This was a quick and easy read which focussed on diverse aspects of the history of Wonder Adult female.

Not that there's anything wrong with that, I don't think.

This was a quick and piece of cake read which focussed on various aspects of the history of Wonder Woman. This was a good introduction to the character, especially for someone like me who only was properly introduced to the character via the Gal Gadot film. Not that at that place's anything wrong with that, I don't think. I suppose nosotros all accept to start somewhere, and I really loved that film (because of the storyline, and because of Gal Gadot and Chris Pino.)

Of course, I already knew of Wonder Woman, at to the lowest degree peripherally, and of Linda Carter's appearance as the graphic symbol in the Tv set serial. (although I never truly watched the show every bit a wee dragonet. I really don't know why, though!) As such, I learnt a lot from this book (although obviously this was written before Gal Gadot became Wonder Adult female). Information technology didn't mention the Television receiver prove, still, although I feel it didn't lack the omission. I loved delving into the background of the character and the various styles of artwork were truly beautiful. All in all, I'k glad I read this book (I actually received this for my birthday recently.) I also feel I understand the recent flick too a little more (and of course, Gal Gadot fabricated a grrrrreat Wonder Adult female! ;D As of course did Linda Carter!) This is something I'll exist enjoying again in the time to come.

"Wonder Woman: The Ultimate Guide to the Amazon Princess" was an interesting and informative "dossier" of Wonder Woman in the comics. This volume helped me realized that I am a fan of Lynda Carter's Wonder Adult female, rather than how she is depicted in the comics. Perhap, I merely need to re-familiarize myself with the Wonder Woman comics. That is...if I can sort out all these timelines. If Marvel has numerous timelines, I'm sure that DC is no dissimilar.

"Wonder Adult female: The Ultimate Guide to the Amazon Princess" was an interesting and informative "dossier" of Wonder Woman in the comics. This book helped me realized that I am a fan of Lynda Carter's Wonder Woman, rather than how she is depicted in the comics. Perhap, I just need to re-familiarize myself with the Wonder Woman comics. That is...if I can sort out all these timelines. If Curiosity has numerous timelines, I'one thousand sure that DC is no different.

I did larn a few things about Wonder Adult female. For example, I knew nigh her invisible jet but I did not know about her other invisible modes of transportation. Her array of weapons were fascinating every bit well. Of form, I was shocked to learn that Queen Hippolyta was once Wonder Adult female. However, I was disappointed that Nubia, Diana's twin sister was not mentioned (other than a listing in the dorsum). At that place were just then many things that I learned about Wonder Adult female, despite the fact that I claimed her to be one of my favorite superheroines.

Yet, at that place were a few tidbits that I constitute confusing. For example, Diana Trevor crashing and dying on Paradise Island. Information technology is said that Princess Diana was named after Trevor. But wait a minute! Wasn't she already named Diana?!? The whole Diana Trevor was something new and confusing because most of us know about Steve Trevor crashing on Paradise Isle. Again, was this from a different timeline?

Overall, I found the book to exist interesting even though some info can be confusing. I did find some of Wonder Adult female'southward villians to be comical. An case...Egg Fu?

Of course, there were some info that I wished were included in the book. The TV show, Wonder Woman, starring Lynda Carter. At that place was no mention of the Boob tube show impacting the comics. Was the transformation (spinning) a result of the tv evidence? Or was that before? There were no mention of the cartoons. I guess the comics were the sole focus of this book. Also, I wished that the volume had included Curiosity's version of Wonder Woman. I wished that the book had included the fusion of Wonder Adult female and Storm, Amazon.

The best feature of this entire book was seeing the evolution of Wonder Woman. Her compatible has changed. Her powers accept increased. Her condition has elevated. She is indeed Wonder Woman!

I actually enjoyed how Scott Beatty started from the very start of Wonder Adult female's story by laying the groundwork from Hippolyta's story based off of the murder of the cavewoman. I too idea it was really corking that he included short profiles of Wonder Woman's main enemies and closest friends including members of the JLA. I definitely was enthralled with the different ages of Wonder Woman and how each time someone else stepped in her shoes they tried to embody her ideals and goals to the bes I really enjoyed how Scott Beatty started from the very starting time of Wonder Adult female's story by laying the groundwork from Hippolyta's story based off of the murder of the cavewoman. I also thought information technology was really great that he included brusque profiles of Wonder Adult female's principal enemies and closest friends including members of the JLA. I definitely was enthralled with the different ages of Wonder Woman and how each time someone else stepped in her shoes they tried to embody her ideals and goals to the all-time of their abilities. I besides liked how she was named subsequently Diana Trevor the female pilot who lost her life defending the Amazons at Themyscira. Scott Beatty did a great chore in bringing all the aspects of Wonder Woman's life in comics into a graphic novel format that helps to introduce novices to the format itself but to Wonder Adult female as well. I definitely recommend this to anyone who wants to know more about Wonder Woman. ...more than

An interesting glimpse into the history of Wonder Woman including sections on the various incarnations (Diana, Hippolyta and Artemis), her friends, her enemies and many of the major story lines. All of these are washed in a very comic book way. The stop of the volume has a brief synopsis of every issue. Very interesting.

Chronicles of Han Storm Book Club Read (Confusing!)

Probably intended for children, this is a Comicon book relating the Biography of Wonder Women. An excellent visually enhanced read for children of all ages from 10 to 90!

If you are a comic freak - this book will exist an asset to your collection.
