Donna Troy's dead? again!?!

Gotta luv Wonder Woman. This arc, although it was good, isn't going to rank alongside the bigger arcs currently swirling around the DC Universe. Not to say it wasn't all that and then some. Gail did work son. Its just not the type of arc that's going to bring in new fans (in my opinion). But this could be the starting point in which Wonder Woman finally takes her place alongside the Batman, Superman, and Green Lantern arcs. There's momentum now and all the DCU has to do is capitalize on it. Okay rant over ;)

As far as issue #33 goes, it was great. The development of a new character, Achilles (yes that Achilles) is something that's been missing from Wonder Woman comics since.........pretty much ever. Although he's not really one of her Rogues in this arc, events have  been set in motion in which they could possibly become hated adversaries in the near future. There's so much I wanna say but it would spoil the issue. Babs mentioned how a certain scene reminder her of the Wonder Woman animated movie and in some ways I felt the same about a different scene which takes place towards the end. It reminded me of one of the first JLA episodes that involved Felix Faust (no he's not in this issue). If you wanna read a comic with that, "us against them last stand" type of vibe then this is your issue. If you wanna read what I believe to be the beginning of a new era for not only Wonder Woman, but the Amazons and Olympians as well, this is the arc.

(P.S. Babs, it wasn't Poseidon who unleashed those sea creatures it was his son. Euphemus :D)

Wow...Superman off-planet, Batman dead and now this with Wonder Woman... DC is making History. Change is nice, and it's good to break some traditions.

It would be awesome if wonder woman had children, but stuck with the justice league!  She'd be too proud to take maternity leave.  A pregnant superhero how PC is that!

A pregnant superheroine would be cool. As long Nemisis is not the father! Boy I really wouldn't like that. "

Har har! But they belnged to Poseidon! Did I say that he was the one to unleash them? ;) "

Yeah I'm not feeling Nemesis either. That would be a huge mistake in my opinion. Hopefully the DCU has a better suitor lined up for WW.

Damn it this looks really good and I'm going to be broke spending all my money on comics.

" @Babs: Did you ever seen the Simpson's episode where Grampa says: "if a stranger offers you a ride, I'd say take it."? - That's more or less how I feel about him. "

LOLOL I can think of a few select people... "

From what I read it seems that Achilles is taking Wonder Woman's place and she has been banished from Themiscyra, but I could be wrong. I gotta read it again.

She sorta banished herself. Which would make it more of a self imposed exile. But your right. "

Funny how video reviews of comic books show how I've been mispronouncing character's and writer/artist's names wrong for years. I've always pronounced Wonder Woman's mother's name as "Hippo-Lita".

nice review ,babs

Great review (as usual), Babs.

I do like Wonder Woman's ties to Greek mythology, but lessening them would serve to make her more closely tied to the DCU as a whole. If Gail Simone is staying on the book, it can only turn out well.

JTLYK, Gail Simone liked your review!

Great review!!!

Neat review =) Who did the art for this Issue of WW, cause he did an awesome job. For a moment I thought it was Dodson, but he's on X-Men...

P.S. Why do you keep smiling when you say Hippolyta's name or anything relating to Hippolyta..?

Nice review.  I love Simone's characterization, and there have been some cool moments on this run: Polly's guard hacking her way out of a megaladon (they get a lot of abuse), gorilla entourage, taking her lasso back from Genocide.  But the stories haven't seemed to flow well from hook to hook and scene to scene.  This issue's finale blew me away though.  Great ending, and a natural character progression.  I can't wait to see where Simone goes next.

And the art is beautiful - it really captures the emotion and physicality of the characters.

Is there word on who DC has lined up to "replace" Gail as writer of Wonder Woman?  It will frankly be an impossible task, anyone you would like to see take over?

I smiled when I say Hippolyta!? I had no idea. Maybe I had trouble pronouncing her name or something silly like that  lol!"

lol, I thought it was cause you thought she was cool (cause you said Wonder Woman had a cool Mom).

I've only read The Circle and Ends of Earth. I've got them  in trade paperback. So far it looks very promising, but Gail has a long way to go to be compared with the great genius of George Perez. I love the old mysticism and mythology, Babs! How could you ever want that to disappear? Unlike Batman and Superman and many other iconic heroes Diana is defined by mystery, her own quest for who she really is. Mystery is the main element behind her story. If you take that away, you take away her quest, her odyssey, for her true self, and it would - to me at least - not be Wonder Woman anymore.

Totally need to get into more Wonder Woman. My first stories of her were from Gail Simone and they were great. Need to check out more.

I dont think I want anyone playing Wonder Woman other than Lucy Lawless...I know i'm corny :P

A little disappointed that Ares went down with one puch -and there is alot of questions that are raised after this issue. But after reading the issue again -and again- and yet again- I think it is a  5 star issue. Gail Simone is for sure one of my favorite writers. Wonder Woman is definetly one of my favorites.
