This is not Wonder Woman as you know her. In fact, there is little to like about Diana in this origin story. She is a bratty kid who always wants to be the best and be worshiped and adored. Until, she meets a girl she can not win over with money, only with good deeds. In the ultimate act to garner attention, Diana lets out horrors that destroy her community, and her place in it.

Wonderfully done. A beautiful graphic novel. Except for the title page, Wonder Woman is not mentioned once. It a story of a girl growing up and finding love in the only place it is not readily offered. There are many historians who theorize that the Amazons were a lesbian race, and you can take from this book what you will. Love in general is the focus of this story. But if that holds you back, then that is your prerogative. I anxiously await the further adventures. I want to see redemption, but that may be a long time coming.
