    Overall this is an interesting, and ultimately heartbreaking, issue of Wonder Woman, that leaves you guessing as to what will come next and marveling at how well Rucka knows these characters, in every iteration. Read Full Review

    Overall WONDER WOMAN #13 perfectly balances action and development in a way that concludes "The Lies" on an intriguing note. It leaves us wondering who Veronica Cale is and why does she want to find Themyscira? With Etta Candy missing and Diana's sanity hanging by a thread, there's plenty to keep us interested in what's to come. Read Full Review

    The art changes over from the previous style, and whilst it could be seen as a little off-putting at first given that it is radically different, we loved it. It really detailed the desperation and sense of loss in Diana as she breaks down. It also helps bring the action to life and spring across the page. - our hats off to the artist of the issue, Renato Guedes. Overall, the Wonder Woman series is beginning to be one of our most anticipated releases as the series adds a whole new dimension to the classic story whilst carving it's own path for the Amazonian.

    Nicola Scott and Romulo Farjardo Jrs artwork continues to give us a vibrant and lush world while making each character distinct and beautiful in their own right. Their grasp of facial expressions, and understanding that less is more, make the quiet moments so much more impactful than they would be if handled by lesser artists. Read Full Review

    Comicosity - Matt Santori

    Dec 28, 2016

    Every book has a transition moment and Wonder Woman #13 is theirs, with Rucka getting the cast and his readers where we need to be for the next big move and arc. Guedes and Fajardo ultimately serviced Steve Trevor admirably, just maybe not Wonder Woman. As part of the greater scheme of things, however, this issue does a great job of shaking up the status quo and making me even more excited to see whats at stake in just 30 days as The Truth begins.

    Weird Science - Eric Shea

    Dec 28, 2016

    Wonder Woman continues to be intriguing and one hell of a book even though we're still just getting little dribs and drabs of information divvied out to us and with that, us continuing to pull our hair out at the question "What the hell is going on?!"  It's still a fun book though and developments here are enough to keep me coming back for me and singing this series' praises.   Read Full Review

    Comic Book Bin - Herv St-Louis

    Jan 03, 2017

    All of DC Comics issues this month suffer from guest artist syndrome. Renato Guedes is a solid artist but like those in other comics Ive reviewed in the past month, his work contrasts greatly with Liam Sharp, the regular illustrator on the current day stories. Even the colouring is different. Read Full Review

    Lyles Movie Files - Jeffrey Lyles

    Dec 28, 2016

    Wonder Woman has been such a solid read that it can afford a random off issue. Hopefully the series will get back on track with the flashback issue and the next chapter in the current day storyline with the regular creative art teams. Read Full Review

    DC Comics News - Sean Blumenshine

    Dec 28, 2016

    Overall, this is an okay issue. The art is good, for the most part, and I like a lot of the concepts. However, I don't like how Diana is drawn and I find the plot of the issue to be fairly uninteresting most of the time. Read Full Review

    While the art took a serious downturn, the story continues to rock. I'm loving it. I just wish we hadn't changed artists.

    Comic Book Review (8.5/10) "Great" Wonder Woman #13 "Angel Down" Writer: Greg Rucka Penciller: Renato Guedes Plot: Colonel Marina Maru (or as Wonder Woman fans may know her as Captain Poison) and her platoon have set out to capture Wonder Woman in Themyscira. Meanwhile, it seems like Wonder Woman is in shock from finding out that Themyscira was different than how she left it. Now it is up to Colonel Trevor to try and protect Wonder Woman in her weakened state... This is more of a Steve Trevor issue rather than a Diana issue, because Wonder Woman is essentially incapacitated at the begining of this issue. We are also treated to a legacy character in the form of Colonel Maru, but it seems this book doesn't call her Captain Poison. Maybe more

    The art change makes this issue jarring at first, but I settled in an ended up enjoying this book. Diana is in a precarious position, and Rucka does a great job of deepening the mystery of Themyscira and Diana's past.

    Not a huge fan of this issue, but I will trust Rucka to make a great resolution to this next arc. It was nice seeing that Steve Trevor could actually handle himself, instead of being constantly saved my Wonder Woman. Let's see what happens to crazy Diana next.

    This book has fallen prey to the modern house style, which stretches out plotlines in order to fill trade paperbacks. I've been holding on because of my appreciation for Rucka, but that hasn't kept me from slowly losing interest.

    Poor art man, jesus christ.. anyone who says this art is good should get their eyes checked.. oh and by the way, i love steve man, i mean the dude never stopped loving diana after these long years.. dc shoul just give him some justice and stop making him this sort of unrequitted love. I mean diana goes "i cant love you steve coz its complicated or something bullshit". Are yoi still on with this shit again DC? But ofcourse she said i love you to new 52 superman willingly even though steve was the one who has been with her from the start. This shit is getting old man.. rucka thinks wonder woman is the best character? Then prove it man! Write a good goddamn story! AT least year one is 10 times better than the lies. Ill give you that.
