    Last week we saw the cover reveal for JUSTICE LEAGUE #12 featuring Superman and Wonder Woman establishing new boundaries in their...relationship.

    No Caption Provided

    DC has released a time-lapse video on their blog showing Jim Lee draw the cover. He makes it look so easy it's enough to make you cry.

    Imagine how much that cover will sell for. JUSTICE LEAGUE #12 is on sale this week!

    I don't like how skinny Lee draws Wonder Woman. I much prefer how she looks in her solo book.

    @cincyducksfan35: I think it's the regular cover. The cover in the solicits is supposed to be the variant now IIRC.

    I think it is a beautiful cover. Really neat watching the time lapse, shows a bit of his process which is fascinating.

    Amazing!

    I want to see it in real time, because there are so many questions after that video.

    Did he really just start from scratch after a couple tries?

    They probably are. And I'll accept it if the rumors of a Wildcats revival are true.

    That looks like a heck of a lot of work for one piece (regardless of it being a cover).

    @ThanosIsMad: There are two rumors on Bleedingcool. One that he's doing Wildcats. The other is he's leaving for a new superman title called Man of Steel written by Scott Snyder.

    Both sound cool IMO.

    Fantastic, shame they did not comment how long this took real time or show all his rough sketches so you get the progression as well as the final piece.

    I got an account here just to ask this: am I the only one to notice how incredibly fubar WW's arm is? We can see the back of her elbow, which transitions (somehow) to the inside of her forearm.
