DC Comics: Bombshells #4
This volume continues the alternate-history saga of the DC Bombshells universe, focusing on the Queens—a coalition of powerful heroines including Wonder Woman, Batwoman, Hawkgirl, and Vixen. As World War II rages on, these women lead their respective forces against supernatural threats and Axis powers, with Queen Mari McCabe and Shiera playing pivotal roles in the fight for freedom. The collection gathers issues from the 2017 series, highlighting the strength and leadership of these iconic characters in a reimagined wartime setting.
In "The Batgirls Fly by Night," Wonder Woman and Steve lend their support to Kara as she grapples with the loss of her sister, while Shiera uncovers a startling truth about her origins—she’s not from Earth, but from the distant planet Thanagar. As Wonder Woman journeys to rejoin the team in Zambesi, she’s met with an unexpected offer from Lex Luthor: an alliance. Written by Marguerite Bennett and brought to life by artists Matías Bergara, Laura Braga, and Mirka Andolfo—with inks by Braga and Andolfo, colors by J. Nanjan, and letters by Wes Abbott—this 2017 issue blends emotional depth with rising stakes, all wrapped in Ant Lucia’s striking cover art.
In "Men Who Would Be Kings," Vixen gathers Batwoman, Catwoman, and the Question at her Zambesi base, where they face a sudden threat: the Cheetah, wielding control over a swarm of mechanical jungle beasts. The tension rises as the team must navigate both the wild terrain and the cunning predator behind the machines.
In "Mechanical Gods," Vixen, Batwoman, Question, Hawkgirl, and Catwoman find themselves captured by the Cheetah, only to be freed when Hawkgirl devises a daring escape. Trapped in a high-stakes showdown, the team faces off against the Cheetah’s towering mechanical construct—just as Wonder Woman arrives to turn the tide.
In "Remembrance," Wonder Woman and Steve lend their support to Kara as she grapples with the loss of her sister, finding strength in shared sorrow. As Wonder Woman prepares to rejoin the team in Zambesi, she encounters Luthor, who offers an unexpected alliance. Meanwhile, Shiera’s investigation into the mechanical monsters leads to a startling revelation about her true origins on Thanagar.
In "What's Past Is Prologue," Jo and the Bombshells are stunned when Catwoman seemingly defects to the Baroness, but her true intentions run deeper than loyalty—this is a high-stakes gambit to dismantle the Nazi threat from within. The story unfolds with tension and cunning, as trust is tested and alliances are redefined in the shadow of war.
