As the opening salvo of the three-part "Queens" arc that's getting underway, it serves more as an epilogue to an arc we had a few months ago more than anything else. It helps to get things squared away there so we can get Diana in the current Zambesi arc so that's all good for me in the end.

The sparser scenes are exactly what it needs as are the way the panels are laid out so that it has a certain starkness and coolness about it that mirrors Kara's grief – especially with how Nanjan shifts gears to color it. It's not a big and bold installment but it's a fantastic character installment, something this series pulls off really well. Read Full Review
