Summary: The Best Wonder Woman Retrospective Yet
Comment: What is so great about the book is that it is about a woman character that often does not get the great treatment that Superman or Batman sets. And we finally see that people are paying more attention to her, and her mythology, finally.
What I love about it is the fact that almost everyone in the Modern series has been included, and a few of the ones from the classic series as well.
Great going DC.

Summary: Wonder Woman Never Looked Better
Comment: This is THE illustrated guide to Wonder Woman and her mythology. Completely loaded with pictures from all aspects of Wonder Woman's world, the book is wonderfully organized and presented. Although now slightly outdated (due to Greg Rucka's amazing run of the comic) the book is the best way to start getting to know Wonder Woman and what she's about. Not as informative as "Wonder Woman-The Complete History", it's still a fitting tribute to Diana and all that she stands for.

Summary: Fantastic Guide to the Comic Book Wonder Woman
Comment: Quite simply, this is a very beautifully done book covering the comic book heroine Wonder Woman and her various supporting cast members. The book is split section by section covering the 60+ year history of the Amazon Princess. Wonder Woman's powers and origin are described with gorgeously drawn and colored photos highlighting each aspect. The book then goes on to describe the various tools Diana uses from the lasso, invisible plane, to the lesser known items such as The Gauntlet of Atlas and Wings of Hermes. Wonder Woman's family and friends (some of which are also costumed Wonder Women) each have thier own pages also, as well as Diana's enemies detailing their abilities and reasons for siding against the super powered heroine. This is a great book to get for those who are interested in learning more about the comic book version of the character. As a part of a series of books detailing DC Comics' best known heroes, this detailed reference guide is also an easy to follow book. For those sticklers of accuracy, the book does have a few errors printed in it. A few of those are: the Amazon characters Pythia and Phthia are mistaken for each other and thus their histories are melded together, the book states that the evil Dark Angel created Wonder Woman's sister Donna Troy when in fact it was the Amazon Magala, villain Armbruster is stated to have been Silver Swan's pen pal when in fact he was the person who made her instead, mobster Paulie Longo is said to have hired the Cheetah in Boston when in fact it was fellow mobster Julianna Sazia, the godesses Hestia and Demeter are misidentified, and the index lists the Amazon Nubia is being shown but she is not. If you can overlook these mistakes, and the fact that the on-screen versions of the heroine are overlooked, this is the perfect book for all things 'wonder'.
