Summary

In honor of Wonder Woman’s 80th anniversary, DC proudly presents a new anthology series starring the Amazon Princess—embellished in the color of her famous lasso!

In the tradition of Batman Black and White, Wonder Woman Black and Gold is a thrilling anthology celebrating the woman who inspires us all…and that’s the truth!

Kicking things off, John Arcudi (B。P。R。D。) and Ryan Sook (Legion of Super-Heroes) reunite to show us the grace immortality grants a hero。 Becky Cloonan (Wonder Woman) weaves a spine-tingling tale of Diana’s most precious weapon against the darkness。 Then Amy Reeder (Amethyst) takes us back to the Golden Age for a fun romp co-starring Etta Candy。 AJ Mendez and Ming Doyle (Constantine: The Hellblazer) travel to Themyscira for a tense family reunion。 And finally, Nadia Shammas and Morgan Beem (Swamp Thing: Twin Branches) show us a story of Diana’s past failures coming back to haunt her。 And that’s just the beginning, with this all-star anthology featuring unique stories by Mariko Tamaki, Tillie Walden, Jamie McKelvie, Marguerite Sauvage, and more!

Wonder Woman short stories only using black, white and gold。Mother's Daughter by AJ Mendez & Ming Doyle - ★This was terrible and didn't make much sense。 Diana returns home to see Queen Hippolyta who is now living in the suburbs and lies and guilt trips Diana。 Makes no use of the color palette at all。 Oof, this is bad。What Doesn't Kill You by Nadia Shammas & Morgan Beem - ★★Ug, another stinker。 Diana is confronted by former foes。 I've never cared for Beem's art but she makes great use of the gold Wonder Woman short stories only using black, white and gold。Mother's Daughter by AJ Mendez & Ming Doyle - ★This was terrible and didn't make much sense。 Diana returns home to see Queen Hippolyta who is now living in the suburbs and lies and guilt trips Diana。 Makes no use of the color palette at all。 Oof, this is bad。What Doesn't Kill You by Nadia Shammas & Morgan Beem - ★★Ug, another stinker。 Diana is confronted by former foes。 I've never cared for Beem's art but she makes great use of the gold color palette。 I'm Ageless by John Arcudi & Ryan Sook - ★★★★★A story about how Diana views humans given her immortality after being confronted by Batman。 This was terrific。 Ryan Sook is a top notch artist。 He actually knows how to draw in black and white。 There is plenty of gray shading making this look like a black and white drawing instead of basic pencil and ink drawings。Golden Age by Amy Reeder - ★★★Wonder Woman goes retro stopping a bank robbery in 1948。The Wager by Becky Cloonan - ★★★★Wonder Woman tells the story of how her lasso was made from the Golden Fleece。 She also talks to a suspect about how those exposed to the lasso and the truth about themselves often can't live with themselves afterwards。 I really liked this。Without Love by Mariko Tamaki & Jamie McKelvie - ★★★★Eros rips his own heart out removing love from humanity。 McKelvie has the best use of gold so far。 The comic is in complete black and white until love reenters the universe then the panels get nice golden tones。A God with No Name by Che Grayson & Corin Howell - ★★★Plays off of Brian Azzarello and Cliff Chiang's New 52 Wonder Woman run as the God with No Name plagues Themyscira。 Homecoming by Tillie Walden & Jordie Bellaire - ★Diana has a dream of floating through Themyscira。 Just pointless。 Zero story。A Common Motivator by Stephanie Williams & Ashley A。 Woods - ★★Diana and Nubia team up against Artemis's team on an obstacle course。 The art is rudimentary and static。The Acquaintance by Rachel Smythe - ★★Wonder Woman and Circe chit chat until Circe gives Diana the person she came to save back。We Built a New World by Janet Harvey & Megan Levins - ★★★★A nice little story recapping Diana leaving the island to be with Steve Trevor。 Quite nice。Espionage by Robert Venditti & Steve Epting - ★★★★★A terrific story sit in the Diana Prince era when Diana was a spy。 She's been captured and is being interrogated。 Great stuff!Beat the Heat by Paula Sevenbergen, Inaki Miranda & Eva de la Cruz - ★★A story about the Earth spinning out of its orbit due to climate change。 It's clumsy and heavy-handed, let alone doesn't make any sense。 At one point, Wonder Woman lassos the sun in order to move it。 Inaki Miranda's art is swell though。Do No Harm by Nnedi Okorafor & Jack T。 Cole - ★Wonder Woman is called to play diplomat to some aliens。 None of this really made any sense and the art is not very good。The Stolen Lasso of Truth by Aimee Garcia & Sebastian Fiumara - ★★This was stupid。 Wonder Woman flies off and drops her lasso。 A teenage girl picks it up and proceeds to lasso everyone at her school to get them to tell the truth。 As if everyone would just stand there and let this girl lasso them。 It's also not plausible that Wonder Woman would just drop the lasso and not notice it was gone。Prayer by Andrew Constant, Nicola Scott & Annette Kwok - ★★★★Wonder Woman lays a griffin to rest。 She sets fire to the lasso which I don't remember her ever doing before。 Nicola Scott's art is just gorgeous。Amazing by Paul Azaceta - ★★★Wonder Woman saves some kids that were endangered while she fought Giganta。Whatever Happened to Cathy Perkins? by Sina Grace & Leonardo Romero - ★★Wonder Woman meets someone from the time she was depowered in the 70's。 It requires way too much knowledge of what happened during that era to enjoy。Love Failed by Andrew MacLean - ★Really bad。 Diana's friend joins a cult run by some thing with hypnotic powers。 Totally incoherent。 Instead of making good use of the gold part of the theme, MacLean painted each page almost completely orange。 It made the art really difficult to follow。Wing Woman by Sherry L。 Smith & Colleen Doran - ★★★The story looks great。 It's about a woman pilot during World War transporting a plane when she's attacked by a German jet。 Wonder Woman shows up to save her。Hellzapoppin' by Peter Tomasi, Christian Alamy & John Kalisz - ★★★Wonder Woman descends into the Underworld to rescue Hephaestus fighting demons the entire way。 The art is almost too detailed for a black and white comic。 It made it hard for anything to stand out and for the eye to focus on。 Beyond the Horizon by Sanya Anwar - ★★★★Princess Diana has to solve the problem of a ghost destroying ships off the coast of Themyscira。How the Wonder Woman Was Bought Low by a Mouse but Caught the Stars by Kurt Busiek & Benjamin Dewey - ★★★★Kurt Busiek whips out the obscure villains for this story that focuses on Dr。 Cyber, Mouse Man and Fireworks Man。 Yeah, they are real。 I looked them up。 Dewey's art is terrific。Feet of Clay by Josie Campbell & Carlos D'Anda - ★★★★A story about General Phillippa who wanted only to live alone and wanted no part in training the Clay-Thing。 These are the kinds of surprises I like to find in anthologies like this。Memories of Hator by Trung Le Nguyen - ★Some big long diatribe about the morality of archaeology。 All of the women in the story looked like little girls making it difficult to tell when an actual little girl appeared in the story。Role Model by Marguerite Sauvage - ★★★★A story about how Wonder Woman inspires women from a young age to be their best, to make a difference in the world。The Prophet by Liam Sharp - ★★Hmm, sounds like Liam Sharp is actually talking about a dream he had。 He does insert himself into the story, talking to his therapist about a dream he had were Wonder Woman was fighting this barbarian Amazon。A Lesson in Truth by Michael W。 Conrad & Noah Bailey - ★★A man takes a family hostage so that he can meet Wonder Woman and talk about how she saved him as a child。Attack of the 50-Foot Wonder Woman by Christos Gage, Kevin Maguire & Adriano Lucas - ★★★★Wonder Woman switches powers with Giganta。 The problem is the larger Wonder Woman is, the lower her intellect becomes, leaving her a 50 ft。 mindless beast。Fresh Air in Philly by Dr。 Sheena Howard &Jamal Campbell - ★★★Poseidon is punishing humans for polluting the Earth, leaving Wonder Woman and Nubia to no choice but to fight him。 Jamal Campbell's art is excellent。 。。。more

