Throughout the years, Wonder Woman has had many dramatic storylines, but maybe none as dire as this. After hundreds of years in a deep sleep, Diana awakens to find herself in a post-apocalyptic wasteland. Her friends, the Justice League, gone…or dead. The reason why, wiped from her memory.
Wonder Woman must find others in the wasteland; she needs to know what catastrophe took place, and why. Most importantly, she needs to find her way home to Themyscira, to her mother. The mythical island must have survived this desolation, right?
Daniel Johnson, writer and illustrator, creates a strikingly visual tale of fallen gods and monsters. His tale of destruction and death still holds tight to forgiveness and hope, making for one of the more captivating short runs in DC comics.
While, we know that this is just one version of Wonder Woman, one of the many in an infinite pool of dimensions, it is still a heartbreaking ode to one of DC’s most powerful heroes.
