REVIEW: Wonder Woman #33 – Grails against the Gods
Wonder Woman #33 has the making of an instant classic Wonder Woman story.
After the events of Darkseid War, the king of Apokolips was killed and was reborn as an infant. It is up to Grail to hunt down the sons and daughters of Zeus scarred across the Earth to feed Darkseid of their life forces.
I like this issue because it explained what the whole “Children of the Gods” story is all about. The story is really interesting as it tries to explain the story of Wonder Woman’s lost twin brother—who was revealed during Darkseid War in Justice League #50 (New 52).
Wonder Woman #32 gives Grail, daughter of Darkseid, the proper developments that were lacking during her first stint in New 52. With the story moving forward, I am excited to see what Darkseid has in store for Wonder Woman. The involvement of Wonder Woman’s twin brother is equally an interesting new angle in the Wonder Woman mythos.
James Robinson has put in a lot of interesting elements in this story. I can’t wait to see how this story develops. In my opinion, it has the making of an instant classic Wonder Woman story.
