One of the few good Wonder Woman books to come out in the last few years.

Jimenez's art remains the highlight. Still as detailed and easy to follow as ever, he knows just how to draw characters to make them appear both real and other-worldly. There's a small section at the beginning and a small story at the end that are drawn by others, but the switch in art does not detract from the story.Story-wise, it's a shame the series had to tie in with a crossover, but there's still some good work here. The first three chapters all tie in to a big event called "Our Worlds at W...

Much less interesting than the previous volume.

Interesting read but I think I will look for more modern Wonder Woman comics.

Supposed to be a follow up to Wonder Woman: Paradise Lost. It starts out that way, at least. And then the middle section of the book is entirely taken over by what I presume to have been part of a big crossover event I'm not familiar with. Poor Jimenez did an admirable job of trying to get the reader up to speed, but honestly, I was lost. The death of Hippolyta was so narratively necessary (she'd been written into an unpleasant corner) that it hardly comes by a surprise, and I give Jimenez credi...

The Witch and the Warrior story had so many characters that I could not follow everything that happened. But I did like the fight between Diana and Superman.

Though the cover is complete crap, the book itself is not that bad. Is it on par with 'Paradise Lost'? No. The first story is rather silly--but its great stuff if you're a Wonder Woman fan...Circe appears again, with a male Cheetah. The concept of a male Cheetah is pretty hot [hat tip to Jimenez, and even though I tire of seeing Circe as a villain in WW comics--she really is the only one who could possibly get away with making a 'male Cheetah'! The main bulk of the book is the 'Her Mother's Daug...

This graphic novel feels a little less fluid then previous ones. I feel like it's the jumps in story and not every part is as well presented or written as the others in this book are. I also feel like there is the loose end of exactly what ends up happening with the Silver Swan. But I still enjoyed it, especially the Paradise Found and the Witch and the Warrior.

Pretty awesome. Basically this story takes the events that happened with Our Worlds At War and in particular the loss of Themiscyra. As the city is lost and events lead up to the eventual reformation of the Amazons.All things considered this had some flaws as well as some pretty good things too. That ending was pretty great, I just wish the rest of the story could have been better.B

Here is the exact example of why DC Comics fell far behind Marvel in the late 90s-early 2000s. The previous collection was a great starting point into Wonder Woman’s world. We were seeing new takes on old villains. We saw a great supporting cast with some superb family issues. This collection started that way and then suddenly you are thrown in the middle of DC wide event involving Imperiex. The whole story goes off the rails. We see an obvious death, random fights, bizarre guest appearances, an...

So, this volume follows after "Paradise Lost" but feels a lot more scattered (as opposed to "Paradise Lost" was the "Gods of Gotham" arc and then a Themyscira arc).#171 "Bird of Prey" -- we get a Silver Swan reincarnation, which I was interested in -- and which never gets fully resolved in this collection :/ #172 "Her Mother's Daughter" -- we're thrust into some giant crossover event, which apparently is the "Our Worlds At War" arc, I gleaned from skimming GR reviews.I remain not really that in...

I hate to give such a low rating to this book, which the writers and artists obviously put a lot of work into. The problem is this story just doesn't work well in the visual medium of comic books.This book is extremely wordy. It seems like half the book is dialogue, characters talking endlessly to each other where the emotion and plot should have been expressed through pictures. And speaking of pictures, there were way, way too many panels per page in this book, which made the story drag. When y...

3.5 stars. This was one of those comics that I kept going back and forth in regards to my enjoyment of it. In the end I liked more than I disliked from this.

Great story, Wonder Woman at her finest!

2.5*

The main reason to read this is Jimenez's art. It's gorgeous, with lush detail. At this point Jimenez may have surpassed his mentor, George Perez. The Our Worlds at War issues can be hard to follow if you haven't read the rest of the story elsewhere. You get dumped right into the middle of it with little explanation in these issues, yet Wonder Woman's world is affected tremendously by the outcome. The latter story The Witch and the Warrior works much better. Circe and her cronies have taken over...

Another masterpiece by writer/artist Phil Jimenez, “Paradise Found” contains two great tissues (#172 and 173) of Wonder Woman. Vanessa Kapatelis, a child who adored Diana, has been transformed into the latest incarnation of the Silver Swan by the witch Circe (yes, the same one from Homer’s Odyssey). Diana, meanwhile, frets that her mother, Hippolyta, is spending too much time away from Themyscira and appears to be taking over her mantle as Wonder Woman. Readers will remember that Golden Age Wond...

Paradise Found is marred by the intrusion of Our Worlds at War crossover event, which is a bit strange to say, as what happens to Diana and her fellow Amazons is at the heart of this story. But the impact of those developments is a bit diluted because Jimenez has to continually recap what happened in other books so that the reader can place the events of WW’s book in context.Outside of that event, Jimenez sets up a conflict between Diana, Circe, the new Cheetah (Sebastian Bellasteros), and the n...

The majority of this volume is a lot of rather bewildering pages of dozens upon dozens of unrelated heroes and villains battling it out - the typical structure of an early-2000s DC event issue, not unlike Infinite Crisis, in which panels are just filled with characters, leaving little room for either storytelling, or even the basics of positioning the reader properly in 3D space. Which, to be fair, can be spellbinding - it's not exactly a small feat, to create these vast, packed images of immacu...

I ultimately have little good to say about this collection, after what was a Paradise Lost with some okay stuff happening. Instead, this is mostly disjointed action with little coherence or anything to enjoy. The final issue/chapter, the rebuilding of Themyscria, was actually pretty good, but combined with the rest of the book? A rather massive miss for me on a whole.
