Loved it! Beautiful artwork and Diana’s narrative voice here is stellar. I love how emotions are shown in the eyes simply with white dots. Diana is a young teenager here, learning her mother isn’t infallible but a complex person. She also reckons with everyone’s pressure for her to become a great queen when she’s still finding herself. What if she doesn’t want to rule? What if she wants to explore?

The author sets the foundation and seedlings of how Diana will become Wonder Woman; her core beliefs and need for freedom are established here. There are also good nuggets about leadership qualities that any reader can learn from.

One thing the story acknowledges is not sweeping under a dark past/history. We must tell the full story. If things were done wrongly in the past or shameful things happened, then we must correct and acknowledge it in the present. 

The sister relationship between Hippolyta and Antiope was so good. They are constantly at a contrast in lifestyles and personalities, but they care for each other at the core.

I was never well-versed in Diana/Wonder Woman’s story, Amazonian woman, or how it connects with the Greek gods, but I enjoyed this portrayal and could keep up. I would read more Wonder Woman stories from this duo.
