I'm researching feminist utopias/gynotopias so I thought this would be fun but it was boring. It was also sexist in terms of representation of women. I can understand that this is a period piece and women weren't better off back then. However, I would expect more from an alternate history retelling. We could at least have women actually talking more than the narrator, especially during and after their rise to power. Don't they have anything to say? Sometimes how we tell a story speaks more than the story itself. Oh well, at least it was short.

I'm torn about this. On one hand, deconstruction of toxic masculinity. On the other…we probably didn't need a dystopia where women are literally chained to do that. Or to have Diana be a sex slave to her husband evil!Steve Trevor. Plus the art, while interesting and stylized, looks messy and unreadable most of the time.

This one was wild... I'm not entirely sure what I just read. I'm definitely interested in reading the other Elseworld books after this one.
