Wonder Woman: Earth One, Vol. 1 by Grant Morrison

3.0

From what I can gather, this was a homage to the original Wonder Woman origins which called back to the Wonder Woman of William Moulton Marston aka Charles Moulton (pen name). A bit overly reliant on the use of bondage and submissive undertones (so much kneeling) for my tastes. My main issue with the book, however, was the lack of surprises or originality in the plot. There were some minor changes made to the established characters that I enjoyed. Diana having a female lover and Steve Trevor not being the typical blue-eyed milk toast he usually is depicted as was a welcome change. The art and color palette were very aesthetically pleasing and the detailed backgrounds really aided in the storytelling. Not my favorite costume design but it did give homage to the classic W.W. aesthetic so I can't fault the stylistic choices made.