A fantastic Wonder Woman anthology。 While I enjoyed some stories less than others, the ones that stood out really left an impression。 Would highly recommend。

Viele Kurzgeschichten。 Nicht alle gut, vor allem nicht viele gut gezeichnet。

Wonder Woman Black & Gold Ideally, a 3。5 rating。A charming collection of short stories from the grand mythos of Wonder Woman, circling the nature of mankind and our efforts to preserve it。 The weight of death, the sanctity of life, the granular spill of time and how our steps on this Earth are felt through the ages ; the sparkle of hope, and the importance of what we do with it。As with any anthologically structured series there are some hits and misses。 Some that resonate with me, and some th Wonder Woman Black & Gold Ideally, a 3。5 rating。A charming collection of short stories from the grand mythos of Wonder Woman, circling the nature of mankind and our efforts to preserve it。 The weight of death, the sanctity of life, the granular spill of time and how our steps on this Earth are felt through the ages ; the sparkle of hope, and the importance of what we do with it。As with any anthologically structured series there are some hits and misses。 Some that resonate with me, and some that do not。 Above all, however, each of these individual stories possess heart and clear love for the character and what she represents。 They do her justice。 You feel Diana's compassion, her love, her rage, her defiance, her fears, her persistence, her inspiring touch, all through shades of black and gold that appropriately emphasize wonder。 With a healthy variety of mythological settings and circumstance, there's a neat bundle of concepts tossed in here and shook about, with all the sensation of a bicolored snow globe。 Not all stories enchant, or feel potent enough to cheer for, but they are, for the most part, endearing。Perhaps my favorite of the lot, an earnest little story by name of 'Amazing' within issue 4, in which a little girl dresses up as Batman and flaps around the house annoying her brother。 The curse of the cowl rings true and thunderous footsteps crunch on the concrete outside her imaginary play world。 Giganta fends off Wonder Woman, clumsily stomping around, in a noticeably monochrome sequence where the only coloring is that of Wonder Womans personal effects, a beacon of light in the world。 By the end of it, the little girl playing imaginary is thrust into the world of real superheroes and supervillains, is rescued by Wonder Woman herself, and bravely holds the lasso of truth tight as Giganta is subdued and tied up。 The little girl marvels on, removing her cowl, revealing a bright head of golden hair - there's a little of Wonder Woman in all of us。 。。。more

Storie da 8 pagine。 Vari team di autori e disegnatori。Nel complesso, qualche storia interessante c'è。La tricromia è carina, ma in alcune storie stona il troppo giallo。 Storie da 8 pagine。 Vari team di autori e disegnatori。Nel complesso, qualche storia interessante c'è。La tricromia è carina, ma in alcune storie stona il troppo giallo。 。。。more
