Wonder Woman #75 Review: The Battle for Themyscira

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 #71 Review: A Colossal Discovery

We’ve had a bit of a talky go of it lately with Wonder Woman. Atlantiades is not the sort of villain you stop with fisticuffs, or even a villain at all, really. More an interesting conundrum, a deity in a strange place doing what only comes natural to them, seeking worship. And toying with mortals,Continue reading “Wonder Woman #71 Review: A Colossal Discovery”

Wonder Woman #70 Review: Love is a Battlefield

Our gal Diana has been through a lot recently. Ares is back, and being a real jerk. Veronica Cale is up to her usual tricks. Olympus is destroyed and the Amazons are missing. Giant rock monsters are roaming through the mountains of Colorado. She’s been put through the wringer ever since G. Willow Wilson tookContinue reading “Wonder Woman #70 Review: Love is a Battlefield”

Wonder Woman #69 Review: Insert Hilarious Joke Here

Let’s just deal with the obvious right away. This is the sixty-ninth issue of the latest Wonder Woman series, and the story is about a small town that’s gone mad with lust. Well played, everyone. A few other DC books have hit #69 recently, or they will shortly, but I don’t know if they’ve leanedContinue reading “Wonder Woman #69 Review: Insert Hilarious Joke Here”

Wonder Woman #62 Review: Making Peace with the God of War

The first arc of G. Willow Wilson’s run on Wonder Woman draws to a close this week, bringing the war in Durovnia to an end while leaving us with a lot of unanswered questions for our heroine and her divine associates moving forward. This was a storyline that raised a lot of heavy issues, forContinue reading “Wonder Woman #62 Review: Making Peace with the God of War”

Wonder Woman #61 Review: Love Will Lead You Back

After taking a break over the holidays last week, Wonder Woman is back and set to dominate January. Or rather, lovingly induce the willing submission of January. The point is, we’re going to get three issues of Wonder Woman this month, and that should be a lot of fun. This run has been great soContinue reading “Wonder Woman #61 Review: Love Will Lead You Back”
