As much as I appreciate Greg Rucka's writing, I wasn't too fond of this graphic novel. Not an auspicious start to my Wonder Woman graphic novel reading career. I thought it was way too mired in politics. I hate politics. I don't see Wonder Woman as a woman of rhetoric, but a woman of actions which s...

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...

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...

Have I mentioned lately that Wonder Woman is really, really, amazingly cool? Luckily, Greg Rucka knows it, and writes her accordingly. I think this may be the point when I really start to get into his run. I feel like he's pulling together the elements of her personality, and of what she does. And y...

Bitter Rivals continues the overarching storyline introduced in the last collection, with no payoff in sight. I'm still trusting that when it comes, it'll be good. And for the most part, the writing is still satisfying. My favorite is, of course, the story that starts the collection: Wonder Girl (Ca...

The synopsis mentions plots by supervillains and gods, but that only barely gets started here. The main plot is about Wonder Woman's book, outlining her life and her philosophy. Remember: Diana is a feminist, polytheistic, and vegetarian. It's a no-brainer how some people would react to her, and tha...

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 ...

I've never been a huge fan of Wonder Woman, but see, that's how far I will go for Jodi Picoult. She's the only author who's ever acutally made me cry. (It was My Sister's Keeper that did it-anyone else have that reaction?) So I'm a pretty big fan of hers. I was excited to hear that she would contrib...
