mention/win for us also on Sktchd. And just a great write up of some of the best books and creators in the industry.

Alex Jaffe on DC.com gave ABSOLUTE WONDER WOMAN his top spot as well. Thanks, Alex!

In case you’re sick of ABSOLUTE WONDER WOMAN (shame!) BookRiot ran a really nice piece about both BIRDS OF PREY and GREEN ARROW ending.

Absolutely fantastic Diana fan art from around the world is still delighting me. This one by Caterina Mazzei:

Also, this Absolute Zatanna is maybe the greatest cosplay I’ve ever seen. There are a bunch of shots at the link, so if you like the one below make sure to click. And here’s the photographer’s insta.

As a last present for 2025…some sneak peeks from ABSOLUTE WONDER WOMAN #16 (January) and the first ever Annual (February).

First up, from Hayden Sherman and Jordie Bellaire from AWW #16:

And from the Annual — with art/colors by Mattia De Iulis:

So fucking gorgeous. I am the luckiest girl.

And a big thank you to all of you for an incredible year, none of this is possible without readers like you. I will do my best to bring even more in 2026.

I hope all of you are enjoying some combination of family/friends/food/break, or will over the next week or so and that we all are lucky enough to get a better 2026 than this past year. Hug the ones you love and take care of yourselves, it’s a marathon, not a sprint.
