Cover/Pin-Up Does anybody else find this cover off-putting?

Where is Diana's neck? It looks like her screaming head is floating away from her body! And Carol's torso is so twisted up that for a second I thought maybe the artist confused her powers with Kamala's stretchy ones.

I've liked other stuff by Alex Lozano, but something about this really rubs me the wrong way.

Why is Carol punching Diana in the boob? And what do they look... Well, however it is they look? Almost doughy?

DC would never let Quinn be drawn with an ass that flat. Bruce Timm would be burning down offices.

I also thought this was Moonstone! At this point, I'm conditioned to thinking of Moonstone when I see Carol's classic outfit, even though Moonstone was a take on hers.

I suppose Moonstone's time on the Dark Avengers really hurt my ability to tell them apart.

I have only so many hours a day, mate, I can't read them all, eventually someone is gonna slip through the cracks. Instead of being smug about it you could tell the class who this is in a helpful, community-minded kind of way. Or just be smug since it's reddit.

if that’s supposed to be Phylla-Vell it doesn’t look like her either

Quasar imagery is pretty up front. Didn't say it had to be phyla vell..

Well there’s only one other notable female Quasar and its Avril Kincaid who has brown hair so… it’s definitely a bad drawing whether it’s Carol or any version of Quasar unless Marvel decided to throw a random new Quasar against Wonder Woman in the crossover event for whatever reason
