Cheetah's gone wild! After serving as the test subject for an immoral corporation's latest product, Barbara Minerva has all but lost her humanity and it's up to Wonder Woman to remind her who she really is. Will their former friendship be the key to survival? Or are our hero and the helpless villain doomed to become extinct? Plus, in our backup story, a guest star from Olympus visits young Diana's world for the first time.
Minerva has occasionally shown a more heroic side on the comics page. Conrad, Cloonan, and company give the Cheetah one of her most believable moments of heroism in a very palpable transformation. Diana has always been very focused on reforming the villains that she tangles with. With issue #792, Conrad and Cloonan deliver one of the most emotionally engaging transformations that Wonder Woman has ever managed in a single issue. The Barbara Minerva that Conrad and Cloonan bring to Wonder Woman #792 is well worth her own series. Read Full Review
Sauvage's art is gorgeous, particularly in the chaotic escape segments as Diana and an army of animals make their run from the creepy factory towards the end of the main story. But good art isn't enough to carry a story, so I was pleasantly surprised to find this issue also had some of the most powerful emotional scenes of the run so far. Read Full Review
While "Feral" is seemingly only a two-parter, the story arc opens up several plot threads that will surely continue as we reach closer towards Wonder Woman's milestone 800th issue next year. With art by top-tier talent like Marguerite Sauvage, this title is in great hands. Read Full Review
Wonder Woman probably needs a creative shakeup at this point as Cloonrads run has become increasingly inconsistent. At least theres a clear direction for this arc, but its hard to trust it will be worth the buildup given their track record. Read Full Review
Wonder Woman #792 is kind of a mixed bag. The art in the main story (done by Marguerite Sauvage) is very well done and the actual main story is interesting as well, but there doesn't seem to be much heart behind it. Read Full Review
I wonder why DC Fan of Sorts didn't include the male writer of the writing team in his comment. Curious.
EDIT: I was hasty to make fun of DC Fan of Sorts. He did include the male writer in his comment. In an effort to remain transparent, I'll leave the original review above. From here on out, I'll just make fun of all the other aspects of his character. 🙏
