A review by rbreade
Wonder Woman, Vol. 1: The Just War by G. Willow Wilson

Even a good writer like Wilson stumbles occasionally. Her work on Ms. Marvel was so sparkling and grounded in specific, everyday detail, but here, page one, she delivers obvious expository dialogue, bane of good writing and easy crutch for world-building and plot development. The story has no room to breathe as Wonder Woman hurries from fight to fight, with the result that nothing feels important or dangerous. When Wilson slows down, in an issue titled "The New World," to give us the story of three side characters--a faun, a minotaur, and a pegasus, refugees from vanished Olympus--trying to get past Customs and Border Protection and then trying to find their footing in Washington, D.C., you get a glimpse of her Ms. Marvel form.
