Absolute Wonder Woman

Absolute Wonder Woman is a superhero comic book series published by DC Comics, based on the character Wonder Woman. The series is written by Kelly Thompson and illustrated by Hayden Sherman. It began publication on October 23, 2024, as part of DC's Absolute Universe (AU) imprint.

The series focuses on a version of Wonder Woman who was raised in Hell rather than Themyscira, as in most depictions of the character. This Diana is less a symbol of peace and more a mythic warrior-queen struggling between compassion and conquest.

The comic has received critical acclaim due to its characterization of Diana, reinvention of the Wonder Woman mythos, and the artwork by artist Hayden Sherman. It won two Eisner Awards for Best New Series and Best Coloring and was nominated in three additional categories.
