Jones has a good handle on the direction of Wonder Girl and whether from the writing or artist side. Either way, Wonder Girl is an easy recommendation for readers seeking a magical escape. Read Full Review

Both Jones and Melo deliver some stunning art throughout this issue. I fell in love with the style and how the art perfectly captures the mood of the story. There are some truly beautiful character moments throughout this issue and the art is gorgeous. Read Full Review

This title still has quite a bit of potential " especially with Jones' doing double-duty " but things need to pick up a bit on the latter half of this series. Read Full Review

This is a chaotic book that raises a lot of questions, but it's still coming together as a fairly compelling narrative. Read Full Review

While Wonder Girl #3 doesn't have the same impact as either of the first two issues, it has some beautiful art by Jones and Melo. It does move the story forward enough while setting up what comes next with the surprise on the final page. It may be a bit uneven in this, but it seems like it has more to do with the outstanding quality of Wonder Girl #1 and Wonder Girl #2. This is far from an indictment as the overall story is still as exciting and engaging. Read Full Review

Wonder Girl #3 makes steady progress for Yara Flor as she reaches the next point in her adventure. The delays to get to that point do hold this issue back from hitting the same highs of the first two issues. That said, the developments around Cassie Sandsmark and Artemis help lift the overall story so we continue to be invested in the Brazilian Amazons we have been introduced to. Read Full Review

Wonder Girl #3 is on the downslide. Two artists with radically different styles make this issue visually offputting, and the story seems to be throwing random happenings out of nowhere to get the plot to travel a short distance from A to B. We get no information about why Yara's arrival is a global threat, and having no information about the main character or the central plot is not a good place to be on issue #3. Read Full Review

Despite the issues the book is still solid and stunning, it's just doesn't quite meet the high bar of issues #1 and #2, but hopefully issue #4 gets things back to normal. Read Full Review

I'm just not enjoying the rushed, helter skelter storytelling, and this issue especially feels all over the place with characters, concepts and weirdness. Read Full Review

Well that's going to leave quite the impression. It's hard not to get attached to the character of Yara; ever so the heroic figure and the cover makes her look twice as desirable. But I will admit it's odd to see Artemis and Cassie's interactions with those Themyscrian amazons turning into a fight when the amazons were just leaving last issue. I just really like how Cassie and Artemis interact as their methods clash but work out to a degree.

Plus Yara is still growing as a character after being exposed to a couple weaknesses. It's what'll make her growth all the more compelling.

Though the narrative in Wonder Girl has been interesting thus far, this issue slowed the pace a bit too much for my liking. I also felt as though the plot got a bit more convoluted. However, I'm still engaged in the story and looking forward to the next installment, and no one can deny that Jones' art is absolutely superb.

next issue coming out in october... fuck delays

Another good issue. I can't believe I never mentioned the art till now. It is beyond amazing. That alone could keep me reading. The story is ok, though it seems rushed to get to the desired ending of the issue: [Spoilers--Yara and João seemed rushed to create a love triangle with Eros, and it has become increasingly unclear whether the Cassandra and Artemis side story is happening simultaneously with Yara's as the Themysciran's at the plane crash also meet up with Cass and Artemis. I did enjoy the introduction of some Brazilian folklore, like the giant snake, who I assume attacked Eros to protect Yara--Spoilers]

Of course, I am most excited for the end of this issue, Because I love Hera! It has me so amped for the next issue!

This isn't bad, but it's really a shame they can't keep the comic's obvious selling point, the art, from having to be changed. I don't know whose idea it was, but it's been clear since Catwoman that Joelle Jones can't write and draw an ongoing series, or even just a full arc, with a regularly scheduled comic. The story is whatever. It doesn't really matter to me. The pacing and the momentum this series/character had is gone by now, honestly.

Any momentum Yara Flor had from her Future State debut is surely gone by this point. Despite a brilliant character design and reliably great Joelle Jones art, the story is ambiguous when it needs clarity and meandering when it needs to move forward.
