I'm going to wait until I see what this redesign is all about. I don't trust that cropping of her face on the cover.
Aside from that, on a story level, I had always hoped that when Maxima returned that she had a whole dynamic of underlings and disciples go before her. The kinds of heraldic characters befitting of a monarchy who would cause trouble and drop her name before she even got there. At the very least a simulacrum. I mean, she's been out of sight for quite a while. What has she been up to? There's an element of mystery worth capitalizing on. Perhaps it's just me, but I'd go for a slower reveal. We'll see.
Also, no offense to the Supergirl fans out there, but if this is really a debut for Maxima, this seems like a demotion from the original in Action Comics. We'll see what happens, but I still have the bad taste in my mouth coming from new 52 Cyborg Superman.
