Honestly, I would recommend this to people who haven't watched the show over fans. The book is self-contained and gives the readers the information one would need in order to understand context. For people who have watched this show, the dump of exposition is incredibly tedious. Most of the characters from the show don't make an appearance which will more than likely irritate fans but people who didn't like the show may find this more bearable because the CW element is taken out entirely. Personally, I enjoyed this book. It features what I enjoy about the show and this character in a fun story with great art. I ultimately recommend it to fans of the character Supergirl and people who want a fun read. |

The art is good despite the artistic clash and I like a lot of the ideas behind the story. However, those ideas are too obvious and spelt out for my taste. It doesn't really continue the story to a place I was interested in and I don't like the characters this issue chooses to focus on. Overall, I would recommend skipping this issue. It's got some merit but is a disappointing experience overall. |

The issue is overall enjoyable. I quite like Gates' dialogue and I enjoy what he does with the theme of secrecy in superhero material for Kara's character. The art is also great. The issue is unfortunately weighed down by some exposition and uninteresting action but I still recommend checking this issue out. It is a fun read. |

Gates and the various artists are knocking it out of the park. This could have easily been a cheap tie in to the show that was boring and only made to make a quick buck off the success of the show. But the creative team gives it their all in a story that is both fun and thought provoking. It's one of the best DC books right now which is saying a lot considering how good of a place DC is in right now. I don't just recommend this to fans of the show or fans of Supergirl as a character even though those people will absolutely adore this. I recommend this, and the entire series so far, to anyone that just likes good stories. |

This issue is a mixed bag. I am interested in the premise and where it could go. But I'm not that invested in the protagonist yet. That combined with the art made this issue a bit of a tough read. There's potential with this but I don't think it's quite there yet. |

I did not enjoy this issue that much. Focusing on the twisted relationship between Richard and Jennifer helps because they're a little interesting. But the art doesn't appeal to me at all. And I have no investment in Sheila at all. The series feels padded out and dull. |

This is probably the best issue so far but I'm still not loving it. The increased focus on Jennifer is captivating. She gets more interesting every time we learn something new about her. She's a great villain who knows the evil of her actions and does them anyway. But there's no one to roof for. The villains are interesting but horrifically racist while the heroes are boring one note jackasses. Combined with the art that I don't love, this issue loses a lot of potential. |

I really didn't like this issue. It's a somewhat fitting end to this disappointing series. There are a lot of great ideas here. I was interested in some of the characters dynamics and relationships. But not enough was done with any of it. This conclusion feels rushed and abrupt. It's not satisfying in any way. It's not a happy ending but it doesn't have the punch of a tragic or even bitter sweet ending. It just ends without making any kind of real impact. |

This is a good issue. The art is great and I think it's a solid conclusion to the story. However, it is mainly action so I think it would read better as part of a trade or just back to back with the previous two issues. It's not a stand-alone issue that one can enjoy on its own. I would recommend waiting for the trade on this one. |

This is a fantastic issue. Memory loss is a phenomenon that is truly scary. People freak out when they can't find their keys; imagine not being able to remember key decisions that you have made in your life. She has no control over her life. It is a terrifying situation because we rely so much on our memories even though they're not reliable all of the time. It's violating and creates a sympathetic situation for Barbara since her mind is her superpower. Additionally, adding Black Canary to the mix is always welcome. I love the friendship these two have and the best moments of the book come from them. On top of that is incredible artwork from Tarr with wonderful colors by Lapointe and Loughridge. My only issue, as stated above, is how obvious Greg is as the villain. Despite that, this is a great read and you should definitely check it out. |

This is an unsettling story in the best way possible. The Fugue's motivation and plan is insanely creepy and is able to bring Barbara to her weakest point. In addition, there is wonderful art and colors throughout. Some of the science feels wonky but it's a great read besides that. I definitely recommend picking this issue up. |

Overall, this is a disappointing finale. I've truly loved this series and this team so I'm sad to see it end; I just wish that the book reflected those emotions. The dialogue is still fun and the action is cool but the heart this team usually conveys so well, for some reason, doesn't come through for me. It's not terrible or even bad; I'm just ambivalent towards it which is disappointing. I would recommend waiting for the trade on this one. |

