    I don't really have any complaints; this is a great issue. The art is great to look at and engaging especially in scenes with Wonder Woman herself. I loved getting to know the current villains more and learn their backstory. It's interesting and I cannot wait to read more. I highly recommend reading this issue. Read Full Review

    Capeless Crusader - Jeremy Radick Feb 8, 2017

    Wonder Woman #16 builds upon a run that's been strong right out of the gate, as the series continues to move from strength to strength, telling fun and iconic super hero tales without sacrificing the shades of grey that provide nuance. New artist Bilquis Evely proves a strong and effective addition, and writer Greg Rucka continues to hit it out of the park. Read Full Review

    I haven't been this excited for Wonder Woman in a long time. The character is larger than life, the art equally so, and the characters vividly real. Read Full Review

    While the art has changed the quality storytelling remains. Any fears the title would stumble in Scott's absence appear unfounded, which is great news for readers. Read Full Review

    Razorfine - Alan Rapp Feb 13, 2017

    While it may not be the stuff of epic super-villain origin, the issue sets up strong motivations for Veronica Cale with jealousy and misplaced hatred towards Diana for what has happened to her daughter. Without even realizing it, Diana has made a new enemy. Worth a look. Read Full Review

    Weird Science - Jim Werner Feb 8, 2017

    Greg Rucka starts his Godwatch story with a powerful origin story of a character and a hate that will plague Wonder Woman from here on out.  It's very quick moving, but with great art by new series artist, Bilquis Evely, and a story full of action and mystery, I can easily recommend it.

    Comicosity - Matt Santori Feb 8, 2017

    An interesting read, but a rough visual transition from previous issues Bilquis Evelys own, included Wonder Woman #16 has some necessary building blocks for the story as a whole. In particular, in witnessing the creation of a new villain, we get to see Wonder Woman start to rebuild her own rogues gallery from the ground up. With the promise of more to come (Circle, Dr. Poison, the Cheetah), theres no question youre going to want to return in four weeks to keep seeing where Dianas first year takes her. Hopefully we just get to do so with Evely on her own inks, settled into the series with as much fanfare and bravado as she deserves. (But damn it, isn't that cover just something else? Wowza.)
