Supergirl and Stargirl are willing to promote patriotic propaganda-until they learn a dark secret.
This installment brings on board Bilquis Evely to handle the art and she does a really good job here with it in bringing these two to life in their propaganda style uniforms. The action is well handled, the layouts solid and the overall feel definitely clicks within the series general tone. I was a bit dismayed at times with the number of splash pages for it, but it's also something that's being done for the propaganda purposes so I completely get it. She does fill out those areas with some good background elements that makes it worth poring over some, though you do still feel like you fly through this installment just a touch quicker than some of the others. I'm definitely glad we're in the combat phase and am quite curious to see what's next to come from the book. Read Full Review

I'm still hoping we'll circle back to that as there are characters we haven't seen for a while, but in the meantime, it's always great to watch Wonder Woman kicking butt and taking names!
