Cassie and Donna's friends and families are being displaced from their homes and forced into internment camps. To save them, can Wonder Woman fight against the same people she once fought alongside?
MargueriteSauvages artwork is well-suited for the subject matter at hand. My onlycomplaint is that she sometimes renders the women almost as teenage girls. Dawnstarscosmic revelations on pages 8-9 seem especially made for the tween audience.Butperhaps, thats the tone Sauvage picks up from Bennetts dialogue. Read Full Review
The second half of this issue, drawn by DiChiara, moves away from the overarching theme, and moves towards a more typical Clayface story: did Clayface replace one of our heroines to gain access to their camp? It’s a tale of two different styles, but it strikes a good balance for this issue to make sure that it isn’t too heavy-handed. Read Full Review
By the end of the issue the action does pick back up and we whisked off to another fight. But really, by the time I got there, I was done. There are some fun things going on in this comic — it is all women and there's a strong possibility of some lesbian romance — but it is all just a bit too packaged for my taste, and that package doesn't include any meaningful racial/ethnic inclusivity or variety in the characters. If you're in the market for some skin-deep diversity, this may be for you, but for me, I'll go elsewhere. Read Full Review

Bombshells is still a series that I'm excited to see what it's going to do and how but this is proving to be a rough start to the series and the arc, making me wonder just how it must be for those coming in blind by not reading the other one. There are fun moments, scenes, and dialogue to be had here and it's setting up so many other things that I have to hope that it all comes together well as an eight-part arc that this one is being billed as. Right now, however, it's just kind of a weird mess that's not clicking for me anywhere near as well as what preceded it. Read Full Review
