Absolute Wonder Woman Issue 10 adds layers to the labyrinth. Even though these issues spend a lot of time in the maze, Thompson makes a conscious effort always to add something new and unexpected to keep readers hooked. Read Full Review
Thompson, Sherman and Bellaire are coming alarmingly close to a more or less flawless first year on the series. Its all passed by so swiftly. The dreamlike power of the title continues unabated. Thompson and company have developed a great deal of momentum that should serve the series well as it approaches the end of its first year. As steady as the series has been in revealing bits of Diana of the Wild Isle and her past...theres still so much about her that remains a gorgeous mystery. Its going to be great fun to see that mystery continue. Read Full Review
Absolute Wonder Woman continues to be a fantastic example of how to utilize flashback storytelling to enhance present day events. Everything Kelly Thompson details about Diana's childhood growing up with Circe informs what happens in Absolute Wonder Woman #10. That enhancement in storytelling helps to put over how Diana has grown to be prepared to face any obstacle she faces. Read Full Review
This is a really strong issue that enriches the backstory and mythology of this newer, more grounded take on Wonder Woman. It successfully deepens the character while maintaining a compelling narrative. I look forward to reading more of this series in the coming months. Read Full Review

Absolute Wonder Woman #10 is a fantastic issue. Minor issues aside, this continues to be a strong series and honestly my favorite Absolute title to read. Read Full Review
Absolute Wonder Woman #10 blends thrilling action, profound character development, and breathtaking art, making it a standout in DC's Absolute line. The issue particularly shines in its exploration of Diana's origins and her dual nature as a formidable warrior and compassionate protector, all brought to life by Sherman's “trippy” and masterful artwork.

The action and character work remain top notch, and then this issue goes and gives us one of the best flashbacks and mission statements yet. Read Full Review
Sherman delivers fantastic art throughout the issue. I love the visual style and how is strikes a brilliant balance between new and classic imagery. A beautiful looking issue from start to finish. Read Full Review
Absolute Wonder Woman #10 is a high-energy brawl dripping with dense myth and strange beauty, let down only by uneven pacing and a habit of telling what it should be showing. Sharp writing, bold art, but a crowd of undercooked side characters and a few too many monologues hold it back from greatness.6.5/10 Read Full Review
Absolute Wonder Woman has been a revelation as a series. The Absolute universe was supposed to be a "darker" take on the main DC universe. It certainly is, but that is part of what makes Diana's character in this universe so much more memorable and effective. Kelly Thompson is doing remarkable work. Issue #10 was divided into two parts -Diana's encounter with the goddess Artemis as a little girl and the present, where she is trying to save Ferdinand the Minotaur and Petra the Siren from a tyrannical Queen. The present day section of the story goes very well, as Ferdinand sacrifices himself to shelter Diana and Petra, Diana gets Petra to safety in the Hieron, then returns to rescue Ferdinand and continue her primary mission of finding the Ammore
Though I am not a fan of Hayden Sherman's art, which I believes drags down the quality of the is book, but I do think Thompson has found her niche. She's doing a good job with this version of Diana. I also like her bringing back Ferdinand. I wish I knew how these mer-creatures can live in this maze. Is the female leader the Amazonian Diana is looking for? Someone let me know. I do love the flashback in this issue as well.

Absolute Batman was robbed. This has to be the most over rated comic this year. I love it as well, just nowhere near as much as everyone else. It's easily, my least favourite .
