When Queen Bee mind controls the Amazons of Themyscira to aid her in a plot to have women take over the world, Diana finds herself potentially in over her head with a deadly opponent who’s caught her off guard. Wonder Woman must rely on her strength and wits to take down Queen Bee, her “squad” of villains, and an army of Amazon drones!
It's nice to see Wonder Woman in over her head as much as she is at the end of the issue. Still, the danger of introducing this many characters will come when she's forced to confront all of the villainsnearly all of her rogues' gallery at once next issue. It's fascinating to see them all lined-up like they are in issue 11, but it's really difficult to do justice to all of them if they're all crammed together in a single space like they are here.

Sina Grace's script keeps things moving well and deals with a couple of fun spots along the way, from the London cops to the reveal of the larger group assembled here. It's a straightforward story that works well without a lot of clutter in the way to lessen the impact or smoothness of it. That's aided well by Pelletier and Rapmund's artwork that gives it a good sense of urgency where it's needed and with its energy it connects well. The last couple of pages definitely work the best in showing off what's to come and I'm looking forward to seeing just how much Diana has to face here in order to save the day. Read Full Review
#11 and #12 are a two-part story once more. While the dialogue suffers at times because of over exposition, the overall story makes up for it quite well. Pelletier’s art isn’t quite to my tastes, but it truly shines once #12 kicks off a couple of fights.
Not the strongest story of this anthology, but not bad either. I wish this could have been a true arc, where moments could have been fleshed out.
Overall, it’s a nice showcase for various Wonder Woman villains. Maybe a modern Villainy Inc., is finally in reach.
