I didn't think it was boring, but probably overcomplicated as the story went straight to hell. Initially, I thought we would spend several issues here, but I glad to see that wasn't the case. It was a really quick read, and there wasn't much substance to it, but rather a hint to things to come like Hades and Wonder Woman's confrontation with Cerberus.



Kramer's work of the souls trapped on this side of the Styx was defiinitely cool. And I would agree that this issue didn't advance the storyline, which is disappointing because the story was moving along at a pretty good pace. Hopefully things will get back on track in the next issue.





Interesting review of the issue and better comments below it. I wouldn't say it's a classic hero's quest, but it's working towards it.

The Vitruvian (Wonder) Woman. I like it. I hope this signifies answers and background information.

Red "X" for me.

That's okay. I could wait until I come across the cover.

JMS' Wonder Woman gets fill in?

I've become desentized to JMS books getting delayed

Old Dog never learns new tricks

I guess this is the point where I say that I am disappointed in his run on Wonder Woman which so far has failed to hook me in. I have even contemplated dropping this book because just has not been good from a story stand point. Just because JMS is on the cover doesn't mean I will love it no matter what, it just means I will give him the benefit of the doubt when he writes something.

Not every JMS book is good. Dream Police was boring, Bullet Points was pointless, Amazing Spider-Man had its low points, Rising Stars suffered from the many artist changes.

But when he hits, he knocks it out of the park. Midnight Nation. Supreme Power. Book of Lost Souls. Silver Surfer: Requiem. Fantastic Four. The Twelve (so far). The majority of Amazing Spider-Man. And let's not forget that the best Twilight Zone episodes from the 80s series were written by him.

All of which makes Bruce an idiot when he claims that JMS is such a dreadful writer, blah blah.

Yes, Wonder Woman takes some time. But enough people like it.

Enough people? Its getting the same amount of sales as Simone did in her final issues, and worse reviews.

I read the Wonder Woman #606 and it was another nearly flat line issue. The only pulse of intrigue I found in this issue occurred when Diana found action figures of her in the traditional Wonder Woman gear and questioned the meaning of it. Other than that, I feel the Greek mythos are enhancing the WW character or comic book.

Really? I actually thought the last two issues (since JMS left) have been a improvement over the initial arc.

Well, I do like the attempt to create some real arch nemesis for Wonder with the Morrigan. However, that has yet to materialize. Right now, it's going through the set up process.
