    This is a good stand-alone issue as the character resets for the next story arc. Like the best Wonder Woman stories, there is a lesson to be learned here for all involved about the use of power, even if she didn't have to actually intervene to resolve the issue. Read Full Review

    I really feel like the series is on an upswing and this issue is a great jumping on point for new readers. Read Full Review

    Wonder Woman #47 is a good entry with a creative team that knew exactly what they wanted to say. They hiccupa bit but for the most part we see themland some solid narrative blows that make the road to #50even more interesting than it already was. Read Full Review

    Interesting elements of Wonder Woman's now very complex connection to the Amazon's and Olympus are explored well, but the big conflict is rendered pointless with an underwhelming climax. Read Full Review

    Weird Science - Eric Shea Jan 19, 2016

    I like a story that has a twist, but when the twist is that nothing in the book matters at all and that it didn't even need to involve our hero........... well, that's a bit of a let down.  This issue does nothing for either our hero our her most popular villain and while it might add something small to a previous story or quite possibly a story we'll deal with in the future, it's not enough to really get excited about when it will probably get recapped later on anyway.  The only thing that this book has going for it is the art, which by normal means is really decent, but when your used to David Finch on this book, it's just not up to snuff to what we expect going in.

    Ultimately, this remains one of the most disappointing treatments of a perennially mistreated character and it's long-past time DC reevaluated the staff they've put on this book. Read Full Review

    "Wonder Woman" #47 is a big step forward for the series, and at an important time. With a cinematic version of the character set to debut in "Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice" in 2016, there needs to be a strong "Wonder Woman" comic. While we're not quite at that level just yet, the amount of improvement over Finch's first year on the title gives me hope we're on our way towards just that. Read Full Review
