Message is lost in the Medium
For the third issue in a row this story is told from the vantage point of ’s article. Here the outsiders to have found Diana and the one who has been pulling the strings in the chaos that has befallen the festivities. This has turned out to be Eris (Ares’ daughter) who is trying to complete what her father started by making mankind tear itself apart. Diana fights against her imprisonment until free and then uses her lasso on Eris which stops her once she discovers the truth about human conflict, that it is always destructive and without purpose. It is a good enough lesson, but it gets lost a bit in the mixed format approach that they have taken. It is also not groundbreakingly original as it is a pretty similar message as the initial first 6 issues of the series. Perez could have done better here, but instead relied on an old standby, and it feels like it.
