No thank you perfectly summarises what King's writing has had to offer so far. The prose is incredibly self-indulgent and ruins whatever immersion could be had with the captivating art and what was an interesting story idea. The main problem is, at any point, King could absolutely nail it as he's done in other runs, so his inconsistency keeps fans going in the hope that the quality will do a classic King 180.

I may have made this analogy last issue but I can't get past it: this entire run has been like an essay that was written the night before on an unfamiliar topic with a focus on just making the word count.
The content is messy, unexplained and underwhelming, and the story so far is just some shadow organisation fighting WW in whatever way possible while she says trite lines and we get a shit-ton of misogyny in the guise of feminism.
There seems to be no point, no plot movement, no meaningful story, no character development ... there's just NOTHING in this.
I hate it and yet I will probably continue to read it in the hopes of it taking a turn for the better. Surely it HAS to happen at some point?!

Wonder Woman vs a big bitch and her friends. Some epic as hell fights here, and a great last stand, overall great issue. Oh and the backup? FUCKING ADORABLE>>>>>> I love Damien and Jon as babysitters.

ZERO STARS ⭐
Awful. Pure and simple, just awful.
I know Tom King pretends he's an incredible writer, but this one was pretentious as hell. It reads like it's written by King Arthur or something. So God damn bad. I could barely finish it. I really need to learn NOT to buy anything King touches. He is actually the worst, most infuriating Comic writer I've ever read.

Eu estou curioso para saber quem está narrando a história da Diana, principalmente porque estão contando isso para a filha da princesa, ou seja, ou isso aconteceu e estão contando à ela como apenas uma história, ou a garota está em perigo.
Dito isso, essa edição também é muito boa, que run excelente que o Tom King está fazendo na Mulher Maravilha, está sendo muito bom ver críticas sociais e a Diana sendo levada ao extremo, mostrando toda sua capacidade como guerreira e heroína pertencente a trindade da DC.
Eu não sou muito fã da mitologia da heroína, e tal qual o superman, eu não gosto muito de heróis muito poderosos, mas toda a simbologia da Mulher Maravilha e suas ações aplicadas aos dias atuais, está extremamente bom, o Tom King está trabalhando muito bem a personagem.
Quero muito saber onde esse conflito contra os EUA irá levar a Diana e quanto isso vai mexer no status da heroína

Climax to the OUTLAW arc...as WW and Giganta wreak havoc and tear up landmarks in DC.
Then the real battle begins....

I can see the argument that Tom King is too verbose: The abundance of words plus the back and forth between narration, thoughts, and dialogue could pull a reader out of the story. Well, that may be true of a lesser story, but not this story. This story fuckin rules. When the Washington Monument gets used as a murder weapon, you forfeit the right to claim you were bored. Maybe the problem is your attention span.

There’s been some great action that maximizes Wonder Woman’s distinct powers and abilities — but this issue takes the cake so far. This is an issue-long testament to WW the warrior with some incredible set pieces. Tom King’s narration doesn’t always work but it’s in good effect here, in the mode he developed with Supergirl, commenting on the process by which actions become myth+legend. This is a legendary fight but we’re made to feel, rightly, than we can only now experience its wake.

My love-hate relationship with the Trinity backups continues. I still don’t think King knows anything about Damian Wayne, Jon Kent, or what their relationship is like. This would be an accurate depiction of them if they never progressed past the early Super Sons issues. They still push each other’s buttons, but they are undeniably best friends. The argument the boys have where Jon is calling Damian out for being incredibly rich and Damian gives it back to him about having his parents’ undivided attention feels particularly out of place at a time of publication, when Bruce and Damian are living in the brownstone because Bruce is significantly less rich and lost the manor, and Jon’s parents’ attention has been focused on Otho and Osul. I know this is meant to take place in the future, but it only exacerbates my confusion about when this meant to take place.
Otherwise, little Lizzie is funny as usual.

This is a you hate it or love it (ok, love is a strong word, let's settle with like) run / writting.
There is no middle ground.
I preferred the last issue, this type of long prose introspective writting is less adapted to a fight scene in my opinion (this issue is a single fight).
The art is beautiful.

This book continues to be fun! The main story is certainly leaning in to making a “legend” of Wonder Woman, and the art is fantastic. Likewise, the backups continue to be genuine and fun.

This series gets better and better. Number 6 was the best yet and so intense and classic. This is Wonder Woman at her best.

