Wonder Woman ("Amazon's Attack" Spoilers)

I'm finally digging the monthly Wonder Woman title. Since early elementary, I've been a fan of the character concept, thanks in part to an adolescent crush on Lynda Carter. I've also loved seeing the uber-powerful amazon kick but along-side Superman and Batman. She's part of the DC comics triumvirate, right?

Well, until recently her solo book has held no interest for me, largely because of the sandals and togas. What I always liked about the character concept was that she was a touch of the ancient world in modern society. But with many of her previous adventures involving other sandal and toga types, the novelty was lost.

In the last issue of "Amazons Attack", however, all of the amazons were placed in civilian identities with no memory of their true heritage. Currently, Wonder Woman has taken the alias of Diana Prince and works as an agent for "The Department of Meta-human Affairs". Her partner is a man code-named "Nemesis", very capable in his own right, but who occasionally still needs saving by Wonder Woman. This aspect of the stories is a nice return to Diana being the strong female icon and role-model that Wonder Woman was originally created to be.

I'm really loving the current status quo for this character and hope that it sticks around for awhile!
