Actually I recall at the time there was a mixed reaction to Rucka, since many found his Ambassador Diana a bit of a dull read.
Many also saw her as only a pawn of the gods plans. Stoned and Beyond the Bronze Doors especially.
And them there's the Max Lord thing.
Personally I think Jimenez did a much better updating of Perez.

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

Not a lot of hate at all, in fact all hate for Azzarello's run and other's stems from appreciation of this run.

Though much is taken, much abides; and though
We are not now that strength which in old days
Moved earth and heaven, that which we are, we are,
One equal temper of heroic hearts,
Made weak by time and fate, but strong in will
To strive, to seek, to find, and not to yield.
--Lord Alfred Tennyson--
Agreed. Phil's run seemed very much like a sequel to Perez's. He brought back Julia and Vanessa, showed Cheetah as a tactician, updated several Wonder-rogues like Giganta and Queen Clea, plus he showed Wonder Woman leading a large group of female heroes in battle against Circe and her lot of female villains.

...to the couple of folks commenting on Perez and Diana getting her powers at birth... this wasn't a new concept. It dates back to the Silver Age....

Not love at first sight. it's too much fairy tale-ish for my taste. Some attraction, sexual tension when they first meet. maybe first kiss on paradise island. WW already attracted to him start to fall in love for Trevor because he is brave and noble. She even meet other men and women, but her heart is already with Steve. They just have to do a cool dynmic trevor helps more with his intelligence and WW do more of the hard combat work. there is many ways. I'm pretty sure a good writer can do a better story than me
