Reviews

"Both novices and the initiated will find great fun in thisflawlessly streamlined remolding, and, in his inimitable style, Morrison offers a fiercer, stranger, moreepic, more textured, and, incidentally, more diverse interpretation. Visualized in Paquette's gleaming,dynamic, lush, and luscious imagery, this is the most complex, powerful, and confidently sexy WonderWoman on record." -BOOKLIST *STARRED* "With his signature panache and irresistible layers of metaphor, Morrison has treated [Wonder Woman] graciously. A provocative and highly contrasted view that we have not seen before." --NEWSARAMA "Morrison, Paquette, and Fairbairn have delivered a fascinating update of the character, bringing a true sense of wonder to her story." --A.V. CLUB/THE ONION "Yanick Paquette's art celebrates the clear confidence of Diana and the Amazons." --PASTE MAGAZINE "A triumphant blend of Golden Age concepts with modern themes... This book redefines an often misunderstood character." -PUBLISHERS WEEKLY "The combination of Diana'a adventurous spirit, curiosity and boundless compassion make this easily one of the most satisfying takes on the character in a long time." -IGN
