Alexandria Donkey-Chompers "Comic Book" Slapped With a Cease-and-Desist Letter by DC Comics, Citing Trademark Infringement

I think this was just a variant cover for the stupid comic book we've already heard about.

So here was one cover:

Okay, that is obviously patterned after Wonder Woman, but they could probably get away with it under the parody exception.

But this is not really parody. This is just infringement:

The publisher issued a cease-and-desist to a small comics company barring it from selling covers of the freshman Democrat in attire resembling that of Wonder Woman, according to comics sites.

Devil's Due Comics is running a comic about AOC called "Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and the Freshman Force: New Party Who Dis?"

Apparently there were only 250 copies of this variant printed.

This is not a popular comic book. But they're playing to a devoted group of fanatics.

Meanwhile, the few copies that made it to the stands before the cease-and-desist are selling for $300 a pop on auction sites.

Can you feel the socialism?!
