Wonder Woman, Volume 2: Year One
by Greg Rucka
In my review of Vol 1 I said the story was a little confusing as Wonder Woman herself was trying to merge the various storylines and find who she really was, which version was real. Well, then be prepared to go back in time, and once again read her origin story.
On an isle of only woman a plane crashes and brings forth it’s first man, Steve. Diana, as she is known in her world, is sent from her world to return Steve and the bodies of his comrades to his home. She is also sent to be the defender of Steve’s people. We see her first battles, and grow with her as she discovers her powers.
While much of the story seems like a new dose of the same cough medicine, there are new parts to love and hate. It brings the timeline forward to a world of guns, explosives, and suicide bombers. But it leaves behind the invisible plane and instead gives WW the ability to fly. I don’t care for this aspect of her powers, but overall I like the direction of the new story line so far. We shall see if this keeps up for Vol 3.
