Man-ifest your future! Thanks to Cizko's new catchphrase, he's gained fans, and more importantly, soldiers in his war against Wonder Woman. But with Checkmate at our hero's side, the depraved doctor will have to bring in big guns like...the Duke of Deception! Will this former agent of Ares prove too much for the Amazon Princess? Plus, a growing danger lurks on the island of Diana's youth in our backup story!
Wonder Woman #789 is an issue that succeeds on multiple levels. On the surface it's an interesting adventure with a mystery that keeps you guessing while showcasing the camaraderie between Diana and her allies. At the same time there's a lot of subtext about the history of the Wonder Woman character that connects to pertinent political and social themes. It's more than your ordinary comic and it makes you think. Read Full Review
I've been such a big fan of Cloonan and Conrad's work on theWonder Woman title, and this issue proves they have staying power. This level of quality storytelling is everything I hope for when opening a comic featuring the Amazon superhero. Read Full Review
The crazy energy that opens the issue in the main feature is a lot of fun. Once again, the current title feels remarkably well-balanced between the main feature and the back-up. The beautiful stillness in the drama of Bellaires Young Diana story ends the issue with a cool intensity that tempers the rough and tumultuous aggression that dominates the mood and energy of the main story.
