Conrad' s,  Becky Cloonan' s and  Travis Moore' s tour on the  Wonder Woman  comic, called  Wonder Woman: Afterworlds,  is an exceptionally written and illustrated literary work - all the more exceptional, ..being a comic book story. I suppose you could call it " a good start",  since the creative team just wrapped its opening story arc,  Afterworlds,  and is moving swiftly onto its next one, ..already much anticipated by fans.

She is so much more than Wonder Woman's  'Batman Who Laughs'.  I chuckle every time I see that in print, ..and I challenge any DC Comics fan or creator to read  Wonder Woman:   Afterworlds  all over again, if that's all they got out ...
