The story was good, but I don’t think it was adapted well. The graphic novel kept skipping parts and throwing you into the middle of new scenes with no transition or context.

I'm disappointed. It was slow at times and it bothered me how some things that take place or are said later in the book happened rather early in the graphic novel. I mean, it's a pretty good adaptation, but I found the novel to be way more interesting and entertaining. I enjoyed the art, though.

DC Ink continues their hot streak. The conclusion is super convenient (why has no one in thousands of years undertaken such a simple cure?), but the chase itself is fun and the characters are likable. The art's solid, but I wasn't as in love with the coloring this time around. It was a little too heavy on the blue tones.

It was a fun read. I like graphic novels with action scenes and this delivered. Though I do wish I'd read the novel version first as at places you feel the story is being rushed. The artwork is good but I wish they'd used different color palette, it felt a lil too drab. All in a all good entertainment.

(Thanks to Edelweiss and PRH for the ARC) This was a rollicking good time, full of feminist baddassery and an unexpected villain. Of course Leigh Bardugo would write a great origin story and coming of age adventure for Wonder Woman. Pure fun.

It's clearly been adapted from a novel as the pacing is WAY TOO FAST but it was a lot of fun! I liked it! Illustrations were beautiful and a bit confusing at times, but I enjoyed them the most. Plot was okay, would be much better as a novel (which I'm now totally going to pick up). Feels like this would be a great read AFTER reading the novel rather than before.

Me gustó mucho la historia y no negare que me desvelé leyendolo :)
Por ahí se pone denso con los nombres legendarios que la heptonosecuanto y se hace medio una ensalada. Aunque eso depende del nivel de mitología griega que el lector maneje :)
Me encantaron las ilustraciones y los personajes femeninos, no solamente Diana, Nim y Alia son geniales

This was a good adaptation of the prose novel, but it wasn't quite as cohesive of a story due to the truncated plot.
