The merciful end to the worst Wonder Woman story that I have ever read.

I'm still relatively new when it comes to the DC universe, so I apologize for any glaring errors. This two-volume side story caught my attention for really one reason only. PANTS. I've always enjoyed superhero stories (Batman remains my favorite) but could never get into the female characters all that much. The reason, they're mostly wearing terrible skintight bathing suits. Even if you're a superhero (of either gender) spandex is not the best material to wear for protection against bad guys wit...

The twisted take on Wonder Woman offered by J. Michael Straczynski comes to its conclusion with this second volume. Rescued from the Amazonian Cheetah, Giganta, and Artemis by Dr. Psycho, Diana learns that her history may not be what she was led to believe. Further encounters with the Fates showcase Diana as a woman divided - literally - and facing her darkest nature. Left for dead after a battle with Nemesis, the Fates weaved a separate strand of history that allowed Diana to stay uncorrupted.

Wonder Woman was never I book I read much during my formative, comic reading years. But as an adult, I enjoy this title more so than many others from that time. Perhaps it's the mythology of the Greek gods I enjoy reading about now. I am not sure. This collection is the 2nd part of a massive 14 issue story. As such, I was a little confused initially, but that quickly passed.

Liked it, didn't quite love it. Opening page of the last issue is brilliant.

More 4.5/5 stars. I really enjoyed this just as a fun, different WW story.

The second part of Odyssey is another good book, but I have to give it 2.5 stars because everything Straczynski did doesn't amount to much.The art continues to be both good and troubling. In my review of volume 1, I spelled out what I liked but also the issues I had with Diana's breast size and facial gestures: https://www.goodreads.com/review/show.... My biggest problem with this volume is the lasso continuity errors. In multiple issues, Diana is depicted for (usually) several panels without it...

The subtitle identifying this book as "Volume 2" is impossibly small on the front cover, so not only was this my first-ever Wonder Woman book but it was also the second in a series. Even with those strikes against it, this book flat out amazed me.The only thing I [thought I] knew prior to this book was that Wonder Woman was a useless super hero with a silly invisible jet, a lasso, and no super powers. I always had the impression that she was the token female and not a whole lot more.What I learn...

Intelligent and sophisticated, not often seen in a mainstream comic book. Author Straczynski continues a high note run of his comic writing career with this epic Wonder Woman adventure. Check out his Brave and Bold books and the Superman: Grounded series. All are top-notch comic book writing. I'm not a huge Wonder Woman fan, I like her, but I mostly know her from Justice League series. I've read her off and on since the 70s but never really in depth. But I must say this 2 volume series is quite

Okay, much improved! Diana's unnatural rage/revenge was directly explained, and her need to overcome it turned into the central plot point. Occasionally a little too metaphysical, maybe, but overall that was a huge relief; enjoyable and even moving at points.

Crystal's Bullet Reviews:For much of the graphic novel, I was confused, which could have been the really complicated plot or the amount of time since I read Volume 1. Also, wow, sure a lot of butt/boobs poses and buxom women. Good thing this universe is almost completely filled with sexy women.However, lots of great female characters, particularly Wonder Woman, and I liked how the story straightened out and wrapped up. Would definitely continue to seek out WW comics and other Straczynski stories...

Good conclusion. I like the use of Greek Myth in the story.

wow!WHAT A VOLUME!The confusion as to what happened to Diana and her reality is revealed here. We initially follow as she is battling the trinity of Artemis, Cheetah and Giganta and see how her reality has changed and everything and how it leads to the morrigan and what odyssey the Greek pantheon had sent her on and its the final battle of Diana and Nemesis, Goddess of Wraith and its epic and so well done!I love the way JMS takes time and makes you go through Diana's head process and everything

Well the art is the only reason this isn't a 1-star book for me.I will grant that I waited a while between Vol 1 and 2, but that's the library's fault, not mine.Unfortunately, I found this convoluted, verbose, grandiose, and altogether confusing. It really could have been boiled down to 1 TPB, and I think it would have accomplished the same thing.I suppose it's also a pointless reboot, since it's not actually much different than where we started, plus that whole New 52 thing...So I see what peop...

"I suppose you expect some sort of prophecy now? To know the will of the gods?" -- the oracle of Themyscira, who literally lives under a bridge like a troll (but certainly doesn't look like it)"I'm through asking the gods for anything. But if any should be listening in, tell them this -- I'm on my way to kill a few." -- Wonder Woman, prepared to chew bubblegum and kick assContinuing from the cliffhanger ending in Odyssey, Vol. 1, this follow-up is a nearly non-stop hyper-violent action-adventure...

Wow. The rating for this are all over the place! Re-booting Wonder Woman is evidently a very touchy subject with a lot of people.From my rating, I think it's pretty obvious that I come down of the side of Loved It! I'm one of those people who desperately wanted to see the lovely Princess Diana get an update. And like a band-aid, I think it's easier to just get it over with quickly. (view spoiler)[Using Nemesis to totally alter her reality was a great way to do that, in my opinion. (hide spoiler)...

I thought this was great. This is the Wonder Woman I wish DC Comics would of kept instead of the current new 52 version.I love the story of Diana's journey. It was very well written and had amazing art work. The only thing I did not like was Wonder Woman's costume. I didn't think it was that great.

Here is my review of volume 1. I still agree with everything I wrote. I actually liked this better than the first half of the story, because I could kind of follow the plot (no comment on how clichéd or not it happened to be). In that first volume, I went in with high expectations and found myself very disappointed; in this, my expectations were very low, and therefore much easier to exceed. A few points:* I still love her new costume* Like, favorite part of these volumes, love it* I still loath...
