The secrets behind Queen Hippolyta's death and the start of the world war are revealed. And when Diana finds out about an unholy alliance between her ally and her enemy, how does it affect the war?
While the book has some issues in that it doesn't stand on its own as well as it should, it's the nature of the beast at this point because of how it has to connect things together with its brother book in Emperor Aquaman as well as delving into the core Flashpoint series itself. I liked this series a lot overall and the first two issues had a lot going for it, but the natural and expected falling off with the third weakens it overall. Bringing Diana to understanding is a key part of things but we also see her realization about how she's been had and that she still has to do her proper duty as an Amazon. And even worse, she has to see the truth about Arthur when they end up fighting but she's caused enough damage to him in killing Mera that nothing can turn him back. The two have simply gone too far to turn back and this issue has that sense of dread and inevitability. Read Full Review
The scenes of destruction are probably the high point (which I realize even as I type is a very unusual thing to say). Not a bad book, but considering how it flows into last week's issue, it doesn't really feel like a satisfying ending to the miniseries. Read Full Review
With a plot completely subservient to another title altogether, it's no wonder this series makes an unsatisfying, bland, largely disengaging finish. Read Full Review
It hasn't exactly been DC's proudest moment. Here's hoping that final issue and the new, rebooted version of the DC Universe redeems this mess. Read Full Review
Having now seen how this series concludes, I can't rightfully recommend Wonder Woman and the Furies. In the end, this series is nothing more than a sloppily-plotted compendium to Flashpoint. And while the art by Agustin Padilla isn't bad, it's also nothing that will make you want to throw down your hard-earned dollars for a storyline that goes nowhere on its own. Read Full Review
