Issue Notes

This one-shot was offered as tie-in to the Wonder Woman 1984 movie. It was available first as a Walmart Edition, available only at Walmart, and was followed a few weeks later by a later Direct Market Edition available to comics retailers. Both editions have a base cover by Nicola Scott plus variants.

These stories were originally intended to be published in a Wonder Woman 1984 Mass Market / Direct Market 100 page giant, but DC discontinued their Giant line in June 2020 and replaced them at Walmart with a series of sealed 4-packs of DC Comics. The second wave of DC 4-packs were available at Walmart in September 2020. The Walmart Edition of this comic was only available as part of one of these sealed DC 4-packs, specifically Pack #5 of the 4-packs that were released in September 2020.
This issue is a variant of Wonder Woman 1984 (DC, 2020 series) #1 [Walmart Edition Nicola Scott Cover]. There exist further variants:
