4 posts | 2 read
The wait is over, and the entire story of the Amazons can finally be told! Millennia ago, Queen Hera and the goddesses of the Olympian pantheon grew greatly dissatisfied with their male counterparts...and far from their sight, they put a plan into action. A new society was born, one never before seen on Earth, capable of wondrous and terrible things...but their existence could not stay secret for long. When a despairing woman named Hippolyta crossed the Amazons' path, a series of events was set in motion that would lead to an outright war in heaven--and the creation of the Earth's greatest guardian! Legendary talents Kelly Sue DeConnick, Phil Jimenez, Gene Ha, and Nicola Scott unleash one of the most unforgettable DC tales of all time!

The characters are a bit underdeveloped, but the scale is absolutely massive. I hope De Connick gets the chance to complete her saga, as this volume includes only three of the proposed nine chapters in the story.

andreadmw Agreed. I loved this story and would like to see them be able to tell the whole thing. 3mo

Wonder Woman: Historia is a feminist Greek epic about the origin of the Amazons. The story is incredibly ambitious, and the art is gorgeous.

This book, y'all! This is war between the gods and the foundation of the Amazons. And it is freaking gorgeous and unbelievably detailed. I don't typically care for superhero comics but this isn't that. Trust Kelly Sue DeConnick to be absolutely epic. Just read it, okay?
