Second issue was great! First issue was pretty tepid but everyone brought their A-game here I thought. Very pleasantly surprised by the variety in stories. Also those of you who complain about Diana’s villains, one of them got the win over another member of the Trinity lol. spoilers:end of spoilers
Circe has beaten both Superman (in this issue) and Batman (in the DCAU) just another sign of her status as the arch
It’s disliked here but to put it in perspective: it’s the only WW run I know that’s gotten Absolutes and Omnibuses and has been consistently kept in print. A lot of casuals view N52 Azz WW as one of the great runs alongside Snyder Batman and Johns JL.

Ahhhh, you say that my friend, but in the latest DC Encyclopedia Circe barley got half a page.
I think most have just noticed the lack of Circe from recent Wonder Woman comics, since she was primarily used in JL Dark. I like the depiction of Circe in all of these though, so bring in more Circe I say!

Also there was another reference to Wonder Woman being blind. Writers really like that story arc, huh?

~I just keep swimming through these threads~
Couldn't disagree more with everyone here. Loved the first issue of Black and Gold. The Etta Candy story, the interrogation / origin of the lasso, the one where Lyta was sick. This second issue felt very weak aside from the Mariko Tamaki story (which was quite cool). I wouldn't recomend this issue to anyone unless they really like Wonder Woman. None of these stories emotionally connected with me like B&G #1, nor did any of them make me laugh, or intrigue me.
There was no refreshing statement about Wonder Woman (aside from the first story), or the intricacies of her relationship with the people in her life.
Too much New 52 for me.
Without Love began with promise but then was over in the blink of an eye. The concept deserved a full story.
…at least I got a nice Dodson cover for my money.

“You see…the rest of them are soldiers. But [Wonder Woman] is an artist.”
I only support the made of clay origin.

Is Clark your boyfriend?! And now the "The Acquaintance". What are you up to DC?
