    James Robinson is doing some interesting world building, blending in whats come before (specifically Kirbys New Gods and Fourth World storylines) while at the same time layering in a sense of impending doom. Something is coming for Diana and her family. Its not what we think, and more than likely its going to be devastating. Read Full Review

    On Comics Ground - Christina Williams Oct 12, 2017

    The storytelling is enthralling. I want to find out more of the energy spikes belonging to Apokolips. Information would really be the treasure of Hercules at this moment, not just for us, as the readers, but for Diana as well. It was difficult to put it down, and the art only adds to it. Plot driven and emotional, the issue leaves you begging for more. Narrative pacing allows for the emotions to come across cleanly without being rushed or dragging too far along. I have few criticisms. The only one of note would be that the art can be a little rough in the beginning of this arc, but the artists have captured the emotion so thoroughly, it is easy to ignore. I found it very easy to become engaged with the story, and eagerly await the next issue. Read Full Review

    James Robinson's 'Children of the Gods' continues with a strong mystery that also involves plenty of Wonder Woman action. Read Full Review

    The Children of the Gods arc continues in spectacular fashion that definitely makes this an event story for Wonder Woman and I for one cannot wait until Diana comes face to face with Grail and perhaps even Darkseid himself. Read Full Review

    This chapter is a step up from the last by making the story more personal and the art more phenomenal. Read Full Review

    Perhaps the best issue since Rucka's run ended. Wonderful art, lots of action, and Diana finally having family to reach out to. Who knows what will become of Wknder Woman's brother, but the journey to get to him has been interesting. Read Full Review

    The story feels like a mystery but with super powered beings. It's a slow start but it's easy to guess where the story goes next. Read Full Review

    Lyles Movie Files - Jeffrey Lyles Oct 11, 2017

    The issue ends on a solid cliffhanger, which given the opening pages of this arc, won't lead to a positive conclusion. This is a great half on an issue even with the slowed momentum. Read Full Review

    Comic Watch - Christina Hamlet Oct 30, 2017

    Overall, Wonder Woman as a book seems to still be trying to find its balance since Rebirth. The good news is that the stories themselves are well-written and the art is solid. Next issue sees us learning more about Dianas history and perhaps tying things together a little more. And of course, we expect to find out what Grail has planned for Diana. Whatever it is, its probably not good, but almost sure to be exciting! Read Full Review

    Bleeding Cool - Joshua Davison Oct 16, 2017

    This still isnt a bad comic, though. It is fun in parts, Wonder Woman is a great hero, and the art is damn good. However, it just doesnt quite feel like a good Wonder Woman comic. I can tentatively recommend it, but it just doesnt quite measure up to the rest of the Rebirth fare. Read Full Review

    For a story that's ostensibly so important to Wonder Woman's journey in DC Rebirth, it's a little perplexing that DC didn't put more effort into maintaining a consistent art team here. Read Full Review

    Comic Crusaders - Johnny "The Machine" Hughes Oct 11, 2017

    When Rebirth and the fortnightly schedule was announced for so many DC books, I worried about the impact that this would have on the art. With Wonder Woman, DC seemed to get around this by running a past and present format, featuring Nicola Scott and the return of Liam Sharpe. Now that the book has gone single time frame, those worries are back. Now with another quality writer on board in Robinson, DC owes Wonder Woman aregular art team that can deliver every issue. As it is, this book is teetering on the consistently inconsistent knife edge. Read Full Review

    Final Verdict: 6.8 " “Wonder Woman” #32 is an enigma, teasing a premise and threat that feels opaque. Read Full Review

    Weird Science - Eric Shea Oct 11, 2017

    While I'm still all about this story, this issue seemed like a lot of filler just to get us to our cliffhanger and for how excited I've been for this reveal, that's a little disappointing.  The art in this issue is great though and I can't wait to see what James Robinson will give us next.  I just hope it's a little more to the point.  Read Full Review

    Comic Book Corps - Jeff Oct 11, 2017

    Ugh, this was not a fun issue for me to read. The jumps in locations and overly wordy dialog sunk this comic. I read comics to be taken on a journey and to be at the edge of my seat, waiting with anticipation for the next installment. I expect we'll get much more later from this plot and perhaps this boring issue gives us hints necessary to enjoy later chapters, but as a fan of Wonder Woman I will not be re-reading #32.

    Comics: The Gathering - Hussein Wasiti Oct 11, 2017

    I was excited for this story but this issue really put a damper on my excitement. It was a fine issue, but its baffling plotting and pacing confused me and the art simply wasn't up to par with what we got last issue. Read Full Review

    DC Comics News - Sean Blumenshine Oct 12, 2017

    This is an okay issue. The art is great which especially helps the big action scene. I like some of the ideas and I'm still interested in the story. But the issue feels a little padded to me; not enough happens. Sometimes this happens when stories are trying to fill up a trade so they have to be stretched to six parts, even if it's unnecessary.

    Yes, I know. Matt thinks everyone is gay. Until proven otherwise, YUP. But small request: maybe we need an artist who will actually draw some nipples on Jason. Cmon. This is not OK.) Read Full Review

    Newsarama - Matthew Sibley Oct 12, 2017

    Remember how James Robinson is, possibly best, known for writing compelling family drama? Most extensively in his Starman run, but even recently with Scarlet Witch, it was a welcome hallmark to his writing because he did it so well. Yet as of the end of his second Wonder Woman issue, it just feels like he's going through the motions attached to the theme as does his story. Read Full Review
