DC's line of Wonder Woman 1984 comic book variants are back on the schedule, now pegged to run as variants to some of January's 'Future State' issues.

Here's what they are, where to find them, and when:

Here's all nine of them:

These will be available exclusively as variant covers to print editions of these issues at participating stories.

These Wonder Woman 1984 comic book variant covers were originally announced to come out with several December DC issues, but a month before their planned release DC postponed them to 2021 to "align with Wonder Woman's 80th anniversary year."

There was concern that Warner Bros. might postpone the Wonder Woman 1984 film to 2021 as well due to the ongoing pandemic, however, they instead expanded its December 25 theatrical release to open simultaneously on the HBO Max streaming service.