This is a wonderful issue. Babs is as lovable as ever if not more so, the story is interesting and unique and the art and colors are spectacular. I highly recommend this issue especially for kids. If you have kids that have an interest in comics or you want to introduce them, this series is a wonderful place to start. It's colorful, fun and might be a little educational for kids. |

Ultimately, I just wish this issue stood on its own a bit more. I tend to want issues of a comic to be enjoyable on their own and I don't think this one quite accomplishes that. It does have wonderful art and Hope Larson is still writing Babs terrifically. The characterization is spot on with nice little flourishes. I recommend waiting for the trade on this issue. |

This is a strong issue. The art is great throughout and a lot of fun to look at. Larson presents interesting motivations for the villains and ideas about the education system both of which work very well. As usual, Larson characterizes Babs very well. She is fun and upbeat but has her limits and can be tough. I recommend checking this issue out; it's a fun read. |

This is a great issue. I wish we didn't save this format for just the annuals; I like issues that have more than one story. It's a lot of fun and shows a variety of different talent. I also like that we get essentially a stand-alone story with Ayala's section. That's also too uncommon in modern comics. The writing in both stories is top notch with wonderful dialogue and interesting plots. I want to see a Larson Supergirl story now really badly and there should clearly be a Batgirl/Supergirl team up series because this was inspired. The art from both teams is fantastic with different and unique styles that both work really well. |

Batman '66 Meets The Man From U.N.C.L.E. #3
Feb 13, 2016 |
Honestly, I do not have a lot to say about this issue. I'm not a fan of the art. While the layouts are creative and fun, the facial expressions always look strange to me. No one really looks like a person and I don't think the style matches either show. The crossover is still fun but this particular issue does not do much for me. However, the ending is amazing and I'm incredibly excited for the next issue. |

This is an excellent issue. The concept is just too cool and something DC fans have always wanted to see. Comic book fans love crossovers and have always imagined how cool it could have been if these shows had somehow crossed. It's awesome to retroactively put them in the same continuity. The art is great and there is a major surprise for DC fans. |

I loved Snyder's earlier works on Batman but both “Endgame” and “Superheavy” were disappointments to me. They're unnecessarily long without the meat to justify it. This conclusion is wonderful to look at thanks to the art team but it's a little difficult to read; I had a hard time getting invested in the story itself. I recommend waiting for the trade on this one mainly for the art. |

While it has beautiful moments, this book is dull overall. The villains just aren't interesting. They're given little characterization or development and pose no threat to our heroes. They come across as cannon fodder which is disappointing because the art is great and the giant could be a terrific threat. I want to say that it's worth buying the issue for the ending but ultimately, I think it's best to wait for trade on this one. |

Batman: Arkham Knight: Batgirl & Harley Quinn Special #1
Feb 13, 2016 |
I love this issue. Creating a parallel between Batgirl and Harley Quinn is actually interesting. I never thought about it before but they are really similar people. They're inspired by a larger than life character to fight for what they believe in whether it's helping people or love. Where they differ is that Barbara is able define to herself outside of Batman while Harley becomes lost in the Joker. The art is solid with cool action with various villains. I highly recommend buying this issue especially if you're a fan of these games. |

If you're someone who likes a lot of dialogue and sound effects in comics, you might not like this. A good portion of the book relies on the art which I think is fantastic. Everything you need is given to you through action, facial expressions and page layout. It is really incredible. Unfortunately, this means there is a lot of dialogue at the beginning and the end of the issue which is somewhat tedious. There are rumors that this book might get cancelled in a couple of months but I really hope not because this is always one of the books I look forward to the most. |

This is a pretty solid issue. Jarrell's art combined with Loughridge's colors are striking and engaging; it gives the issue a lot of life. Teaming up Black Canary with Vixen was a great surprise that led to a lot of fun action. I hope Vixen becomes a recurring character in the book. Fletcher also does a great job of starting at a place of mystery and then explaining instead of flashing back. This is a really fun issue and a good starting point so I recommend picking this up. |

