This binding directly continues the previous eventsr, where the promise of the appearance of the leopard woman, which in fact appears in the first edition of this volume. The plot begins by exploring Diana's interaction in the human world, which she chose to embrace and quickly became a symbol of. Interesting points are presented, such as the publicists who aim to use the heroine's image for marketing purposes and how she is embraced by everyone, but not without suffering from religious conflicts.

However, the Gods and paradise island are not forgotten. Eventually Diana ends up returning to her home, where she ends up having to go through some challenges - very similar to those of Hercules- to flee from the wrath of Zeus. This is without a doubt the most interesting part of these stories, as it completely changes the situation of the Amazons and reformulates their relationship with the Gods in an interesting way.

This volume turns out to be equally important. While the previous one presented the character's new origin, this one is essential to show her inclusion in the world of men, introduce important characters and some changes in the island of paradise.

Keeping a good balance between mythology and the human world, this saga proves to be interesting and coherent. George Perez takes over the illustrations again, leaving a very favorable harmony for the comics, which do not suffer from the sudden change of traits that usually bothers readers.

This reformulation of Wonder Woman is one worth following, with interesting plots and a fresh take on the heroine, it's a treat for fans.
