Tom Bancroft is a freelance artist who is also a former Disney supervising animator (Mushu from Mulan for example). He recently did a few sketches of Wonder Woman this past weekend in the Disney style.
I’ve never, ever figured out why DC and Warner Bros. don’t do more to market Wonder Woman to…
I gotta say… this is an intriguing notion.