The spin! The spin! 〜(꒪꒳꒪)〜
Side bar, spinning off topic - I love when Harley Quinn is a Batfam side kick and I love that she loves Sailor Moon. I really really really really really want to see her shadowing WW dressed as Sailor Moon and screaming Moon Tiara Magic! as Diana pummels her opponent. That said, *the spin* started this counter elseworld experience in my head and it was epic. DC - make this happen!
Okay. That's out of my system.
There are so many words. I still agree with everything I said in #5's review, but the monologuing runs long here. It cuts into the action and muddies everything, and that dropped the entertainment factor. There's also the whole God/Princess thing. Doesn't that really apply to both of them? So referring to one as one and the other as the other (wow, do I have a way with words or what?) is totally...meh. I mean, Diana outlived everyone in the events before she went to Valhalla instead of Mount Olympus following her death. Does that not qualify her as godlike? Possibly even moreso than ___? Wasn't she declared the new Goddess of War? Her origins waffle between being made from clay by her mother and being a life and blood daughter of Zeus. Her creation is even brought up here...but even that is not really delved into beyond superficial words.
Idk. That whole sequence was unnecessarily wordy anyway. But, if the whole deal with this run is to consolidate WW's mucky and many origins over the decades, shouldn't her status and creation also be consolidated and cleared up? Maybe that will be forthcoming. Maybe I'm taking unnecessary issue with a non-issue. It's not really an issue. It's just wordy. Like this review. Wooooooorrrtrddddssssssssss.
(I'm sorry.)
I do like this run. I just think this issue in particular isn't cohesive and doesn't meet the high standards that previous issues have set. And also, the Washington Monument is hollow. You can go up into it.
Anyway, some issues with this issue.
Lizzie in the backup is as adorable as usual. The timing and ages are starting to get to me, though. Damian seems younger than he is currently and Jon doesn't look like he's aged at all, and, while much is unknown about Trinity, the material out there implies that this should be taking place in the future. Clarity here would be appreciated. And I agree with others about Bruce Wayne's financial situation. It's not consistent with his current status. But! If this does take place in the future, maybe that's changed? Or maybe this is on a different Earth?
Lastly...this story goes on hiatus until issue 8. Whyyy? (Yes, I'm whining.) We're going to lose momentum.

LUCHA DE TITANES.
El ataque orquestado por el Sargento Steel y su Escuadrón "Anti Wonder Woman" tiene lugar en pleno Whasington DC. Planteando lo que podría ser una guerra abierta contra las Amazonas. Y por supuesto esto se traduce en una destrucción que haría tambalear el mismísimo Olimpo. Los antiguos villanos de Diana hacen poderosos tandems o demandan sus respectivos intereses con la Princesa Amazona para resentirla de cara un nuevo encontronazo con una de las mayores nemesis de Wonder Woman.
Increíble si logras llegar a la nueva historieta de Trinity en la que justamente se busca tranquilidad y sosiego para una noche de dulces sueños, estando Damian y Jon a cargo de la renacuaja más enérgica del nuevo panteón DCita.

As set up with the previous issue, this issue is Wonder Woman vs a lot of her rogues gallery hired by Sarge Steel, and I thought it was satisfying for the most part. I did find Silver Swan to be a little weirdly characterized, but overall, the action flowed nicely from panel to panel. I've got to admit though, while I've never found Grail to be that compelling of a villain or character (oh an evil version of Wonder Woman, how original), I've got to say, the final battle between her and Wonder Woman I found to be epic. Actually cementing her clay origin to be her true and superior origin. I wonder how the story will continue after the next issue (next issue is a break issue).

There is less suspense in a fight when the text boxes are supposedly telling you that the fight took place years ago. And you know for a fact Wonder Woman didn't die in the fight, because A) It's her book and she has main character immunity, and B) The text boxes are supposedly addressing her daughter, whom she had some hand in raising, and so far as we know this girl hasn't been born yet in the present.
So, no suspense.
The whole comic is mostly just one big fight. A series of villains come at Diana, mostly one at a time, nonstop.

Diana pushes herself to the limit as she’s forced to take on the combined efforts of Giganta, Circe, Silver Swan, Dr Psycho, and Darkseid’s daughter Grail.
This wraps up the outlaw arc and is probably my favorite issue from king’s run thus far. Excellent action and even though you can predict what will happen thanks to our overly wordy narrator it does not take away from the feats Diana performs here. She gets put through the wringer here and yet retains what makes her Wonder Woman.

4.5 stars. Not sure why the Wonder Girls were so involved in the last issue only to not show up at all here? Weird. Other than that this was fantastic. Great action. The panels of Giganta coming from the ground were really cool. This was intense and just a really fantastic read.

A meaty issue with quality art depicting Wonder Woman and the gruelling obstacles tossed her way.
