I picked this one up on a whim and found it to be actually a lot more decent than I expected. I liked the style of the artwork- it seemed fresh and modern and portrayed Wonder Woman as both strong and feminine. The words are probably too advanced for an early reader- smirked, Ares, lasso etc. and the writing felt very flat, but probably not a horrible choice if it will bring enjoyment.

WONDER WOMAN! My son loved it- a good female superhero!

Of all of Jaffe's Wonder Woman books, this is the one that most closely resembles the plots of the actual WW comic, with Wonder Woman fighting Strife. A good book overall.
