Don't worry, I understand. As the harsh criticisms are often repeated in the forum, I can forget that there are people who enjoy it.
In my case, I have problems with this issue because it excited me for a moment, but it disappointed me at the end.
I do not give much importance to the aspect of powerhouse, so I do not have much problem with the lack of feats or that Wonder Woman receives help. However, Diana had overcome her doubts and released her power in this issue, but still loses in the end. That was dissappointing for me.
It would have been better if the loss of Diana was the next issue (with a more fearsome enemy), while she was undefeteable in this one.

Whether she deeded it or not (debatable) she didn’t get to solve the problem. As with Ares in the first story arc, someone else steps in at the critical moment and does it for her. And I’m questioning why somehow Wonder Woman can’t control her own power.
If you think it’s unreasonable to expect that Wonder Woman actually be the one to solve the problem in her own book, then I’m going to have to start quoting “The Princess Bride”.

If ten years of recording The Young and the Restless for my mother have taught me anything, it's that characters in serial dramas are always happily in love...until they're not
“The very powerful and the very stupid have one thing in common. Instead of altering their views to fit the facts, they alter the facts to fit their views...which can be very uncomfortable if you happen to be one of the facts that needs altering.” - the 4th Doctor
I was enjoying it too, right up to the last four pages.
Personally I don’t count 3 out of 5 as good. That equates to 6 out of 10, which in my book is passable or okay.
Had Disna shattered the giants foot, then just as she is about to do a finishing move Maggie turns up and it surrenders, I would have been much happier. But seeing WW show her amazing power by getting stomped on and not dying is not, for me, a satisfying conclusion to to the crisis at hand.

I don't think that's unreasonable, I think assuming she couldn't have defeated the last giant when she'd already vanquished so many just like him and then being upset that she didn't is unreasonable. You still haven't answered how you would have shown the power of Antiope's sword?
I answered that in post #35.
Symbolically the giants defer to its owner. So they could have just had Diana defeat the last giant and then the sword turns up. Having the crushed remains of the giants head acknowledge Maggie would have communicated the same message without (again) stealing Wonder Woman’s thunder.
The limits of how Wonder Woman saves the day are only within the imagination of the writer. In that regard, unfortunately, this arc and the first one with Ares display rather significant limitations.

Honestly, I'm so THRILLED with the Diana-Maggie-Aphrodite character dynamic and the prospect of the WW comic having an actual CAST, again, ..that I can forgive #68's obvious narrative short-comings. If Etta's out, let's move on with Maggie and the rest. I think the WW comic is going in the right direction, and let's hope her editors, presently the Bat-office, will care enough to enforce writers to use what's here and build on it, as we've seen in other comics!
Also, ..I'd love to see Doris join the cast, when and if Aphro goes back to Olympus.
