Oh, this one I adored!!!

I am really intrigued about this take on Barbara Ann Minerva. I liked the whole aspect of it and her curse, I think it's going to go down to Diana betraying her somehow and I'm loving it.

Great art and a sympathic tone, this Wonder Woman series has grown on me. I'm interested in the two coin storytelling model they have adapted with Diana. The character never really interested me but I'm into this in a big way. Cheetah is a flawed soul and Diana grows as a character here in such a big way.

The Wonder Woman storyline in rebirth has still had me on the edge , while there's obvious potential to where this story is headed and how impactful it might become the fact that until this point nothing major has happened and the story still keeps going around in circle as Diana tries to find her way back home . This issue similar to previous ones still hasn't revealed anything about the main plot going on here instead we had the Diana interaction with Cheetah which was riddled with awkward exchanges between the two that sometime left me more than a bit confused .

The only saving graces for the series so far has been the art Liam Sharp & Paulo Siquera (hopefully i spelled it correctly) keep the art at it's peak and just like when the series started the art just is breathtaking and almost feel to be jumping to life . Here's hoping future issues sees Greg Rucka bring his A game to the table matching the brilliance of Liam Sharp and Paulo's art

Greg Rucka -gets- Wonder Woman, and he continues to show it. Every single moment of hers is just beautifully written, and I love her equal strength and kindness. Meanwhile, Sharp continues to deliver completely stunning art--perhaps the biggest standout of the whole Rebirth line so far, in the way that Capullo was for N52.

My only complaint is that this storyline only comes out once a month, and considering the Year One story is equally as amazing, a part of me wishes both could be twice-monthly, though I understand the art would probably suffer, so I'm glad that's not the case.

En este tomo volvemos a la zona temporal del primero, la parte "actual" frente al pasado y inicios de ww que se nos presentaba en el segundo tomo y que deduzco se irá salteando con este (cosa que me gusta).

Me ha gustado bastante este contacto con ww, creo que vemos un poco mejor como es ella, así como la aparición de un nuevo personaje, una amiga de diana que ha sido convertida en una especie de tigre(?) por medio de una maldición, por lo que aprovecha la necesidad de ayuda de ww para pedirle que le ayude a ella también a volver a ser quién era. Me he quedado con ganas de saber más sobre ella, cosa que espero que pase en el quinto tomo y me gustaría conocer la historia y el cómo ha llegado a convertirse en lo que es ahora.

The story is moving along and I'm liking it. I liked that it had a lot of Cheetah in it because I didn't know much about her. I'm excited to see where this goes. I also like that Steve Trevor is in this too and his part of the story is pretty interesting. Can't wait until their paths cross. Mostly I want to see what their going do with Wonder Woman's timeline and backstory. Like I have so many questions. So many.

A much better issue than the past couple have been.

Diana makes a promise to a friend and Steve walks into a trap.

The storyline is Evolving and I love it.
I liked how they wrote the origin story of Wonder Woman.

Wonder Woman can no longer access Olympus and has forgotten the way to Themyscira. She travels to Bwunda seeking the help of Cheetah, but Cheetah has her own problems. Meanwhile, Steve Trevor and his squad are also in Bwunda tracking down a warlord who's taking women from around the country. His mission may cross paths with Wonder Woman and Cheetah, if he can survive that long.

The jungles of Bwunda are very dark and moody as drawn by Liam Sharp. This place is downright scary! But as terrifying as the landscape is, Sharp's art also brings through the soft side of friendship and affection between Wonder Woman and Cheetah, as well as the comradery that is felt between the soldiers in Trevor's unit. Sharp has such a knack for facial expression and mood and he gets to bring all of it to bear in this issue. From subtle eyelines to broad action sequences to panoramic vistas, Sharp does it all in this issue. The art is just amazing.

Rucka's dialogue and pacing are truly brought to life by Sharp's artwork. This is a great team that works well together and the story shines because of it. This is a great union where everything comes together in a story that's full of intrigue, action, and emotion. It's not always easy to pull that off in about 20 pages, but this is a great example of precision in storytelling. Rucka and Sharp combine to make this issue fantastic.

There's a lot of core Wonder Woman in this issue. She uses love to combat hate and fear. She expounds friendship over conflict and uses her empathy to begin to win over the caustic Cheetah. I feel that not every writer gets the core of what makes Wonder Woman special, but Rucka illustrates these things so well this issue.

This might be one of my favorite issues of Wonder Woman ever. That's saying a lot because I really loved the Legend of Wonder Woman series by Renae De Liz! This one is worth reading for every comic fan out there.

Cheetah AKA Barbara . I love this it demostrated the friend and enemy connection of this characters and , in my point of view the story is well written and the illustrations are amazing just that in some part of the dialogues lack of information or detaills.

[Liv · Rating 3 out of 5]

Some of the stripes storylines were a little confusing in this one. I hope they explain it in the next instalment.

Thanks to the illustration work, you can really sense how emotional Cheetah is when Wonder Woman says they're still friends.

[Steven · Rating 5 out of 5]

Love it!

Just like the other books in this series, excellent storyline and artwork. What more can I say. It's Wonder Woman!

[Nicole · Rating 3 out of 5]

2.5 stars. I've given this 3 issues and I just...don't care. The artwork is great but the story has not grabbed my attention at all unfortunately. Read this free with Comixology Unlimited.

En este volumen aún no sé como se llama en realidad vemos a una ww más humana. Al ver su amiga creo que es su amiga, al menos eso he deducido que quiere hacer algo que en realidad no quiere pero una fuerza mayor la obliga. Ww ayuda a su amiga y no la deja de lado, vemos como lucha con ella porque quiere ayudarla y porque le importa. Me ha gustado mucho ver esa parte más humana de ww. Lo digo porque normalmente a los superhéroes se les ve muy perfectos y no parecen humanas, y cuando sacan su parte más humana y emocional ves que son reales.

Si no tengo mal entendido si sois expertos en cómics ayudadme que solo soy una principiante perdida ante este gran mucho de cómics se explica el pasado y el futuro, para que luego se unan y todo tenga sentido. Esta es mi teoría y por ahora no va mal la cosa. Espero que todo tenga sentido al final porque hay cosas sueltas que me sorprenden, que no comentaré para no hacer spoiler, que espero que nos expliquen más adelante.

Por cierto, no tengo mucha idea de si el dibujo es bueno o no, porque como ya he dicho antes soy principiante en esto de los cómics, pero creo que es bastante bueno y muy realistas. Algunas escenas me ha sorprendido de los bien dibujadas que están con un montón de detalles.

I am loving the fantasy feel of these books.

[Marisa Carpico · Rating 4 out of 5]

Wow, this was really homoerotic and felt like really old school WW. Still profoundly uninterested in the Steve Trevor subplot, but doubt it's going away anytime soon. Will admit that he seems like an upstanding guy though so at least there's that. Really intrigued to see what Rucka does with Cheetah.

[Patrick · Rating 4 out of 5]

Great chapter 2 to Lies. Here Rucka begins to explore the dynamic between Diana and Cheetah. While much is stated in broad strokes, it his strategically. Well written.

[Phil Bova · Rating 5 out of 5]

The art is incredible!! Wow. This is gonna be a fantastic run.

[Kevin A Bush · Rating 5 out of 5]

Love it

Never read much of Wonder Woman until rebirth but I am hooked on the story. Wonder Woman is very bad ass!

[Vincent Stoessel · Rating 5 out of 5]

My only complaint is that is was so short, but it's like Wonder Woman in a Frazetta universe. Liam's art is great.
