DESCRIPTION:
--Jesse Karp . Azzarello brings the harder-than-usual-hitting action and razor-sharp dialogue from his tough-as-nails 100 Bullets, establishing his heroine as a fierce protector and a woman in search of community.

Speak, O Memory Though the New 52 had a number of controversial titles in it, Wonder Woman was one of the few that got a large amount of acclaim. and I decided to see if it lived up to the hype.To put it bluntly, this volume barely feels like it belongs in the DC Universe. The entire focus of Wonder Woman's activities is her family, ie the Greek Pantheon. The Justice League is not even mentioned. But this is not necessarily a bad thing. Azzarello sets up a very large scale pow
