Same here. I usually wait for a story arc to complete itself first though.

Felt like forever since issue #12. Latest issue was decent enough but felt kind of short IMO.

I liked the beginning but the latter half fell off for me.

Same here. I want Cliff back.
Did you get to check out Cheetah in JLA yet?

I did. I was okay with the origin though I was saddened that they replaced Julia Kapatelis with Cheetah as Wonder Woman's first friend in Man's World. Julia Kapatelis was essentially everything Cheetah is now only without the turn into a villain. She was an archaeologist. She was never vital to the canon but I thought she was valuable in establishing Wonder Woman's humanity early on. She was the mother away from the mother for WW basically. It is fine, but I would have just kept it.

It was better than I thought it would be. I've actually never heard of Julia Kapatelis.

Anyone see Diana beat down Kara/Supergirl in H'el on Earth? She didn't even need to take off the bracelets.

Funny thing is that the writer for Supergirl said in an interview at launch that Supergirl was stronger than Superman. I don't know if that held up over the course of the series though.

Diana commented on her strength, comparing it to Clark's but her SUPREME AMAZON FIGHTING SKILLS were too much.

Haha, granted this was as a guest star in Kara's book but still very good writing IMO.

Good point. Diana even went so far as to say that Kara fought like a child.

Nice! I wonder how Kara would compare if she learned Kryptonian martial arts.

That would make it very interesting.

Finished off the most recent arc. The story is cool but sometimes it feels like Diana is just a supporting character. Still loving Chiang's art and Akins does a fine job filling in.
