I tend to stick to digital formats when conducting my reviews, but I had to pick up a physical copy of this issue because I find myself going back to it to admire certain pages. Jones' designs are incredible, Hades and Persephone are amazing and the way Persephone cuts through Hades' hazy panels is fantastic. Read Full Review

I'm already a fan of Future State, but to have Jones at the helm of a new character is a huge bonus! Again, get in on the ground floor and let's hope DC plays the long ball with this comic! It has so much potential! Read Full Review

While Future State: Wonder Woman #2 completes the miniseries, Yara Flor will be sticking around as DC begins their Infinite Frontier era. And with everything we've seen from her character so far, she's sure to continue to grow and develop and make an excellent addition to the DC Universe.  Read Full Review

Honestly, this issue is a work of art"and it deserves your attention if it somehow doesn't have it already. Read Full Review

Future State: Wonder Woman #2 takes the promising start from issue #1 and sticks the landing with an extra backflip just to show off. The art is excellent, the emotional impact is turned up to 11, and this comic introducing a new character does exactly what it's supposed to do - leave me wanting more. Read Full Review

The excellent Future State: Wonder Woman #2 puts a unique and beautiful spin on Greek Myth, filled with humor, drama, and wit. Read Full Review

Overall, the story itself is what you'd expect. However, Jones does throw in a curveball at the end to keep fans on their toes, which I loved. More or less, this FUTURE STATE series was simply a canvas to showcase what's been missing from our current WONDER WOMAN. Sure, theyre both strong, courageous warriors. Yet, they both exude their heroism in a different light. Jolle was the perfect writer and artist to tell this tale and I highly recommend every DC COMICS fan take a look. Yaras bold, foolhardy, and absurdly reckless style will hit readers in the face, take their lunch money, make them smile, and all while providing a fresh new take on a classic concept. Pick this issue up, grab the trade, and keep your fingers crossed that we get more Yara Flor from Jolle Jones in the future. Let me know what you think, have a great week, and God bless!

Wonder Woman has been the standout series from the Future State titles. Not having to rely on a shared setting or environment was what made it unique. Everything from the setting, characters, creative team and mythology blends together with a unique harmony. Here is hoping this is picked up and continues as an ongoing series. Read Full Review

Jones delivers some beautiful art throughout this issue. Every page has something brilliant and detailed to marvel at. A great looking issue. Read Full Review

The story of Future State: Wonder Woman #2 is ultimately a tale of loss and how heroes persevere through those losses. Jones and Bellaire tell a visually stunning story that also builds Yara Flor's character and shows readers why she's a worthy successor to the Wonder Woman mantle. Read Full Review

It would have been nice for this arc to have an extra issue or two to really flesh things out, but this is still a fine read. Yara is a fantastic successor to Diana, and I look forward to seeing what's next for the character in her own ongoing series. Read Full Review

Conner and Palmiotti get to throw themselves a big epilogue party, with lots of gruesomeness, sexiness, funniness and heart-warmingness. It totally worked for me, as a previous fan of their Harley Quinn work. Read Full Review

When all is said and done, Future State: Wonder Woman #2 expands and elevates the worlds introduction to Yara Flor. While I dont know what DC has planned for the newest Wonder Woman, I hope she gets another opportunity to shine her light in the comics world. Especially if they can keep Jones on to helm her story, as she seems to have a great sense for where this character needs to go. Read Full Review

While the nature of this miniseries means that things are a little rushed, it delivers a powerful and emotional finale that sets up some great things to come. I'm looking forward to Yara's presence in the Infinite Frontier era and she could be a great foundation for a new generation of young DC icons. Read Full Review

FUTURE STATE: WONDER WOMAN #2 leaves a bittersweet taste in the reader's mouth due to its underwhelming story, but it still explores the medium beautifully through the art. Read Full Review

Future State: Wonder Woman #2 ended our first adventure with Yara Flor on a strong note. Joelle Jones did a fantastic job bringing Yara Flor and the world around her to life through both her writing and artwork. By the time we got to the final page all you are left with the feeling of wanting to get more adventures involving Yara Flor in the future. Hopefully, we learn that soon as Yara has a lot of potential by being further integrated into the greater Wonder Woman mythos. Read Full Review

Yara Flor's first solo adventure comes to an end in a way that begs for further stories. Read Full Review

A great conclusion to the character. Yara seems like the fun, energetic, character that I believe Jones was going for. Even though she may lose battles, she knows that she's surrounded by her family and friends and that's what counts. Highly recommend Future State WW to readers.

