Wonder Woman continues to be the shining light, amongst a constellation of fantastic books, of DCs Rebirth. Read Full Review

Who needs Wonder Woman when you have such good art and character work on another female character. Rucka and Evely will make you believe Cheetah is a good and whole person which will pay dividends when she appears next. Read Full Review

An illuminating interlude that opens up another whole dimension in what we understand about Diana and Anns respective truths, Wonder Woman #8 is a road Im happy to travel and come back to wherever and whenever. Well be seeing Evely again come issue #16, but in the meantime, Ann has become the most surprising co-star of the series. Hopefully the wait for more of her story is not as long. Read Full Review

Honestly, I'd never thought I'd say this, but I could easily become invested in a series based around the Cheetah's origin and her eventual evolution into a villainess with barely a cameo from Diana, that's how compelling Rucka has made her. I continue to be pleasantly surprised by the fresh perspectives this series has to offer when another creator may have hit a rut and I'm excited to see what else may be revealed and revitalized down the road.

The only thing that does come to mind is that it sort of feels like the writers couldn't think of a way to fill in the gaps in between the main storyline. Hopefully they're just genuinely invested in fleshing out other characters in the narrative. It seems like they're leading the story on, and aren't just going to leave it hanging – so we haven't seen the last of Barbara Ann. Hopefully she has more to do with finding out what happened to Themyscira, especially since that portion of the plot-line has been dragged out considerably. This series is starting to make a lot of right decisions – this is definitely a step in the right direction. Read Full Review

Rucka continues to portray strong women well, while Evely's art is akin to Scott's and will clearly be a fine replacement in the near future. Read Full Review

While I am curious to see how others feel about this issue, I liked it as another piece of the larger puzzle that is Greg Rucka's Wonder Woman story.  This issue falls somewhere between Year One and the Lies, yet sheds light on both stories.  I loved the art and the ending left me wanting a lot more which I think was Greg Rucka's plan in the first place. Mission accomplished! Read Full Review

Final Thoughts: There is not one panel of Wonder Woman in this entire issue and yet I can't help but feel that this might be one of the best examples of this title I have read so far. Think about that! Read Full Review

This is a really strong issue. The art is fantastic and Greg Rucka does a great job of characterizing a villain people may not know much about. If you want to know more about Cheetah, definitely check this out. I recommend the issue; it's good fun. Read Full Review

Bilquis Evely does well setting the stage in this done-in-one tale, marking off Barbara's origin as distinct as possible. Much has already been said about Rucka's successful use of two different artists in crafting his Wonder Woman epic, but I was still anxious about the sort of quality a fill in artist would bring to the table. It's safe to say that Evely exceeds expectations, creating scenes that range from a stormy Ukraine to arid Tunisia. Evely even captures the scale of Barbara's journey with a large splash page that superimposes glimpses of various locales against the backdrop of a map. If Nicola Scott is indeed departing Wonder Woman, Evely could more than fill the boots she'll leave behind. Read Full Review

Greg Rucka offers a memorable look at Barbara's formative years, first as a young girl mourning the death of her mother and chafing under a stern father, and then as an idealistic archaeologist struggling to prove the existence of the Amazons. Read Full Review

As a stand alone issue, Wonder Woman #8 is a fun throwback to Indiana Jones. This young Minerva could anchor her own adventure mini-series. As an issue in the ongoing Wonder Woman story, it feels like a stopgap between story arcs--a delaying maneuver while the real story is put in place. In the end, fun is fun and this story enough to keep the reader entertained. Even if you want a Wonder Woman story this month, like I did, try to sit back and enjoy the scenic route.

I don't know what's going on, who these people are or where the story is going. Wonder Woman wasn't in this book, and she is my main drive for why I picked this book. I understand that clearly they're building some backstory and what not, which is cool, I get that. Even the doctor was cool in the sense that she kind of had that whole Tomb Raider thing going for her. The art was good, but inconsistent. Even from the first page, for example, the teacher's face looked gross and somehow unnatural, while everyone else looked fine. The colors were good, things like the doctor's boots and her motorcycle looked visually good. The story and dialogue were your typical Indiana Jones type story just with amazons included, so we'll just have to see where they're headed. I wasn't really pumped with the last issue. I'm more hopeful with this issue, but I need it to get better for me to hang on. Read Full Review

Isto é um 10.
Essa nova fase da mulher maravilha está muito boa.
A arte é a maravilhosa, e a história n fiz atrás.
Estou adorando muito.

A good break from the Wonder Woman stories by focusing on Cheetah's past. It allows for further exploration into characters, as well as the audience not being desensitized to continued changing of stories. Wonder Woman continues to be both written and paced well.

Great character-driven issue that lets the readers get to know Barbara Ann.
