******************************************************************************************************************************************
My breakdown of issue 4
Story arc Year One Part Two takes off with a story we all know so well already. We are in Themyscira with the Amazons helping with Steve Trevor’s recovery, The Amazons try to decipher the meaning of the Gods for bringing a man to their island paradise and who will return him?
We see within the story the games in the arena of Amazons fighting for a champion that befalls to Princess Diana. They repair Steve’s plane and makes it invisible for safety while Diana emerges in her new outfit and given the golden lasso of truth to carry with her. Diana says her goodbye’s and departs for the world of men.
This issue was ok, I understand how it was needed to be printed in this volumes reboot of Wonder Woman but we have read it, seen it and know about it already for a long time. Mostly this issue seemed to be more of a filler issue, but understandable why they printed it. Nothing about this issue really stuck out or strikes a cord with me except maybe the panels talking about Steve’s Navy Seal patch and how it has Poseidon’s Trident in the eagle’s talons while the eagles head is bowed down as a symbol of how we don’t look for war but are ready for it when needed, similar to the symbolism of the eagle on the one dollar bill.