The conclusion to this story is satisfying. I like the twist and everything wraps up in a believable way. It's not mind blowing or action packed but it is cool and immensely helped by the art. The backup stories take it down a bit for me. The Justice League one is cute but the I think the first one is incredibly tedious. Overall, this is a good issue and I recommend picking it up. |

Deathstroke (2014) #14
Feb 5, 2016 |
There honestly isn't much to say about this issue. Like the last story with the Suicide Squad, this feel like it is being dragged out way too long with too much mindless action. Kirkham's art is fantastically detailed as always and makes the action a little more fun but this really isn't that engaging. It may have been more interesting if Slade had fought Mercy more instead of the robot. With that, we could have had some more dynamic martial arts but every fight is just a beat down with the losing side never having a chance. It's not terrible but I think it would better to wait for the trade. |

Ultimately, I find this issue to be dull. The art is great and I am intrigued by Rose's motivations; I want to know what is going on with her. However, like the last several issues, this story is too padded. It's more concerned with Deathstroke fighting than telling a story. Action is fine but it gets tiresome after awhile. I recommend skipping this issue. |

If you read the sentence, “Doomed decapitates Mother Herd with a boat,” and weren't interested in reading this, Doomed #6 probably isn't the book for you. While I normally don't enjoy issues that are mainly action, Lobdell does a good job of using the action to develop Reiser as a character. Combined with great artwork, this is a solid read. There are a couple of missteps in my opinion but they're easy to overlook in this case. |

Besides the tone, my other big complaint is that there are several different stories going on at once that don't relate to each other. Maybe the plots will connect later but it feels a little tedious now. They could structure it differently and make it more of an anthology book instead of cutting back and forth between these different tales. It might be a little more fun. As is, the art is nice but the issue itself is dull. There's too much going on that doesn't connect and it's just not any fun. I am curious about the Amazonian plot so I am hoping that the series will pick up and these stories can come together. |

It's not the most engaging read and I still think the tone is wrong but there are elements of this issue that work quite well. However, I would recommend that you wait for trade to read this story. |

I honestly cannot say if fans of these cartoons will like this because I am unfamiliar with the source material. However, it does feel reminiscent of the 1960s in tone and plot. If you like Parker's Batman '66, you will probably like this. It has a very similar vibe. I do think it is appealing to new readers. It's a good enough start to a story that I am interested to know more and continue despite my unfamiliarity with these characters. I recommend picking this issue up. |

I love the issue. Emiko being back makes me really happy. It's cool to have a Red Arrow with Green Arrow and Black Canary again and it makes perfect sense for it to be Emi. I like the police chief and that he is not easily manipulated by what has happened in the previous issues. He's smarter than that and able to recognize that Green Arrow is trying to help. The art is great with a nice intense action scene. If you're reading just for the Green Arrow/Black Canary dynamic, you might be disappointed because she takes a back seat. I am okay with that because I like Emiko. I highly recommend reading this issue. |

This is an okay issue. There's certainly nothing technically wrong with it. The art is wonderful and there is some solid writing. Benjamin Percy is very creative with how he uses the villains and their actions. Heis clearly having fun with that and creates a nice sense of scale. This issue feels a lot bigger than the previous ones in this run. I just don't think it's all that interesting. Maybe if Oliver had been talking to someone instead of narrating I would have cared about that more but it does nothing for me as it is. This issue could easily read well in context with the trade but I don't think it works on its own. I recommend waiting for the trade on this one. |

However, the exposition-heavy dialogue bothers me. Percy does have a sense of humor about it; he seems to be self aware but that doesn't help me that much. It feels forced and unnatural. Overall, this is a strong issue and I do recommend reading it. |

This is a solid issue; I think that the villains really come into their own in this one. The threat feels real, personal and legitimate. My favorite character is featured heavily which makes me happy. The art is amazing and the story is heading somewhere really interesting. I highly recommend reading this issue. |

This is an okay issue. There's a lot of solid material. The art is great and the book has a somber tone that fits the aftermath well. I like certain story elements and what Percy is setting up but it's hard to get too invested without context. However, I do think this is a good issue for new readers. If you haven't been reading Green Arrow but are interested, this is a great issue to start and I highly recommend reading it because it's a good place to jump on. However, if you have been reading, it feels a little slow on it's own and I would recommend waiting for the trade. |

