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

4.0

I received a free copy from the publisher through NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.

I ABSOLUTELY loved this until the following happened:
-Diana used "girl" as an insult. Which especially coming from her is just WRONG.
-Diana fat-shamed a woman. Who in turn totally stood up for herself and her body, which was awesome. Still, I was disappointed in Diana's character in this instance.

Apart from those two instances, which I totally need to call out and acknowledge, I FREAKING LOVED THIS. I love Wonder Woman's character, I loved Paradise Island. I really liked Captain Trevor, and BETH IS THE MOST PRECIOUS THING. I LOVE HER. She's a feminist woman calling out the patriarchy in a comic book, and it is NOT portrayed as a negative thing. GO YOU, Beth Candy. I loved Captain Trevor's calling out racism and slave trade, trying to make Diana's mother understand he's on their side. I loved Diana's obvious interest in both genders and I hope for her to be canonically bisexual as this series progresses. Definitely recommend this!

Wonder Woman: Earth One Vol. 1 comes out April 12.
