Sensation Comics featuring Wonder Woman #42 Review: “Nine Days, Parts 2 and 3″ by Karen Traviss, Andres Guinaldo, and Raúl Fernández

The three part “Nine Days” wrapped in today’s Sensation Comics, bringing to a close a story that never seemed to find its footing. There was a lot going on, with Strife and Eris, two sides of the same goddess, interfering in diplomatic relations between two hostile, neighbouring countries, with Wonder Woman in the middle trying

Sensation Comics featuring Wonder Woman #42 Review: “Nine Days, Part 1” by Karen Travis, Andres Guinaldo, and Raúl Fernández

First off, things got busy last week and I didn’t have a chance to write a review of Sensation Comics #41, the finale to “Our Little Dance” by Adam Beechen and José Luis Garcia-López. It was fine. If you read the first issue, the second issue concluded about how you would expect. Wonder Woman had

Women At DC Comics Watch – September 2015 Solicits: 19 Different Female Creators On 16 Different Comics

Women At DC Comics Watch – October 2013 Solicits

After a rather humdrum September that was brought down by a lack of female participation in the Forever Evil villains month titles, October is looking a lot better for DC in terms of female characters and creators.  While a lot of the action is temporary, specifically from a new Vertigo one-shot anthology, the numbers are

Women At DC Comics Watch – September 2013 Solicits

I had high hopes for September, what with Villain Month bringing in 52 new leading characters and some opportunities for DC to mix it up creatively.  The results were disappointing, as I chronicled over at Bleeding Cool.  For the mainline DC books, there were both fewer female characters and creators then there had been the