The Black Canary/Red Arrow team up promises to be a lot of fun and I am excited for that. The art is fantastic and filled with wonderful moments. There are some character choices that I think are a little off but they're not huge problems. I recommend reading the issue. |

This is a solid issue. I have my complaints but the issue still works for the most part. Superman is fun and enjoyable and there is some amazing art throughout. The dialogue between Oliver and Lex works and is an interesting dynamic, and the Ninth Circle's plan for Metropolis is super creepy. I like that Percy works in this relevant issue to the story that grounds it a little but also makes it more unnerving because it's such a real thing. I recommend reading the issue. |

This is an okay issue. There's nothing inherently wrong with it. It's well drawn and well written. Some of the action is cool and the imagery is effectively creepy. But it's pointless; there is no reason to read this. A minor detail is discovered but you don't need to read this to know that. It can, and probably will be, summed up in a line of dialogue in the next issue of Metal. It's a harmless tie in. It might be worth checking out for Ferreyra's art but that's the only appeal of this issue. |

This is a great issue. Ferreyra knocks it out of the park every time he works on the book. The issue focuses on the characters and the emotions surrounding the situation both of which are handled exceptionally well by Percy. The action is also really cool; Shado is the ultimate badass. It's one of the best issues of the current run which is actually saying a lot considering how strong this book has been. |

This is a fun issue. It's fairly over the top which works in its favor. Ollie is so outmatched that it's actually fairly comedic when he succeeds. I think Scott is aware of this and the intention was to create a fairly outlandish story. It absolutely works; I had a good time with this. The art's great too so definitely check this one out. |

This is a solid issue. The script is great; I think the Benson sisters knock it out of the park. The first part of the story immediately allows us to sympathize with Ollie due to how he's handling his renewed relationship with Roy and that's combined with powerful social commentary and a scary new villain. I'm genuinely excited about where this book is going. The art takes some of my personal enjoyment down because, stylistically, it doesn't do anything for me. But it's still a really good issue and worth checking out. |

For a final issue, this is somewhat underwhelming. Obviously Green Arrow isn't going away forever but this issue feels more like a season finale as opposed to a series finale. It leaves major cliffhangers instead of resolving any kind of mystery. The consequences of Ollie's decision on his relationship with Dinah is really engaging and I like those scenes a lot. I do appreciate that the final issue feels as personal and intimate as this does. |

This issue is solid. It's worth checking out for the art and it's a decent introduction for the new creative team. Despite being a tie-in, the issue managed to be enjoyable and fun. However, it feels like an incomplete story because it is. To get the full picture, one must read “No Justice.” And I don't think someone should have to buy a Justice League book to fully understand what's happening in an issue of Green Arrow especially with the price of comics these days. |

This book left me feeling great. I was just excited about everything and that is the best feeling to have with comics and entertainment in general. It's everything I could have wanted and more. The plot, the characterizations and the art all just sing to me. I cannot wait to see what Percy has up his sleeve because he seems just as excited about this book as I am if not more so. While I thought his run on Green Arrow before this issue was okay, it really needed a spark of life and it has it in spades now. If you have felt disappointed by the Green Arrow comics or the television show Arrow lately, this will absolutely fill that void. I highly recommend picking this issue up because it is stellar. |

I'm not sure who this issue is for. It tries to make the material a little darker in order to appeal to older fans of the show. But it also tries to appeal to children in other scenes. There's a tonal dissonance that bothered me throughout. There's also not enough characterization for my taste right now. Adam gets some nice moments but the Thundercats are fairly generic. Ultimately, I just did not enjoy this issue. It's not terrible but I don't recommend it. |

This doesn't quite work for me. The beginning is promising. The other dimension is cool and the scenes there are engaging and contain strong dialogue. But the rest of the story is a little disappointing; it doesn't live up to the exciting cliffhanger at the end of the last issue. And everything just happens too easily for Constantine because it's the last issue of the story. I usually want comic stories to be shorter but I think this could have used another issue to really raise the stakes. |

