Add a CommentFinally, a killer Wonder Woman story! Every panel, every page rocks.
I enjoyed this partial "reboot" of Wonder Woman. I like a lot of woman warriors (Valkyrie, Sif, Black Widow) but I've always been a little bored by Wonder Woman. Maybe it's because she's from DC, not Marvel. Azzarello makes Wonder Woman interesting with some good twists, some pathos for Wonder Woman and fun versions of the Greek gods.
Rather indifferent art that is perhaps self consciously trying to be rough and expressive, without too much success. The story is not so good either. A lot of talk and intrigue, some of it hard to follow. My second New 52 graphic novel is a big disappointment.
Cool to see the brutal pantheon of Greek gods in the DC universe.
Azzarello takes the reins of the Amazon Princess with this first collection of the rebooted DC universe. I like his take on the character, attention to detail, and storytelling as he unveils a new status quo and background for the character, as well as the people around her. The art seemed a bit off to me- not quite to my tastes.
I really enjoyed this graphic novel. It is definitely one of the better books from DC's New 52. Azzarello's portrayal of Wonder Woman is not only better, but more true to the character than how Geoff Johns wrote her in Justice League.
