Absolute Wonder Woman #22 Preview

 

Her mother may have been trapped on the Wild Isle, but Diana didn't want to spend her life in the Underworld. But as she protects Gateway City from Veronica Cale's manufactured threats, Hades calls time. Diana must spend a month in the Underworld before returning to the world. It's part of the deal she struck to live a life on the surface. Yet it comes at a bad time, when her detractors are calling on the authorities to censure the Princess of Hell. 

What changes will Diana discover when she returns to the Wild Isle? And how will her friends fare in her absence?

Absolute Wonder Woman #21

 

After Zatanna Zatara weakened Diana, Giovanni Zatara attacked her. With Veronica Cale's attack squad wreaking havoc in Gateway City, Barbara Minerva watched the woman she idolized flee. After regaining a measure of strength at the Hieron, Diana returned to the fighting. Still, the Amazon she admired couldn't prevent Giganta from capturing her. 

Even if she fled the fighting once, Barbara believed that Diana would rescue her from Cale's clutches. But as she lay on a torture table, Veronica Cale tells Barbara that Diana escaped from Area 41 without rescuing her. Again. How will the woman who celebrated Diana's return to her world with a museum exhibit react to Cale's announcement? And bound in the Underworld by her deal with Hades, what can Diana do to aid Barbara?

Dead By Daylight: The Legion Preview

  

This was another graphic novel that came out when I was on travel. It's a fast-paced read that takes a penetrating look at why people choose to be villains. I've never played the game, but I readily understood the story and bonded with the characters. I enjoyed it, and hope to reread and review it in the future! Check it out! It's dark, chilling, and absorbing!
