Summary
Diana made a promise to Aphrodite: she would do everything she could to help her find her daughter, Atlantiades, lost somewhere on Earth. But when they pick up her trail, there’s no way to prepare themselves for what they’ll find: a perfectly normal suburban town…driven out of its mind with uncontrolled lust!
Positives
The premise of this story is cool. The town without inhibitions is fun and interesting. But there are consequences that Diana has to stop. It’s a fun challenge for her.
Negatives
I’m not in love with the cover. It’s kind of goofy. Diana’s face is so weird and it kills the effect of the cover.
The interior art is hit and miss. Some stuff looks nice. But there are a lot of panels that aren’t as detailed and don’t look as good to me.
Verdict
I like this issue. The story in Wonder Woman #69 is fun; I like the idea. It feels like a good fit for Diana and I’m interested to see where it goes. My only complaint is that the art could be better.
