The Undoing is here. Superman couldn't stop it. Darkseid couldn't stop it. Only Diana Prince is left to hold back the being that could spell the complete disintegration of the cosmos. But will even she be powerful enough for the task?
Meanwhile, in another future, Nubia's attempts to stop the theft of ancient artifacts have led her to an even bigger conspiracy, and an even bigger foe. Circe is up to her old tricks, even after all these years-and she has an offer that Nubia will find hard to refuse.

But Why Tho? - Charles Hartford
Feb 16, 2021When all is said and done, Future State: Immortal Wonder Woman #2 delivers an emotional gut-punch in its opening story and follows it up with a piece that virtually anywhere else would be a strong tale in its own right. This book is a must-own for fans of Wonder Woman. Read Full Review

Feb 25, 2021Future State: Immortal Wonder Woman is indeed an epic tale worthy of the title. The voice of Diana is both powerful and graceful. It is my favorite of the Future State titles, everything about it is a siren's call. Nubia's story is just enough of a tease to make you want so much more of the character and I am looking forward to the future. I would also be remiss if I didn't mention the breathtaking cover by Jen Bartel, stunning artwork to say the least. Read Full Review

The Super Powered Fancast - Timala Elliott
Feb 16, 2021Cloonan and Conrad have carefully crafted a tale of unending hope amidst uncertainty. It is interesting to ponder what life is like for an immortal. And how ultimately losing everyone you love affects your psyche. I was profoundly sad for Diana, but also empowered by her strength of character. Read Full Review

Graphic Policy - Logan Dalton
Feb 16, 2021Future State: Immortal Wonder Woman #2 wraps up with two very different takes on the iconic DC Comics superhero. Becky Cloonan, Michael Conrad, and Jen Bartel tell an archetypal self-contained story of life and death, hope and despair, and finding purpose when there's nothing to live for starring Diana Prince. Plus it really captures the range of emotions one would feel before the inevitable end of the universe. In the second story, L.L. McKinney, Alitha Martinez, Mark Morales, and Emilio Lopez cram in lore, exposition, multiple villains, and one kick-ass fight scene to lay the foundation for future stories featuring Nubia. It's like a two-hour pilot screaming for a series order whereas the lead story is a beautiful elegy with career-best interior art from Jen Bartel, who masterfully depicts both the cosmic and human.

Comic Book Revolution - Kevin Lainez
Feb 21, 2021Future State: Immortal Wonder Woman #2 was a solid issue. The main story involving Diana Prince's final story as Wonder Woman was a mixed bag as Cloonan and Conrad did a good job putting over Diana's mentality at the end of time. But it was The Undoing being such a forgettable antagonist that dragged the main story's down. Luckily, we got Nubia's Future State back-up that lifted the quality content we got as her journey was Wonder Woman added further depth to the mythology in the franchise. Read Full Review

AIPT - Nathan Simmons
Feb 17, 2021Immortal Wonder Woman tells a beautiful end times story about Diana's never-ending perseverance, but it feels incomplete in many ways. Meanwhile, Nubia's half of the issue sets forth some fun threads for future stories, but gets a bit bogged down in exposition. Read Full Review

Newsarama - Matthew Sibley
Feb 16, 2021While the primary creative team of Future State: Immortal Wonder Woman #2 are sure to follow through on the conflict between Superman and Darkseid which their opening salvo set-up, the strongest material from all involved comes as a result of the scenes which see Diana coming to terms with the end.

Weird Science - Gabe Hernandez
Feb 16, 2021Future State: Immortal Wonder Woman #2, suffers from art ill-suited for action and storytelling that disregards sense. It would be best for everyone involved if this Future State entry was put back in the drawer it was pulled from. If there's any saving grace, the Nubia story has some potential going forward.

I actually really enjoyed the Diana Prince story this time around. Much better than part one. The Nubia story was okay, but a bit wordy.

Still good, though I found it not as good or enjoyable as #1 to me. Diana's story is still well written with beautiful art, but I also though the ending was anti-climactic and, frankly, boring. Nubia remains a very interesting character, one I hope to see more of.

6.0
Diana's story at the end of time looked phenomenal on paper. At least to me. I like stories that explore immortality and the "at the end of time" is such an ominous setting. What I want to say with that is, I wanted to like this story, hell, expected to like it, but Immortal Wonder Woman fails to explore the themes of immortality and the ceasing of existence in a meaningful way. While the art is beautiful and invokes a feeling of isolation, it appears almost blunt in certain situations. It's too static. Pose after pose instead of movement. The action in this book suffers a lot, but that is not the sole fault of the art. At times it really shows how mighty the lasso and Diana are, but then sth else is missing for example a warrior's sc more

6.0
While it may not be the best ending to the best comic, it serves its general purpose and offers us a beautiful, simple conclusion to this short, self contained tale. Certainly the last few pages let us see beyond otherwise pretty mediocre and somewhat stagnant story. There's not much drama and action here, despite the constant threat in form of the Undoing. Could have it been executed better? Knowing some of Becky Cloonan's brilliant work I'm sure that yes. But what's here isn't half bad. Hardly an essential book, even for Future State's very uneven, rough standards, but it's one I could recomment if you don't have anything else to read. All because of its ending.

I expected to see Death of the Endless make an appearance in this, I'm glad to have been wrong. It wasn't a bad ending by any means, but two issues were not enough to drive home the emotional impact I think this was aiming for.
