Talking Cerebus into starring as ‘Luke’. Satan as Princess Leia. Making light sabres out of fluorescent bulbs filled with gasoline. Who will be ‘Han Solo’? Jingles? Cerebus? Batvark?

Beatrice as the princess leia hologram (‘Help me, Dan-te Alighieri, you’re my only hope.’) She looks like her. She sounds like her. Let’s make her the trailer and ’round-file’ the rest of this.

But long brewing tension turns Diana’s sister against her, giving the Cheetah her opening to place yet another God to the blade of her God Killer Sword. The kicker? The Cheetah thinks she’s helping Wonder Woman.” Pre-Order Now Related shopping tags: DC REBIRTH, WONDER WOMAN
