It was a very good week for awesome superhero chicks in the hands of some great writers and artists. Too great to pick just one…check these out…
It’s no surprise really that some Cliff Chiang Wonder Woman is showing up. You go Diana with your badass Amazon self. From Wonder Woman #2:
This great panel by Brian Michael Bendis and Daniel Acuna from Avengers #18 is the kind of fly on the wall (no pun intended) superhero stuff I love, plus it’s gorgeous:
Jesus Saiz did so many fun things in Birds of Prey #2 this past week that I couldn’t pick just one. First there’s this:
And then this one, which you have to give to both Saiz and writer Duane Swierczynski as it’s both the writing and art that really brings it home:
Same for this one…although you maybe need to know that Katana is talking to her sword, which she believes holds the soul of her dead husband. I just love the joke about Starling’s tattoos:

Ryan Sook has been killing these DC Universe Presents covers with Deadman and issue #2 is no exception. In truth I liked it better when the background was more graphic and less detailed, but it’s still great:
Cliff Chiang continues to bring it with Diana on these Wonder Woman covers with issue #2:
I also really like this Daniel Acuna Avengers #18…but I’m a bit of a sucker for the idea of Captain America going through a bunch of headshots to choose his new Avengers team. Bonus points for Rogue being considered. How far we’ve come my girl, how far we’ve come! Course we all know it’s going to be Storm, but points for being on the table!

I’ve been excited for a while now about the forthcoming announcement from Image that Ross Campbell is doing the art for their new GLORY book. Look how crazy buff she is?! I love it!!!
You can read more about the new Glory book from Image as part of the rebirth of Extreme Studios on iFanboy here, and on CBR here.

It’s just too damn hard to scan pages out of J.H. Williams III’s Batwoman on my itty bitty scanner…also, I’d need to scan like the whole damn book for this feature, so I’m just going to use this (which I grabbed from DC Women Kicking Ass before it was lettered) as the STUNNING panels of the week. Amazing stuff.

These Buffy The Vampire Slayer Season Nine covers from Steve Morris have been awesome. I like this one for issue #2 even more than the first issue:
Obviously the amazing J.H. Williams III’s Batwoman #2. GORGEOUS:
Also some gorgeous moody work from Massimo Canevale for Northlanders #45:
Hey kids…Part 4 of The Comics Project is up on She Has No Head!
Head on over to check out what the last batch of new DCU 52 readers thought of their books
Is there anything that can beat the perfect simplicity of Kate Beaton’s Napoleon from the cover of Hark! A Vagrant? No, no there’s not.
Also, did you guys check out my CBR Review of the collection? No? Do so now! 
But since I don’t usually consider graphic novels, trades, and collections for this feature…
Chris Brunner and Rico Renzi’s gorgeous Static Shock #2. Wonderful color work, composition and movement:
Also, this offering from Stormwatch #2 (much superior to what was originally solicited) by Miguel Sepulveda and Alex Sinclair is pretty awesome. Giant eye with tentacles? YES.
