This is a very excellent issue, not only tying it in to Devil's Reign, but also tying it in to Secret Invasion by introducing Skrull Queen Veranke as a villian (since she impersonated her during SI)! I can't wait for next issue!

Comics wise this has been a pretty good year for Wonder Woman but this is probably my favorite WW comic this whole year (probably even further back than that) and it doesn't even Diana in it!

I usually read digitally exclusive for the most part but I would absolutely say go out and get a physical copy of this. Jimenez was already my favorite WW artist but his work here blows away just about everyone who has ever worked on Wonder Woman before. Gene Ha and Nicola Scott have some grand canyon sized-shoes to fill.

Very interested to see where DeConnick takes this version of Hippolyta and the Amazons. I've read just about every origin of Wonder Woman and the Amazons that DC's put out and I don't think I've ever been as interested to see where this goes. more

It is a excellent dark retelling of The Amazon's origin from George Perez's run of Wonder Woman. The artwork by Phil Jimenez are absolutely gorgeous. The writing by Kelly Sue DeConnick is very compelling, suiting the grandeur of the Greek pantheon.
