    Wonder Woman #800 was everything that you could ask for in a WW comic. Diana's friends and family were enlightening both for her and the readers, providing an interesting perspective as she traversed the ritual. The dream-like state was quite a complimentary concept for this celebration, as the art in the book felt seamless despite the crazy number of talented artists who contributed to the story. The cut to the future was a clever way to get readers excited about the future of the book, and I was absolutely thrilled when Lizzie revealed her full name on the final pages (no spoilers). Whether you are a regular reader of the Wonder Woman comics, or just interested in checking out the extra-sized special, you can rest assured that Wonder Woman #800 is a flawless issue.  Read Full Review

    You Don't Read Comics - Russ Bickerstaff

    Theres a recurring theme this month in nearly every appearance Wonder Woman has had--shes always late. There are elements of that in Kings story and her appearance in this months Worlds Finest...even her cameo appearance in The Flash movie thats out this month. Kind of a weird coincidence and an odd detail to add in if they did it consciously. Conrad and Cloonan have a lot to focus on for their final issue. They might be going over old tropes, but theyre doing so in a way that feels very personal to both of them. From a certain point of view, it almost even looks like theyre making a cameo this issue as the entity that speaks to Diana...theres some suggestion that it might be a stand-in for the two of them. Kind of a graceful and tasteful creator cameo if thats what theyre intending. Read Full Review

    It's a bit of an abrupt ending, with the main conflict of the run ending a few issues back, but it's a beautiful tribute to the character. Read Full Review

    Wonder Woman #800 ends this chapter of Dianas story in a touching way, reinforcing what makes the character so unique and special after all these years. The backup story is equally excellent and is a great setup for the next Wonder Woman book to come. Recommended. Read Full Review

    But Why Tho? - Charles Hartford

    Jun 20, 2023

    Wonder Woman #800 delivers everything you could ask of a big, anniversary issue. Something old, something new, and for Diana, something True. But nothing less would serve for one of DC's greatest icons, the Warrior of Truth. Read Full Review

    This big milestone issue never managed to feel special or a celebration of all things Wonder Woman so much as a means to sunset her current arc and set up a new likely divisive creative run. Read Full Review

    Weird Science - Gabe Hernandez

    Jun 20, 2023

    Wonder Woman #800 is the second part of a long goodbye from the creative team. That's it. There's no story. It's a series of vignettes where Wonder Woman meets and emotionally validates every person in her life. If that's worth the cover price for you, go for it. Better still, the backup introduces the world to Trinity, Wonder Woman's daughter who will act as the title's focus when Tom King takes over in the Fall, and Trinity is everything Wonder Woman is not and more - truly insufferable.

    Jun 20, 2023

    Wonder Woman #800 was a generic ending of a failed run and nothing but a collectible first appearance of Wonder Woman's daughter.  The art is great throughout, but unless you are doing some speculating here, there is no reason to buy this. Read Full Review

    Given the character's importance, one would expect that when it comes to the milestone Wonder Woman #800 the issue would feature a story befitting the character's stature. Instead, the issue delivers a long, weirdly toned trek that has nothing to do with Wonder Woman at all, missing what is meant to be a well-intentioned love letter to the iconic character to instead serve up head pats for everyone around her and once again deny one of the greatest members of DC Comics's pantheon her due.
