The final sprint to the end of Conrad and Cloonans run on Wonder Woman feels like its going to be an intrepid triumph. The writing team is pacing everything thoughtfully while still keeping the energy rolling. (The sudden reappearance of Ratatosk is a welcome addition to the issue as well.) Campbells continuation of Mary Marvels journey is a well-conceived back-up that integrates nicely with the rest of the issue. Read Full Review
Wonder Woman #797 is a great continuation of the Revenge of the Gods story and features a great horror-themed main story complemented by an equally wonderful second tale, and sets up perfectly for Wonder Woman and Mary Marvels stories to continue in Lazarus Planet: Revenge of the Gods #2.

Overall, the main story is fun and has some great visuals, particularly on the giant monsters they encounter, but it feels a bit like a side story compared to the main mini. Read Full Review
Wonder Woman #797 follows Wonder Woman's escape from Hera's clutches while the Gods begin their assault on humanity. The art is top-notch, and the story moves with a quick pace and plenty of action. Despite a few flaws, the War of the Gods is shaping up to be a decent adventure. Read Full Review
Having a mini-event to deal with the consequences of a previous event is a fairly rare path for DC to tread, and it's always been interesting to see them do this. Final Crisis is a great example of this, and I firmly believe that Lazarus Planet is another. This is an event that will touch the DC universe for a long time yet. It's only just begun Read Full Review
Theres a sense that the Revenge of the Gods arc could go in several directions as Cloonrad try to make sense of their various ideas. Hopefully theyll settle on a workable one as their run draws to a conclusion. Read Full Review
Wonder Woman #797 is, like much of the Cloonan/Conrad run in more recent months, frustrating. It's a patchwork of ideas as the story edges to its conclusion that pits Wonder Woman against Hera, but the ideas never really deliver and, more than that elements that are teasedsuch as the new champion of Shazamaren't delivered upon.

Hey a Wonder Woman event that isn't trash! At least not so far. I actually really want to see what happens here.
