    Just curious to see what Wonder Woman stories people here like the most. I'm still somewhat of a new fan so I haven't read as many stories with Diana with as I'd like. Partly because my local comic book shop doesn't have many and Comixology doesn't have much aside from the big ongoing runs. Here is my list:

    1. The Circle (vol. 3 #14-19)

    2. Brian Azzarello's Run (vol. 4 #1-35 / Not sure what else to call it)

    3. Ends of the Earth (vol. 3 #20-25)

    4. Gods and Mortals (vol. 2 #1-7)

    5. Dig for Fire (Sensation Comics vol. 2 #16-18)

    Can be more or less than 5 if you want.

    The only ones I really liked were Gods and Mortals, Who Killed Myndi Mayer, and maybe the Hiketeia

    Eyes of the Gorgon was reasonable, as was A League of One, Challenge of the Gods was okay, Gods of Gotham was kinda' good.

    I really need to read more Wonder Woman, I don't think I've read any stories I disliked, just haven't read a lot that wowed me. I've intended to check out The Circle for quite a while now, but have a big backlog of comics I want to read at the moment.

    In no particular order

    Gods and Mortals

    Azzarello

    Paradise Found

    Eyes of the Gorgon

    Golden Age WW or the Labors of WW from the Bronze Age which essentially re-established WW as a top tier hero after her depowered years ... not sure you can really call either of these stories in the same sense as the more modern stuff, but IMO they are the foundation for the character.

    Chronological order, but Eyes of the Gorgon is my fave:

    Gods and Mortals (Vol. 2 1-7)
    The 18th Letter (Legends of the DC Universe 30-32)
    Eyes of the Gorgon (Vol. 2 206-210)
    The whole of Rucka's final stretch, not exactly a story, but collected as a TPB called Mission's End and there is the general plotline of the unravelling of her mission (Vol 2 218-226)
    The Circle, especially if we include the Expatriate 2-parter in the TPB (Vol. 3 14-19)

    HM: Perez's Cheetah story that introduces the Bana amazons, Messner-Loebs' Space Arc, Jimenez's Day in the Life

    In no specific order - Azzarello's run (on account of Chiang's sumptuous artwork), Perez's Cheetah+Bana Mighdall arc, Paradise Found, The Circle and Who is Wonder Woman
