Painkiller Jane #1; written by Jimmy Palmiotti and art by Lee Moder
Wake up early enough and it'll be time to go back to bed again. Unless that head wound on the side of the face happens to mean that it's more than just waking up with drool on the pillow.
Jane Vasko was once an undercover police officer attempting to infiltrate the Fonti Mob. After gaining the trust of mob boss Joey Fonti, she was given the assignment of passing a message onto rival gang member Adam, not realizing that she was planted with an explosive device. As she met her target, the explosion caused significant injuries, but Adam was uninjured.
Through mysterious means, he managed to revive Jane, giving her superhuman regenerative powers in the process. Leaving her life as a police officer behind, she became the vigilante Painkiller Jane.

Wonder Woman #1; written by Allan Heinberg, art and cover by Terry Dodson and Rachel Dodson
Currently somewhere in the midst of pre-pre-production, Joss Whedon just turned in the script to the Wonder Woman feature film. Far from anything solid yet, actresses with names and histories are reportedly jumping all over trying to land the role. Probably won't happen if casting another "unknown" is in the cards.
Until the big screen, and after that little
neck breaking incident, Diana Prince makes it back from the wilds in the comics...
One year after the execution of Maxwell Lord and the earth-shattering events of INFINITE CRISIS, the DCU is still struggling to come to terms with its most powerful heroine. Is she a martyr or a murderer? A politician or a super hero?
Writer Allan Heinberg (Young Avengers, JLA, TV's The O.C. and Sex and the City) and artists Terry & Rachel Dodson (Marvel Knights: Spider-Man, Harley Quinn) provide surprising answers, giving Wonder Woman a fresh, sexy look and a bold new direction!
The series begins with the multi-part "Who Is Wonder Woman?" story arc, paying homage to the character's distinguished history while placing her firmly in the present with an all-new supporting cast, a brand-new mission, and a renewed sense of wonder.
A treat for longtime fans and a perfect jumping-on point for new readers, Wonder Woman #1 features the icon you know and love as you've never seen her before!

Civil War: Front Line. A ten part series down in the trenches of the Superhero Registration Act. Nothing to do with trademarks.
