    After all is said and done, after 27 issues that tell a powerful, personal tale about women and how they do or do not let themselves be defined by their losses, I can honestly say I am satisfied. Not satisfied enough to stop counting the days until this creative team can reunite to tell their next great tale, but comforted by Dianas resolve, reunion, and relief. Perfect is indeed the apt title of this tale, and the right note upon which to rest this tale. Perfect. Yes, perfect. Read Full Review

    Rucka returning to Wonder Woman was one of the major selling points of DC Rebirth for a lot of readers. At the conclusion of his run, all that hype definitely proved warranted and Perfect marked the ideal way to go out. Read Full Review

    Rucka, Sharp, and Evely gotta get their due credit for being the ones that revitalized Wonder Woman's mythos for DC Comics. This team brought us a lot of depth and closed many gaps, questions, and speculations in Diana's deep rooted history in DC Universe. The series closes out a light note that not only Steve and Diana deserve but one this creative team deserves as well. Read Full Review

    Almost fittingly this last issue is titled "Perfect", which I would say sums up Rucka's run on Wonder Woman. With amazing artists like Liam Sharp, Bilquis Evely, and Nicola Scott Wonder Woman has returned to her full glory. It is sad to see this team leave, however, what they have left us with is nothing short of legendary. Read Full Review

    Flickering Myth - Ricky Church Jun 30, 2017

    Overall, Wonder Woman #25 is a great send off for the whole team. While some things could perhaps have been more neatly wrapped, it did tie the main story up nicely and focused on the importance of the characters. The examination of Diana's emotional state was brought to life through Sharp, Evely and Fajardo's artwork, making the whole issue impactful. It's definitely bittersweet to see them all go, but they went out on top. Read Full Review

    Newsarama - Matthew Sibley Jun 28, 2017

    The harmony of the creative team has been front and center throughout, a team with a single vision – to show what makes Diana Wonder Woman in the first place over creating an interpretation that would be more at home in an Elseworlds tale. A tale rich with symbolism and dense with meaning that never lost sight of what Diana represents even as her world was shaken up. I can only hope that this run provides a sense of stability going forward for her, after countless origin stories, having had her core ideals re-cemented and then her story furthered. That said, even if this does itself subject to a future writer deeming this tale another lie, I have faith that this will go down as one of the classics, as fondly remembered as Rucka’s original run, as a compassionate conclusion that stands as affirmation of everything Diana can be.  Read Full Review

    On Comics Ground - Christina Hamlet Jun 29, 2017

    Overall the issue was a solid capstone to Wonder Woman's rebirth and a perfect send off from the creative team. Next issue will see the beginning to an exciting chapter in Diana's life. If it's anything like what we've seen so far, it's going to be an incredible ride. Read Full Review

    IGN - Jesse Schedeen Jun 29, 2017

    There are too many loose threads and open-ended conflicts remaining for Rucka to really tie everything together in one issue. But emotionally, Wonder Woman #25 serves as a strong finish to that run. Read Full Review

    This is a solid issue. The artwork is good throughout; the characters, backgrounds and colors all look great. I like what's done with Diana as a character and seeing what she's going through emotionally. Batman and Superman have a nice part to play and there's a sweet ending with Steve Trevor. I recommend reading the issue. Read Full Review

    PopMatters - Jack Fisher Jun 29, 2017

    Overall, Rucka's run on Wonder Woman is a remarkable accomplishment. At a time when Gal Gadot, Chris Pine, and Patty Jenkins are elevating Wonder Woman's star to new heights, her DC: Rebirth journey finds a way to make that star burn a little brighter. Wonder Woman is tough, compassionate, loving, loyal, and beautiful on every level. It's not something that most people need to be reminded of, but some reminders are still worth having.

    Wonder Woman #25 is everything I was expecting, bringing a fitting ending to Greg Ruka‘s run on the character. Giving us a fun adventure involving the Justice League, as well as some deep reflection on the heartache Diana has went through as of late, the creative team give us a thrilling final outing.

    I'm compelled to tell the truth: I'm disappointed the final issue of Rucka's run didn't answer many of the questions raised during Rebirth. However, it didn't need to. The truth of Wonder Woman has never changed and this is a story about finding the truth in yourself. Read Full Review

    Weird Science - Eric Shea Jun 27, 2017

    Greg Rucka's run has come to a close and now that all the Lies and Truths have been told.......... there really isn't anything much different about our hero.  Everyone loves Wonder Woman and she'll keep fighting the good fight to ensure that peace and love prevail.  The art was amazing as always here, but besides for just being a "nice" issue, there isn't much going on here except not leaving a mess behind for the next creative team.  I still enjoyed reading and looking at it though.   Read Full Review

    With Shea Fontana doing a short run on the title before James Robinson advancing the Jason storyline, I'm looking forward for the book to move past this storyline and try something new. As for this issue, it left a sour taste in my mouth and I'm bummed that Rucka's run had to end on a whimper. Read Full Review

    Even the great art by Liam Sharp and Bilquis Evely will not make me forget what a stupid story Rucka wrote about Wonder Woman was. It could have been so much more. Read Full Review