This is the best future state book by far. These two issues have floored me and have really gotten me excited to see Jones writing and drawing the ongoing. If the quality of that ongoing is as good as these issues, I'll be excited to read it. This is the only solid Future State book that I can firmly recommend, maybe Dark Detective as well.

My expectations were low after how disappointing Jones's Catwoman was, but actually this was great, even within the unpleasantly-compressed schedule of Future State. If any FS comic was going to get an ongoing, I'm really excited that it's this one.

Jones’ art is amazing, as usual. The story felt a bit rushed but interesting nevertheless. Yara seems like her own fun character, distinguished Enough from Diana.

What a great two-issue story. Great introduction to the character, great writing and art, which only left me wanting for more.

This comic should serve as a study model to many other Future State writers. Ladies and gentlemen, Joelle Jones did it - she created a perfect short story with a perfect clear idea behind, not merely using the very limited constraints of the event, but genuinely turning them to her own advantage. Without spoiling much, there's commentary on stories told by humans, and how Yara's journey wasn't even written yet, which serves both literal and metaphorical purpose. Jones winks to us, readers, without breaking the 4th wall directly.

Do I have any complaints? Well, the action progresses rapidly, which doesn't give us time to breathe in between jokes. Obvious reason is the sheer fact it's just a 2 issue micro series, so of course the story had to be told quickly. And truth be told, I don't mind it here, but I also wouldn't like to see such comedic intensity in regular long running series (which I certainly hope we get, and it's going to be as close to this short as possible).

Overall Wonder Woman is without a doubt one of the leading stars of Future State, its brightest highlights. Pick it up, it's great. more

Am I excited? Yes. Slightly confused (but in a good way)? Yes. Do I think Wonder Woman is the only good thing to come out of Future State? I mean, yeah kinda.

It's a well wrapped story that incorporates the right amount of mythology and originality. I wasn't bogged down with a depressing dystopian future, instead, I got a glimpse of something I can't wait to see more of.

I liked this issue more than the first, but it seemed a bit rushed.

After a first issue that was mostly a character showcase, Future State: Wonder Woman #2 features an engaging story with suspense and real emotional stakes. It's probably a bit premature to call Yara Flor DC's best new character of the year, but what we've seen so far makes Joelle Jones's work on the upcoming Wonder Girl series worth a definite look.

The second issue looks great still, but just confirms that there was only enough story an 8 page backup strip.

A surprisingly entertaining read with enough fan-service money shots to keep me turning the page , as the story was as ripe as Flor's age probably is. Still, by the time I closed the book , I was disappointed to find that there won't be another issue, tempting me to read the other Future state titles Flor is featured in - and that's where they got me. Though the story could have been told better on this week's issue of Venom, it was those money shots of Flor that has me eager to see her in her own solo title , and the way that she's drawn makes her a welcome addition to the DCU and to rep that tiara. Back in the days when I started masturbating was to the gorgeous art drawn by none other than Ian Churchill , whoever is on pencils here takes me back to that mindset in my younger days. For that reason alone, I am glad that a character was drawn this attractive , with no holds-barred in this cancel culture , and that that attraction was a gateway into a pleasant read where the pencils on the easel did more than the words typed into the script. Put Jones on the pencils again , but throw Azzarello a bone on the script for that Infinite Frontier, and the comics community will have a winner , while this two-parter will be remembered as a pre-cursor for what Jones can do with a sketchbook.

I immensely enjoyed the first Issue and the second one packs a punch as well. Joelle Jones keeps on delivering beautiful art, interesting layouts, and good character moments.

That being said, the story flows awkwardly throughout this Issue, and I can't quite put my finger on why. Sometimes just one more panel seems to be missing, the dialogue sounds clunky toward the end and some expressions, especially on Yara, do not seem to fit her words.

Despite that the story makes me want to read more, especially now that we have gotten an introduction to the other Amazons of the Amazonas.

Of the new characters Yara is the only refreshing one, I like her. The outcome I felt very quickly.

god who write this my dad?

nice art