Heroes In Crisis #5
Feb 3, 2019 |
Mostly what kills this issue for me is tone. The mystery finally took an interesting turn and the art is enjoyable. But the issue feels like it's all over the place and I don't think it works. The comedy doesn't make me laugh and intrudes on the heavier subject matter which, while interesting, feels like a backdrop as opposed to a focal point. |

On its own, this is a great issue. This is a wonderful script. King is hyper focused on the characters' psychology, good and bad. The work he does with Wally and Harley is really impressive. And combined with Gerads' art, I really enjoyed this. However, in the context of this series, it feels too little too late. Structurally, it kills the momentum of the mystery while also telling a much more captivating story than what the main plot of this is supposed to be. |

This issue borders somewhere between okay and bad. It has its moments. I had fun with Batgirl and there are some good jokes. But I am not invested in the plot at all and even if I was, it is moving at a snail's pace. The art is good but it's not enough for me. |

VerdictI didn't like this issue. It feels a little mean spirited but not in a way that's interesting. Wally's reveal makes this series a lot more generic than it I thought it was. The story is not over so it could go somewhere interesting but this issue on its own doesn't work for me. The art is nice though. |

This issue is fine. I like the intentions and the thematic ideas are great. I love what this story has to say about trauma and how King applies that to super heroes. But the issue doesn't have much beyond these ideas. This story doesn't have much to offer in terms of plot or even character development. I'm not sure why Batgirl is even in this or why the Trinity was such a big part of the early issues only to disappear from the narrative. The story comes from a good place and that is worth something even if I didn't find it that engaging to read. |

This is a really fun book. It's not Earth shattering or groundbreaking but it is a good time. Hitch creates a wonderfully tense situation that is escalated by mystery with support from some really great art. I definitely recommend picking this issue up. It's a blast. |

That is weirdly rare for them these days. The art is also excellent which also adds to the tension and engagement. I highly recommend checking this issue out. |

This issue is very well-written. The personality of the characters really shines through but Bryan Hitch knows how to balance the characters. This issue is heavy on Jess, Barry and Clark but leave hints and clues as to where the other characters are going. The art is really great as well and I enjoyed getting a story on a smaller scale. It's a fun issue and I recommend it. |

This is highly enjoyable. It feels like a natural counterpoint to the Power Rangers comics at Boom with great writing and art. If you're more interested in the Justice League than the Power Rangers, you might be disappointed because only four of the members show up and it's rather brief except for Batman. I am okay with that because I love this version of the Power Rangers and those books have been some of my favorite reads recently. I imagine the League will show up more in future issues but this is definitely Ranger-centric. I still don't think the fight happens naturally but if I can accept it in The Avengers film for the sake of fun, I can accept it here. |

I'm not in love with this issue. I feel like the story has stopped. I'm not sure if this was a mandate by DC or if Rucka just wanted to include this farewell to Jon in Lois' book. And it's fine; I think a lot of that is sweet. But it doesn't do much for the plot of this story. The book went a weird detour. The Question stuff could end up grabbing me but I'm somewhat indifferent to it right now. I'm still excited about this book and the art is great but I didn't enjoy this issue. |

This is a great issue. Lois losing her father is heartbreaking; all of the emotion lands. I like this tragic sense of loss; Lois can't make amends until his eventual resurrection because it was a comic book death after all. But that makes the issue even more impressive; I know this isn't permanent and it still managed to resonate. The art is great as well. I don't know well this fits into the overall story but it's a wonderful stand alone piece. |

New Suicide Squad #16
Jan 20, 2016 |
The only interesting thing in this issue is the conversation at the end. Deadshot is able to make good points and obviously hits a nerve. People often cannot help who they are. We can be trapped by our personalities, disabilities or simple choices and the various members of the Squad are all trapped in one form or another including Waller. However, other than that, this comic is boring. Sage isn't much of a threat and there just aren't any stakes. I'm not really invested in either side. Frankly, it might have been more interesting if Sage succeeded and Waller was disgraced and lost her power. That would be a change of pace but this story just re-establishes the traditional set up instead of doing something new and interesting. Overall, this is a disappointing finale. |

