If I had read this when I was still 8 this would have been the most exciting comic I'd ever read and a not-insignificant part of me still feels this way.
The Legend of Wonder Woman #19
Wonder Woman has been making a big splash in the European Theater of Operations, and it's drawn the notice of Nazi high command-and something even scarier!
The Legend of Wonder Woman #16
There is a war devastating the Outside World, and Diana cannot help but want to protect the many who are suffering. A chance meeting with Steve Trevor is interrupted by an opportunity to do just that!
The Legend of Wonder Woman #13
The Holliday Girls are off to Boston! But while the girls go shopping, Etta and Diana have more dangerous errands to run.
The Legend of Wonder Woman #10
The seas have extracted a harsh price for Diana's rescue of the outsider, casting her adrift upon the shores of Man's World! A kind woman introduces her to this strange new place, but Diana does not wish to stay.
YUP, STILL A PERFECT TEN.
The Legend of Wonder Woman #7
Themyscira is alive with the sounds of Amazons on the hunt. Will they find their prey before Diana has a chance to rescue the outsider who fell from the sky?
Am I still enthralled by this? Yup.
The Legend of Wonder Woman #4
As their training sessions grow more intense, Alcippe teaches Diana about life as well as battle. And as Diana becomes a young woman, the island they both love continues its fall!
I picked this up because She-Hulk was in it, and I enjoyed her and Daredevil lawyering at one another. I knew this book was funny from the Squirrel Girl crossover, & this issue confirmed for me that Howard the Duck deserves its place on rec lists everywhere. Sadly for me, bank accounts. But I'm glad I had the exra cash this month!

• It's the Power Cosmic versus the Power Chestnut: WHO WILL WIN?

Rated T+
The Unbeatable Squirrel Girl #5
The breakout character of 2015 continues her one-woman crusade against injustice and jerks in this standalone issue, a perfect jumping-on point for new readers!
These TAILS of the Squirrel Girl will show you the Marvel Universe's most powerful super hero from a bunch of brand-new perspectives, several of them QUITE ASTONISHING.

The Unbeatable Squirrel Girl #1
• Wolverine, Deadpool, Doctor Doom, Thanos: There's one hero that's beaten them all-and now she's got her own ongoing series! (Not that she's bragging.)
• That's right, you asked for it, you got it, it's SQUIRREL GIRL! (She's also starting college this semester.)
• It's the start of a brand-new seri...
"Mole Ma'am" haha. Had to deduct .5 stars because the bubble depicting the "Brotastic Brad" has a coloring error in my copy and also the next issue didn't immediately appear in my hands when I finished this one, which was a serious disappointment.

The Unbeatable Squirrel Girl #9
• The comic that got TWO #1s in its first year now reaches a new milestone: its very first #9!
• In Part 2 of "I Kissed A Squirrel And I Liked It," Squirrel Girl's date with a chump gets interrupted by MOLE MAN, who is a man who lives underground and can't see that well! Hence the name!!
• Squirrel ...
Some funny banter at the start, but overall this issue didn't congeal for me. tThe mini-stories felt like cheap lipgloss tastes; yeah, the strawberry flavor is unequivocally strawberry-flavored, but that's not the same taste as real strawberries. They felt generic and not particularly adroit at revealing elements of Dick Grayson's character that weren't made overt in earlier issues.
Grayson Annual #3
Determined to find out the identity of Spyral's Agent 37, detective Jim Corrigan gathers a collection of heroes who have seen the swirl-faced spy in order to hear their accounts. With guest appearances by Harley Quinn, Azrael, John Constantine and Green Lantern Simon Baz, get ready for some of Dick Grayson's greatest hits!
I'd be happy just to see Annie Wu's art (especially w/Vicente's colors), but now I'm sold on picking up anything else Detective Alice Gulliver appears in.
Scarlet Witch #7
• WANDA MAXIMOFF heads to HONG KONG to solve her next magical mystery.
• An ancient warlock, the DARK TONGI, has taken hold of the city.
• The Scarlet Witch must seek the help of a young witch, THE WU. But the Wu has her own battle to fight...

The Wicked + The Divine
Every ninety years, twelve gods incarnate as teenagers. They are loved. They are hated. In two years, they are dead. The team behind critically thermonuclear floor-fillers Young Avengers and PHONOGRAM reunite to start a new ongoing superhero fantasy with a beautiful oversized issue. Welcome to THE WICKED + THE DIVINE, where gods are the ultimate po...
Lumberjanes / Gotham Academy
What's to Love: We adore DC's Gotham Academy and it's been on our wish list to have them somehow meet the Lumberjanes. From the great characters to the fun stories, we saw a world in which these two groups could coexist. Fast forward and here we are-the crossover event we've dreamed about and can't wait to bring to you!

Dead Wife plot, uninterrupted by anything of interest. Sauvage gets 2 stars for having a style I enjoy, even when nothing that happens here is particularly memorable. 1 star to Robinson for at least creating a story which is easy to follow-- even if the subject matter is hopelessly cliche and predictable.
Scarlet Witch #6
PARIS, JE T'AIME
• Wanda's next magical mystery takes her to the streets of Paris, France!
• There she teams up with broken-hearted hero LE PEREGRINE, who has lost his ability to fly.
• In order to make him whole again, the SCARLET WITCH will have to risk life and limb visit ghosts of the ...
Finally, we get to see more of what Arcanic society looks like, PLUS more monster. As an aside, I'm loving the way even background characters in this book tend to just coincidentally be female. Finally, a fantasy world where women seem to actually take up 50% or more of the population!

Maika's world becomes even more dangerous.
I have little to say about the main story beyond "yes, good, more", but adding the Professor Tam Tam section at the end was a good idea. It helps flesh out the world without bogging down the main story. Plus it's nice to see Tam Tam's adorable kitten students after many pages of horrific monster murders. But these pages aren't cute for cute's sake either: Knowing that there are beings in Maika's w more
