This volume continues the story of Red One, the Russian superheroine, sent over to the US in 1977 to promote Soviet ways during the SALT talks. It deals with her confrontation with the religious fanatics and the Carpenter.It's gloriously tongue-in-cheek, taking in the porn industry, Christian evange...
There's less focus on her bisexuality/implied polyamory**, and it's simply less witty. It's also less crazy. That is, Harley seems offbeat here, but not quite as predatory, homicidal or mentally ill as in the next series. And the thing is that all those things in the third sentence may not s...
Wonder woman is keeping a low profile and trying to work out what she thinks about having to kill Maxwell Lord to save Superman. She's trying to work out a place in the world by working as an agent for the Department of Metahuman affairs. Circe is back and wants her revenge and is adding in reanim...
First of all, this is technically a second story arch in a series. There is however a "Previously on Wonder Woman" page, where you can read what happened in the first novel. Basically, Wonder Woman did something that society and the other heroes don't particularly agree with, and she has to go int...
Title of the volume sounds familiar? The sandman, right? Preludes and nocturnes. Joke's on Gaiman.Well, it's awesome how Harley was split from the Joker in these first issues of her own comic. Great backstory and exciting flashback of the first interview with the Joker. Gonna read more now!
I've heard very good things about Gail Simone's run on Wonder Woman, so I went in with high expectations. Luckily, I wasn't disappointed. Yay! This particular volume feels very exposition-y, and it bears remembering that this is right after the highly ill-advised Amazons Attack! storyline (which I a...
After the events of Infinite Crisis, Diana apparently went off by herself to do a little soul searching. In her place, Donna Troy took up the mantle of Wonder Woman. Oh, how I wish this book had been about Donna's turn as Wonder Woman. But that went came and went very quickly, maybe within the first...
To get this out of the way: having Jodi Picoult write Wonder Woman was a blatantly obvious publicity stunt on DC's behalf. But that's fine, because most of the issues here probably have little, if anything to do with who was writing it. This crap came from on high.To start with, we have Diana taking...
YESSS. Wonder Woman is drawn strong, statuesque, and even her fibbie suits can't quite conceal her defined muscles. I was wary that getting Picoult to write a comic about a lady superhero was a marketing gimmick, and perhaps it was. I don't much care why they got Picoult to write this trade; I'm ...
