Diana remains true to her Core!
Format: Hardcover
A truly unique take on the Amazon Princess with stunning visuals, beautiful art and throughly engrossing story. I most appreciate seeing the character of Diana remaining firm even when all the circumstances of her life have changed. Highly recommend to both the new reader and the longtime fan that would enjoy a fresh take on an old friend.

Pretty good, all things considered.
Format: Hardcover
Definitely gets better in the second arc, but the first one is worth picking up nonetheless.

Powerful story that shows a different side of Wonder Woman
Format: Paperback
Loved it!!! Iβve always been a WW fan, and this take shows a side of her thatβs both empowering and fierce. The storytelling feels bold and modern without losing what makes her iconic. The artwork is stunning, rich colors and sharp detail that really pull you in. The book itself is quality. Absolute Wonder Woman delivers a story that feels fresh, strong, and unapologetically powerful.

Great take on Wonder Woman
Format: Hardcover, Format: Hardcover
The book arrived in perfect condition. The packaging was secure, and there were no dents, creases, or scratches on the cover or pages. This volume is a fantastic addition to the Wonder Woman mythos, with Kelly Thompson bringing a fresh take on Wonder Woman while still respecting everything that makes the character iconic. The artwork deserves just as much praise with the colorful hell aesthetic.
