If you asked Wonder Woman who her nemesis is, she might just say Veronica Cale-and now Veronica has the powers of the actual god Nemesis under her control! Some of the resurrected Olympians whom Wonder Woman has encountered have changed in unpredictable ways...is there a crack in Nemesis' armor that Diana can get through? Or will she miss the chance to redeem yet another of her divine brethren?

Mar 04, 2019This is a strong issue. Wilson plays with expectations from the last issue and the story takes a more interesting turn. I'm curious to see where this goes. The art is nice as well and it's an enjoyable read. Read Full Review

Feb 27, 2019G. Willow Wilson's run on Wonder Woman has veered from very good to excellent, and it seems like every few issues I find a minor problem with the narrative " only for her to immediately dovetail and resolve my issues. Read Full Review

You Don't Read Comics - Christopher Landers
Feb 27, 2019Overall, this issue was a marked improvement over the last, which was a worrisome start to the new arc. So far, Wilson has been hit and miss, but she has produced more good issues than not, and her general understanding of Wonder Woman as a character is among the best in the history of this book. Hopefully, she is just getting her plan for the larger picture of her run together, and things will continue to even out. Read Full Review

Weird Science - Jim Werner
Feb 27, 2019This issue was ok, I liked it more the first time I read it and less so in subsequent read-throughs. As with last issue there are some positive takeaways, but still, this just isn't quite sticking for me yet. It's crazy, but we're already 8 issues into G. Willow's run and as much as I want her to succeed and remind readers why Diana is one of the best characters in all of comics, we aren't getting that yet. I still have hope, but even with the mild improvements here the meandering plot is becoming tiresome. Read Full Review

Feb 28, 2019It's consistently inconsistent, and that makes for an odd read overall. Read Full Review

This issue looked fantastic, and had my ideal balance of WW mythology and ground level dialogue (while also often serving as a metaphor for international interventionism). Possibly Wilson's strongest entry so far.

I'm a little bit less annoyed about the plot and the emotional connection between WW and Veronica Cale was actually nice, but it felt like their thing was resolved too quick? I dunno.

Digging Aphrodite here. Wonder Woman finally uncovers what's really been happening, it was a good twist. Veronica may be a woman of power who could very well control someone as powerful as Nemesis but it was the other way around all along.

This issue teaches us that all the "evil" person needs sometimes is a hug. G. Willow Wilson continues to portray Wonder Woman in an awesome manner. Diana is strong, smart, determined and yet she shows some vulnerability (seeing Diana crying is gut-wrenching). I really like her take on the character, it's great. And finally, after such a long time Jesus Merino's art is starting to grow on me. I liked it in this issue.

So I trust that this was the part one and 66 was a part two. But no it's a part two. No sweet. I understand it anyway. It was not very good, but not bad easer. Better than the first issue of Wilson. Cover - Nice & related 2/2 Writing - It was interesting even if I don't like that both olympus & thermiscara was lost again. It's a runing joke. 2.5/3 Arts - Merino do good, even if the part with darker inking isn't that good (He isn't deodato ^^ ) 3/3 Feeling - If I had to choose to follow or not wonder woman with this one. This one not a good issue for convincing me. 0/2

Art is on point. The Cale side story is old hat, I've always hated comics that go in that direction. The return of the Olympians is a fun arc, though it does seem at odds with JLD. I guess it must take place before it? Either way, a fun little arc. I don't think this is comparable to the stories that were going on before the writer change but its still enjoyable nonetheless.
