razzatazz's Wonder Woman #44 - Wrath of the Silver Serpent, Part 3 - Cut From a Pound of Flesh review

What it means to be an Amazon

This is a nice wrap-up to the Gail Simone run on Wonder Woman.  Instead of trying to leave some legacy on the character as others have done, she chooses simply to tell a good story.  It mostly involves Diana at battle against the champion of the invaders, a bizarre offshoot of Amazons.  Gail has portrayed the character well here - Diana resorts to fighting when necessary but spends most of the time trying to reason with her opponent.  In the end she is successful and does a good job of showing to the warriors what it means to be an Amazon.  There was also a portion at the end where various characters get sort say goodbye (including the gorillas).  In fact with the redesign looming this issue is the last the fan will see of some of the traditional portrayals of the character.  It ended well with this in mind.

Cover: I did not like the cover.  I do like the art of Nicola Scott, but the battle armor was ugly and kept thinking of Rambo when I looked at it.  Art: As said above, I like Nicola Scott's art and apparently Travis Moore's as well.  The action scenes were very well done and only one part of the art besides the cover took me out of the story.  And that was the appearance of Lieutenant Zusen.  While she looked excellent, it just reminded me too much of Avatar.  Plot/Story: The Citizenry attack Wa...
