Wonder Woman #4: cover art by Cliff Chiang |
This comic has been utterly amazing. I think it's one of the best comics to come out of the DC reboot. Actually, after this last issue, I'd rate it tops of the 52. What's amazing is that the first arc (which ended with No. 4) has been mostly set-up. You're introduced to the new version of the gods, you meet some of the more important players and you learn about Diana and where she comes from. You also get the beginning premise which will drive the main story from here on out. Plus, they do it in a way that delivers powerful emotions. Brian Azzarello (writer), Cliff Chiang (artist), and Matthew Wilson (colorist) are doing incrdible things with this comic and the way they work as a team is really unparalleled.
I think I'll end up doing a few more posts on this one. It's just so intelligent and elegant. Not a word is wasted and the information that it presents, with no exposition, is at times staggering.
