    Wonder Woman

    Character » Wonder Woman appears in 8719 issues.

    The Amazon princess, blessed with god-like super abilities, Wonder Woman is one of Earth's most powerful defenders of peace, justice, and equality and a member of the Justice League. She is considered an archetype for many heroines outside of comic book. Her initial origin depicted her as a clay baby brought to life by patron goddess Aphrodite, but in recent years she has been depicted as the daughter of Zeus and Amazon queen Hippolyta.

    So I've heard great things about N52 Wonder Woman, and I've read the first issue, and I love it. My plan is to get the trades at the library, and start buying individual issues from the current arc on. So my question to you, Comic vine users is when did the newest story start? Or is a new one starting very soon, and I might as well wait for that?

    And any other wonder woman stories to recommend while we're at it?

    It's been one long arc so far broken into chapters, kind of like a novel.

    Chapter 1: (Issues 1-6) Blood

    Chapter 2: (Issues 7-12) Guts

    Chapter 3: (Issues 13-18) Iron

    Chapter 4: (Issues 18-24) War

    As far as other Wonder Woman stories:

    George Perez's Gods and Mortals
    Gail Simone's The Circle
    Gail Simone's Ends of the Earth
    Gail Simone's Rise of the Olympian
    Gail Simone's Warkiller
    Greg Rucka's Down to Earth
    Greg Rucka's Eye of the Gorgon
    Greg Rucka's Land of the Dead
    Greg Rucka's The Hiketaia
    Joe Kelly's JLA: Golden Perfect
    Chris Moeller's JLA: A League of One
    Phil Jiminez' Witch and the Warrior
    Eric Luke's Godwar

    They're all great, but I've highlighted my personal favorites.

    Gina Carano would be the perfect women to play wonder women in a live action movie :)

    The New 52 series is great. Start from issue 1. There's not really a good starting point other than that.

    And Gail Simone's run is pretty good as well

    I think I might just buy all of the trades for George Perez run.
