This is still my favorite WW book. I haven't read this in awhile, so had to look back some. Decided to finish this run though. At times, it reads like something straight from mythology. ( )

The fight between Wonder Woman and Firstborn was amazing. I liked the display of brute strength, but loved the cunning employed. ( )

In the last book, Hera joined forces with Wonder Woman, Lennox, her brother, an alien from another realm named Orion and sometimes War to protect Zola and her child who is prophecized to take the throne of Zeus. In Antarctica Zeus and Hera's firstborn son has defrosted and is seeking the throne for himself and seeks to kill all who stand in his way. Cassandra, the voice of the gods and Lennox's sister is helping him.

Zola decides to name her son Zeke while the Moon Goddess is sent by Apollo to kill Zeke and Wonder Woman again puts her down while Lennox and Hera get Zola and the baby out of harm's way and go to a safe house of Lennox's. After having made an agreement with Hades and Poseidon to leave their kingdoms alone the firstborn heads off to meet up with Lennox to destroy Zeke.

Orion arrives to help but they're getting their asses kicked all over the place and need an exit strategy so Zola grabs his transport and urges everyone to hop on and they head off into a tube that will lead them to Orion's homeworld, but Lennox goes back and closes the gate so they can get there. While there they must figure out their next moves. I was disappointed in the drawing of Poseidon as he was drawn as a giant ugly fish. I guess I expected something more majestic and godlike. But then Hades has never looked like much either but a child with a burning head. It's hard to imagine him having sex with Persephone. At the same time, the drawing of Apollo, Moon, War, Hera, and Wonder Woman are so amazing you can forgive a couple of screwups. The stakes are getting higher in this book in the series as some of them die. This series gets better with each comic and I can't wait to read the next one. I highly recommend this book. ( )

I read this one out of order but I am really enjoying this Wonder Woman series, which goes all out with warring Greek gods, who are depicted shown here as classically petty, arrogant and spiteful and reminded me of Neil Gaiman's Endless. Of course Wonder Woman, as a daughter of Zeus, is deeply enmeshed in these conflicts. I particularly like the innovative depictions of the gods Apollo, Ares, Poseidon and Hades. In this story Wonder Woman leads her band of disaffected gods, superheroes and mortals into battle with the forces of the First Born, while trying to protect the last child of the vanished Zeus. ( )

Finally! A story arc I can follow! I like this reboot for Wonder Woman. I like even more that I get her background even though I've never followed a single story arc. The artwork is exceptional. ( )
