I don’t usually start my reviews with a spoiler, but if you read last week’s issue then you knew this was coming: Diana, princess of the Amazons, has returned to Themyscira. Which at first glance doesn’t seem like a huge deal until you remember that, apart from “Year One,” she hasn’t been to her realContinue reading “Wonder Woman #75 Review: The Battle for Themyscira”

Wonder Woman #74 Review: Reunited, And It Feels So Good
Some major things are happening in this week’s issue of Wonder Woman, leading to even more major things for Wonder Woman #75 in two weeks’ time, presumably. Quarter century issues are a big deal these days, maybe because so few comic books make it to a 25th issue, much less a 50th or a 75th.Continue reading “Wonder Woman #74 Review: Reunited, And It Feels So Good”
Wonder Woman #44 Review: The Fight Rages On! And Remains Terrible/Nigh Unreadable!
I had a really nice weekend, gang. I went to Chicago for C2E2, had a great time at the show, tried a poke bowl for the first time (it was DELICIOUS). It was excellent all around, and the fun started with a panel discussion about Catwoman at The Book Cellar with some super smart comicContinue reading “Wonder Woman #44 Review: The Fight Rages On!

Wonder Woman #42 Review: Jason Returns! From Where? And Why? Who Even Friggin’ Cares
It’s the second Wednesday of the month so we’ve got a new issue of Wonder Woman to dig into, and boy am I not feeling it today.

Talking about whatever new travesty James Robinson has inflicted upon us is notContinue reading “Wonder Woman #42 Review: Jason Returns! From Where? And Why? Who Even Friggin’ Cares”
Wonder Woman #37 Review: Thunderbolts of Jove, This Book is Bad
For Christmas this year, Santa Claus left me some Funko Pops in my stocking, both of them from the Wonder Woman movie. One was Antiope in mid-leap, holding a bow and about to fire three arrows in a recreation of an iconic scene from the film. The other was Etta Candy, holding Wonder Woman’s shieldContinue reading “Wonder Woman #37 Review: Thunderbolts of Jove, This Book is Bad”
Wonder Woman #36 Review: Can We Just Not, With Any Of This?
Let’s begin with a story. Last Wednesday, I woke up prepared to begin my usual bi-weekly Wonder Woman review routine. Buy the comic. Read it a couple of times. Think about it a bit and formulate some opinions. Then sit down and write out my review. However, I was mistaken. Yes, it had been twoContinue reading “Wonder Woman #36 Review: Can We Just Not, With Any Of This?”
Wonder Woman #34 Review: The Worst Family Reunion, On Multiple Levels
Although this is the 34th issue of the current incarnation of Wonder Woman, it’s also something more: When you add up all of the issues from past volumes together, this is actually the 700th issue of Wonder Woman! It’s a massive achievement. Apart from a few short breaks here and there, Wonder Woman has beenContinue reading “Wonder Woman #34 Review: The Worst Family Reunion, On Multiple Levels”