This issue feels like padding which is strange considering it's the first issue. The ending is the first point in which an actual plot point happens; the rest of the issue is just establishing the characters and the world. Maleev's art does that well but the dialogue makes this issue drag and I honestly know very little about any of these characters. I understand wanting to take an issue to set up the people involved; that seems like a good idea but it's ineffective here and the issue ends up being very dull. |

In the context of these five issues, she seems to be rebelling for the sake of it but I have no idea what for other than some generic speeches. Plot wise, it's slow and meandering; there's nothing driving this story. It all feels empty and dull. However, the issue does win points for a very sweet tribute to Stan Lee and I loved that very much. |

While Starfire is still loveable, the story is dull. It's uninspired and doesn't take advantage of potentially cool ideas. I wanted to know more about this doctor and he's carded aside for a useless bounty hunter. The issue is just disappointing. |

This issue is fun. Starfire is getting more playful and there a lot of good exchanges with good dialogue. The art is great and I still like the supporting cast. However, the plot isn't that engaging and I'm not sure if we really needed to bring Grayson into this. Other than that, this is a good read. |

This issue is consistent with the first seven with it's colorful art and fun dialogue. Starfire is still incredibly funny especially as she now knows more about Earth and attempts to make references but still doesn't understands things such as ASAP. She continues to be highly enjoyable. However, the main plot isn't that exciting and I don't understand the need for heterosexual women to comment on Starfire's attractiveness. It's an okay issue but it's the most problematic of the eight. |

This is a very good issue. Most of it focuses on the characters just talking to each other like most of the series which is still engaging. This is a great set of characters that I love more with each issue. I am sad that these characters probably won't survive the Rebirth but at least we have them here. Charretier makes a great replacement on the art and we get to see Syl'Khee. I recommend picking this issue up; it's definitely worth a read. |

Unfortunately, I think this is easily the worst issue of the series. There are good aspects but I hated a lot of it. There's a lot of unnecessary plot elements that I found tedious, Neala-Tok is never an interesting or intimidating villain and it just seems tonally confused in places. As much as I hate to say it because I have loved this series, I recommend skipping this issue. |

This is a great finale to a great series. I am going to seriously miss this book because it was a highlight of my pull list and one of the best DC projects right now. However, I don't think I can recommend the issue to people who haven't been reading the series simply because I don't know if those people would care about this particular one. It's a farewell and thank you to the fans. I do recommend that, if you haven't read this series, to go and buy the issues or the trade collections because it is worth every cent. Fans of this series and character should find a lot of enjoyment in this issue. I know I did. |

While there are some thingsthat I like about this issue, there is a lot I don't like about it. The main thing that bothers me is the art. Some of it works well but the parts that don't really bug me and take me out of the story. Said story is pretty good and there's solid characterization for Kara as always. The tone and mood work well and there are some wonderful panels. But the panels that bother me take a lot out of this story and stop my enjoyment. I don't recommend reading this issue. |

There's a simplicity to it in how it examines young people trying to deal with their internal confusion especially in a society that functions in particular way. What happens when that system doesn't recognize you? It's very effective. I highly recommend this issue. |

This is a solid issue. As a follow up to Rucka's run, there are loose ends that were tied up in between the stories, which is disappointing, but the story works so far on it's own. There's a lot going on with Diana that I really like. I genuinely feel like depression is a factor in what's going on with her and that's interesting. The action is cool and is paired with some great art. I recommend reading the issue. |

This is an okay issue. The art is great which especially helps the big action scene. I like some of the ideas and I'm still interested in the story. But the issue feels a little padded to me; not enough happens. Sometimes this happens when stories are trying to fill up a trade so they have to be stretched to six parts, even if it's unnecessary. |

What hurts this issue is I don't find Jason particularly compelling yet which kills a lot of the fun since he's such a big part of this issue but we'll see where Robinson takes it.

This is an okay issue. It looks amazing and is worth buying for the art alone. I think the conclusion is a little disappointing. I thought Vanessa was potentially great and the story became a little generic for me. Wasting time on a Darkseid subplot didn't help either.

