"...AND HERA... GODDESS OF WOMEN."

PIC(S) INFO: Spotlight on an inked, published, & textless double splash page of Hera, Queen of the Gods of Olympus, Goddess of Women, from "Wonder Woman Historia: The Amazons" Vol. #1. January, 2022. DC Black Label. Artwork by Phil Jimenez (among others).

"Hera sees with a thousand eyes. She is your queen bitch, your sin-eater. Hera bears the burden of foresight. A prophetess, Hera knows your pride and your rage before you do... Every bruise to your dignity burns her like fire. She is branded with it. And she loves you beyond reckoning, for you all belong to her."

Repost from Phil Jimenez @PhilJimenezNYC, artist on Wonder Woman Historia: The Amazons Vol 1. I’m the artist on Vol 2!: “Just going over color on #WWHistoria #Vol1…” “The colorists on this book as @evergreenfajardo, @arifprianto.arf, and #HiFi — worked their asses off on some of the most complex art I’ve ever created, and I will never be able to repay them for the blood, sweat, and many tears that have ended up on these pages.” “Colorists are unsung heroes in our business and deserve way more credit — and $$ — than they are given for the work they do.” “I hope you’re enjoy their work as much as I do. #WWHistoria #Vol1 is due in stores 11/16. It’s written by the extraordinary @kellysued, who inspired the best work of my career on this project.” “#WonderWoman #Amazons #OlympianGoddesses #secrethistory #BlackLabel #graphicnovel @dccomics” https://www.instagram.com/p/CVDmKGNrBmV/?utm_medium=tumblr

"....A THREE-BOOK ODYSSEY CHARTING THE HISTORY OF PRINCESS DIANA AND THE AMAZONS FROM THE MOMENT OF THEIR CREATION..."

PIC(S) INFO: Spotlight on textless and published cover art to "Wonder Woman Historia: The Amazons" #1 (of 3 issues) of the series "Wonder Woman Historia: The Amazons" (Vol. 1). January, 2022. DC Black Label/DC Comics. Artwork by Phil Jimenez & Romulo Fajardo, Jr.

OVERVIEW: ""Wonder Woman Historia: The Amazons" is a three-book DC Black Label series that shows us the first days of the Amazons like nothing before it. Spanning thousands of years, the book begins with the righteous rage of the goddesses and the passion of its pages never lets up from there.

Hestia. Artemis. Demeter. Hecate. Aphrodite. Athena. Hera. Their names are familiar and comforting, but you’ve never seen these mythological figures like this. Hera isn’t merely a jealous wife, as some of the stories of old would have you believe. The Goddess of Women, gifted with foresight, sees all and knows all. After witnessing the unending pain inflicted on woman after woman at the hands of men, the wife of Zeus burns with a fury brighter than any sun.

Hera takes the grievances of thousands of women and the injustices of thousands of years to her husband and the gods of Olympus. The other goddesses stand at her side as she says plainly, “We have had enough of men.”

Zeus and the gods dismiss them with condescension. In the depths of Hades, at the Well of the Lost, the goddesses put their own plan into motion—one that will ultimately rock the very heavens themselves. As these powerful women create the Amazons from the souls of those lost to violence and massacre, their gifts are stunning in their generosity and power.

The first Amazons are as unique as the goddesses who create them. Their names can be found in both books of myths and comics: Penthesilea, Io, Pythia and Antiope. Each goddess, except Hera, calls forth a tribe of five. These first Amazons aren’t “warrior women”—they are warriors. As the book comes to a close, we meet Hippolyta and the fateful decision she makes that will eventually lead her path to cross with theirs."
