kareilaI found these collections at my local library, but probably wouldn't have picked them up if my friend Mack hadn't recommended them to me. I can't compare this version to anything that came before, as the sum total of my Wonder Woman knowledge comes from watching the TV show when I was 4 years old.
As usual, my difficulty engaging with the graphic novel format prevents me from having a strong opinion about the story. I will say that I like that WW is a hero dedicated to protecting the innocent from harm at all costs, and also someone who struggles with unwelcome revelations about her heritage. The fact that she is able to throw down with the Greek gods is a bit surprising, and makes me wonder about the extent of her powers. Her foil, a demigod named Strife, seems to have walked out of a Neil Gaiman story, and her motley crew of allies is entertaining, if inadequately introduced.