I did not enjoy this issue. It's very dull; I feel like the story is padded. But it's the first issue of a new arc so I'm not sure why it already feels that way. The issue kind of wastes time on seemingly nothing. It's hard to tell without if some of these elements work their way into this new story later. But this issue is not engaging as its own piece. |

This is an okay issue. The art is good especially during the action scenes. Merino does a lot of cool stuff when Diana takes Grail on. That action scene is a lot of fun and, along with the art, makes the issue worth reading. Personally, I don't find this story interesting. It's not horrible but Darkseid feels dull and generic and I still don't really care about Jason. Despite that, the issue is still enjoyable and fun to read. |

This issue is fine for the most part. There is a compelling weight to Aphrodite's death that comes from both solid writing and great art. However, the issue does kind of lose me towards the end. Diana being unable to fight due to Aphrodite's death even though she was just able to fight literally a minute ago was weird. It's an over-simplification of her powers and feels anti-climatic. |

I can't see Diana's hardship the way I would like to and that takes a lot of the power away. I'm told she looks like hell but she looks fine. Another part of it is that I'm still not sure about the death of love taking away Diana's powers. That threw me off at the end of the last issue and I'm still unsure about that choice. The pacing is weird and I think the issue is dull. |

She's dumb, easily manipulated and ineffective. Obviously, there needs to be a great challenge for a character like Wonder Woman. But she's practically inept and it kills a lot of the fun for me. At this point, I just want this story to end already. |

Wonder Woman (2016) Annual #3
Nov 4, 2019 |
This is a fun and compelling issue until the ending. When it's just a story about Diana and this A.R.G.U.S. agent she saved as a kid trying to protect the citizens of Gorilla City, it's great. The writing is solid and it's a lot of fun. The ending and the nature of this being a tie in takes it down for me. It's still enjoyable for the most part but DC needs to relax on these big event stories. |

Overall, I was never all that invested in this issue. It's fine; Orlando characterizes Wonder Woman well and the art is good. For me, it just never connected and I found it to be a little boring. |

This is a great start. The art is incredible throughout with several stand out moments of Diana in particular. Simone's introduction to this story is immediately interesting and fun and I cannot wait to see where she takes it next. I highly recommend reading this issue. |

This is a great issue. The art is gorgeous with expressive characters and dynamic action. The title characters are a lot of fun and engaging whether they're talking or kicking ass. It's a fun book and I highly recommend reading it. |

This is a great issue. I love where Simone takes the story with the Corvidae. The art is gorgeous and the title characters fight sharks; that's just cool. I highly recommend reading this issue. |

This is a solid issue. The art is great with expressive characters and solid colors. There is a lot of fun dialogue between the characters and I like that Simone has taken the time to let the characters just talk. My only complaint is some of Conan's dialogue is obnoxious in terms of how he treats Diana but it doesn't kill the issue. It's an enjoyable read with fun characters and cool art. |

This is a solid issue. The Corvidae effectively raise the stakes, allowing the story to go in a completely different direction than what I expected. The art is great and there is cool action. The story ends in an interesting place and I'm excited to see how Simone wraps the story up. |

This is a solid issue. Most of it focuses on action which allows the three artists to take over which works in the issue's favor. They're a great team and the book is gorgeous. Simone's dialogue and narration give the issue a lot of personality and energy. I think the story ends rather abruptly and the aftermath doesn't quite play for me either. But the issue is fun and worth checking out. |

Overall, I think this a good story. Morrison has a good grasp on Diana as a character and Paquettes art with Fairbairns colors are truly excellent. If youre looking for a truly new take on the character, you might be disappointed. Morrison sticks to the main ideas and concepts with new details here and there. Most of it works really well but a few things dont. I definitely recommend this book. Its an engaging read that is fun and quick with some interesting ideas. |

This is a very disappointing issue to me. While Rucka's ideas are brilliant and the art is great, this is a boring read. It is certainly not terrible but there isn't a lot in the story or Diana as a character that is engaging while reading. I had some fun thinking about the story and what it could mean but when I try to read it again, I'm still bored. I honestly don't recommend checking this issue out. Hopefully, it gets better from here. |

This is a fun and unique take on Diana's story. Anderson wrote a character driven and charming story with some nice art. I can see people being turned off by the changes to some of the traditional story beats but I enjoyed the fresh take. |
