Wonder Woman #3 - DC


This book really holds some huge potential and promise. It's written by Allen Heinberg, with art by Terry and Rachel Dodson. And it is just all around perfection. We've been trying to nail down who is going to be Wonder Woman. As Diana states in this issue, "I never called myself . . . Wonder Woman. The press did. She's an idea. A symbol. She's not me." So who's going to take up the mantle of "Wonder Woman". Will it be Cassandra, Donna, maybe Diana. Well at the end of this issue, it's Circe. She claims that she's a hero of women. As Wonder Woman should be. But, "you were to busy being a superhero to be their champion". And as she take all the Amazonian power, from our three amazing women, she tells Diana, "Now your not even a superhero. You're pretending to be human. Well guess what? Now you don't have to pretend." So it appears that this was Circe's intention all along. Apparently that's why she enlisted the aid of the other villains. But the question now is, what is she going to do with that power? And what is Hercules going to do about it? Anybody who was worried about this living up to George Perez's or Phil Jiminez's run, needn't worry any more.
