Wonder woman is nigh on unrecognizable, so radically is her persona altered.

Ridiculous premises, far to much crossover requiring pages of expository catch-up material, and the stupid presentation of material out of order makes for a terrible read.

A powerful story of service and responsibility in the face of competing social and moral obligations.

Once again WW shirks her duties as the God of War.

Cluttered style, stilted language, nonsense to non-existent plot, and a constant air of arrogance result in a volume with no value.

Every single Amazon is rude, entitled, and arrogant. 

Finally concluding the long war-of-gods story-line (I think)?

Every single Amazon is rude, entitled, and arrogant. 

Thumbs up for working in some of the more obscure creatures of Greek mythology, thumbs down for a muddy and unexplained ending to what was to that point a good story.

Not a volume so much as a collection of odds and ends, and mismatched ones at that - far to divergent in style and content to be enjoyably read in one sitting.

Amusing as to be expected from Jean Shepherd, circumloquacious as one expects from a collection not written but rather culled and transcribed from old radio broadcasts, and sadly obscure as the in jokes offhand references and vague descriptions imposed by broadcast regulations become less decipherable and relevant or comprehensible with the passing years.

An interesting premise - police procedural against the Battleworld backdrop - but it ends abruptly with no resolution and the final third of the book is unrelated 40 year old filler.

Overly repetitive and formulaic (which is really saying something bearing in mind that it is a kids book) but still entertaining for children.

The story-line is thin - it could have been wrapped up in two or three issues rather than engorged to seven - put it throws away any residual credit for being a normal superhero tale with the out-of-left-field statement about a Right to Love ?!? which is as stupid and insipid as it is nonsensical and irrelevant.

Well researched, well written, and highly entertaining. The first of the adventures chronologically, we find the titular hero serving in India and chafing under the deprivations of officers and non-coms alike. Offering glimpses into the day to day lives of soldiers, the political and religious instability of a little-taught region and era (at least here in the USA), and the military tactics of one of history's greatest generals at the beginning of his illustrious career (young colonel Wellesley); the book concludes helpfully and insightfully with a few pages of actual historic background to separate fact from fiction.

A deceptive, unconnected compilation. Rather than an entire build-up to the film, you get a couple issues of non-essential cinematic backstory followed by 100 pages of back-catalog filler.

Cute but forgettable, containing the expected fish out of water tropes of a student in a new school, trimmed with the trappings of star wars.          

Overly dark art, overly mis-spelled or 'hip' names, and an anti-gun theme bludgeoned into the readers head. Combine these faults with a villain who could have been interesting in his own right but as Joker 2.0 is derivative, forced, and flat, and you are left with a disappointing volume.

Once again Scalzi subverts his storytelling skills in the service of political propaganda: jamming together ethnic christian and surnames in the name of diversity, refusing to physically describe his characters, intentionally disguising minor characters gender, denigrating all forms of religion, and making bi-sexual the default setting of everyone who discusses sex.
