Go tell it on the Mount Olympus
Issues such as this one are a strange example of the Perez era. So much of which he wrote helped to firmly establish the character in the present, but he among other themes which he explored, religion and faith is one of them. Diana and Hippolyta have been summoned to Mount Olympus to partake in a ritual which will destroy it so that it can be built anew. The Amazons are needed for two reasons. First of all, they are pretty much all that’s left of those who follow the Greek Gods. Secondly if the amazons agree to it Diana must be on hand to direct the massive energy blast to destroy the mountain. Both the Amazons and Diana agree. Most of the issue dealt with this religious aspect and a debate about what good are gods who ignore their followers. This made for a decent enough discussion, and the little bit of action with Diana directing the blast was well handled. I also liked the explanation of the bracelets, now Diana’s whole costume has been given meaning by Perez except for the round earrings and the tiara. Overall a decent issue, but nothing very spectacular, just a little bit better than average.
