    Wedding of the year ( possible spoilers) 2

    Another Wonder Woman issue of the new 52 that does not disappoint. In this issue we see the return of Strife, the revelation of both the ex wife of Hades, Persephone, the God of love Aphrodite, and we question whether not Wonder Woman is scheming against Hades or is really under the clutches of Hades. It is all freaking excellent. The writing continues to be top notch and the depiction of Hell continues to be creative. The art itself proved to work better here than it did in issue 6, more partic...

    Wedding Drama 0

    THE GOOD: Tony Akins in on art duties. I really like the way that he drew the backgrounds in this issue. In a place where there shouldn't be much more then fire and death, he makes it very beautiful and it makes the story just flow better I think. I also really like the way he drew the scenes between the characters and the expression is amazingly clear in every panel. The story is amazing. I really wasn't sure where this was going to go but I think that Brain Azzarello has a very clever plan and...

    The Best Wedding Story 0

    The extra hint of detail and shadows Chiang puts into this cover push it just a little bit over the edge into full glory. The logo is almost wrapped in Wonder Woman's own weapon in a noose ready for her throat. The tilted angle back and the reaching hands all create a fantastic sense of desperation and tension for our heroine; and yet she still has her collected and focused expression of proud un-arrogant defiance.And then we get inside and we have Tony Akins instead of Cliff Chiang. Yes, Akins ...

    Love Me, Love Me Not 0

    Its very rare that what is essentially a filler issue gets me so excited and leaves me with a feeling of absolute contentment, but that is basically what happened here. I continue to be amazed at the quality of writing that's being churned out by Azzarello on this title. In this issue, we see a further exploration into the pantheon of gods that populate Wonder Woman's world and, at the same time, we discover a little bit about Hades' character. Who would have thought the ruler of the underworld ...

    Deeper into the Styx. 1

    Following the events of Wonder Woman #8, Diana finds herself enthralled by Hades, king of the underworld. But while the colorful cast of friends she has made along the way rush to save her from an impeding marriage to the cunning god, it seems Diana may be plotting a plan of her own. And of course, whenever trouble befalls Wonder Woman, Strife is behind the scenes digging the knife further in. The story is as engaging as ever, and although I don't think Brian Azzarello has yet done Wonder Woman ...

    Incapable of love 0

    This series is somewhat becoming known as one of shocking moments, and generally through the revelation of new information.  This has been good at times, and when it has been going strong it has been really strong.  When not though, it becomes apparent that behind the shock there is sometimes not as much substance.  This is the case here as the series progresses from the cliffhanger ending to the previous issue where Hades wants Diana to be his bride.  There is a fair amount of developments here...
