Diana’s gifts are slowly deserting her, but things aren’t as dire as they appear, and help is coming from a most unanticipated quarter! “Taketh Away” part 2 of 2.
Both of the stories are great, and the reader's preference will depend entirely on their taste. The fact of the matter is that with two really good stories, you really can't lose with purchasing Sensation Comics #6. Read Full Review
While this isn't the strongest issue in the young series, it's exactly what I love about this book in general. It's a nice little Wonder Woman story that reminds me why I feel in love with her in the first place. She may have lost her faith in this arc, but I never lost my faith in her. Read Full Review
With this weeks story wrapped up, SENSATION COMICS continues onto another arc. Tackling the bravery within Wonder Woman as she continues her quest to live and be accepted in mans world just the way she was born and protecting the world she has now grown so fond of. Read Full Review
The art team is the same as last time, with Marcus To on pencils, Andrew Dalhouse on colours, Deron Bennett on letters and Gene Ha on the cover. In this issue, there is far more use of unnecessary white-space since, especially early on, the panels aren't slotted together properly and don't match up to the screen-size either. Beyond that though, good work all around. A bit too much shine on the colours in some places, but that's really it for the negatives, since overall this is a fairly solid team, and if it gets time to do some regular comics, then I'm sure the results would be much, much better.

This arc has not worked for me, though I did enjoy the brief fight with Cheetah that happens here as it's always fun when the villain thinks they're finally gaining an advantage, even if they're defeated relatively easily. The storyline is one that puts Diana in a bad place and tests her through her faith in her gods and herself and a lot of it just left me feeling like it was wanting. It's understandable to some degree when you get the trick of it all, but it just goes in a kind of weirdly dark place and throws around a lot of keywords with ease that are like triggers that I'm not sure what to make of it. After the variety we've had in the first few issues, this is the arc thta made me pull back my interest a bit, though I'm still game for more as not every installment is going to be a winner. This one certainly wasn't. Read Full Review
There have been some really fun and inventive comics in "Sensation Comics Featuring Wonder Woman" over the past few months, but the danger of an anthology title is that occasionally some stories just don't quite hit their mark. In the case of "Sensation Comics Featuring Wonder Woman" #6, this print issue has the misfortune of collecting several chapters that all fell into the latter category. If you're interested in picking up a print edition of this digital-first title, this probably isn't the best entry point. Johnson and Snyder's art is really nice but, otherwise, it's ultimately forgettable. Read Full Review
This is a fascinating story. While the beginning is a bit slow, it gets up to a good pace, and is a good study in who Diana is as a person. The art ranges from really good to decent, but doesn't take away from the issue that much. The biggest problem with this book is the ending, feeling like a deus ex machina. Also, we're never really introduced to who the villain is, the comic preferring to assume we know enough of Diana's history to know who this is. Oops. But overall, this month's* Sensation Comics features good stories from beginning to end. A fun read that comes highly recommended.
*Sensation Comics is released digitally every week, and in physical form every month.
