Wonder Woman (2006-2011) #1

Set after the events of Infinite Crisis and during DC's One Year Later storyline, Wonder Woman (2006-2011) #1 sees Donna Troy taking on the mantle of Wonder Woman after Diana disappeared due to her past actions and fighting her old villains to protect Steve Trevor. When she gets captured, a team is tasked to help find her with Diana part of the team disguised as an agent named Diana Prince. This is the first of three Wonder Woman digital comics that I got for free after seeing 2017s Wonder Woman, the first to focus on Donna Troy, the first to deal with the events of Infinite Crisis which I have not read but know enough about it to understand what's going on, and the first to download from ComiXology. While at first a bit confused why Wonder Woman was going by a different name, looking up what happened before helped me understand and appreciate the issue more. Though there was a bit too much exposition given in nearly every page that felt distracting, the story is well told and the artwork by Terry Dodson is very fresh and smooth. The fight scenes between Donna and Wonder Woman's old foes is the best part and the ending has some good surprises. Over all: 81%
