Wow... Another great issue Jenkel definitely comes across as a Moriarty-esque character and I really like that. Diana's continued accent is a very nice touch.

Yeah, maybe the new Sherlock season inspired me in ways I hadn't noticed...
Buck, Wachter, damian, thanks for reading, there's still so many titles I have to catch up on, the one downside to the growing community is how much more there is to read. I'll get to them all though.
As far as turning the Spoilers into strippers- as long as it doesn't turn into Suckerpunch, thats fine.

You do realize that all the Spoilers are underage? Well, except for maybe Beth. Though if there comes to a stripper need of them I do have inklings of possibility for Arc 3 or 4. And they can always ask Jade to do it.

So number #16 out, one more to wrap up this story and I can't wait for you to all read it. I hope you enjoy this one, though it felt like it took me a while to get out.
I love what's happening with the site, and endeavour to catch up on reading everyone's more recent stories, plus I have a couple more stories with other people on site I have planned. Yay 2012.

I truly love what you've done with the gods. I love that interpretation of godly beings taking mortal vessels. Always been one of my favorites. And I love how some of our own plans tie together with them.
I have an amusing thing to admit... As an American, I laughed at reading our history explained without our spelling of Harbor. Bad, bad thing to do considering the event but it's just one of those random things that make you go "ha."
I do have to applaud you for writing two drastically different stories and pulling them both off greatly. You give WW a nice slow burn, get dynamic personalities and make each arc meaningful.

Yes I have to compliment you on that you can switch your style with what appears to be so much ease it's sickening. As with Wachter I love what you're doing with the Gods I love seeing them humanized in works of fiction. Though you've avoided one of the pitfalls that many writers fall into and that is you aren't personiffying the Gods within one trait and you're making them layered and not just one dimensional.

Just read the first three issues and I like what I saw. Nice, light hearted, first arc with a neat cliffhanger that's definitely gonna make me come back for more.

I'm in now way caught up enough to be current, but I must say, after just a few issues read today, I really dig your Diana. Showing her learning curve with the rules, laws, mores and norms of 'Man's World' has made for an interesting read. I'm just beginning the.. third arc?... with Dr. Cyber. A woefully under-and-mis-used character who has taken center stage in my own Wonder Woman fiction.
I know that there was something that I wanted to nitpick about as was reading one of the first three issues... but I can't remember what it was now. Guess issues 4 and 5 were good enough to make me forget.
I'm definitely going to keep reading.

oberon- Thanks man, I appreciate it. 2 and 3 I did in first person, I definitely feel like they were two of my weakest, but hopefully I'm getting better. I'm enjoying getting into the grittier stuff.
kardon- Thanks too, I'm gutted to hear you are dropping your Odd Man. I hope you stick around to maybe pick up another title when you get more time- you're a good writer.
Buckster and Wachter- I love ya both, thanks heaps for keeping up with my issues. Your feedback means alot.
Anyway, #17 up. It ends my "Where is Diana Prince" arc. Took me ages to get up, so I hope you think it's worth it. I'm too far into it myself and can't tell anymore, but I loved worked on it. Thanks again Buck for Tom Tresser- I hope you don't mind how I used him.
Next issue is a much delayed Christmas Special, which should bring me into 2012. Look forward to JLA and everyones titles moving forward.

Just getting around to diving in to this. There were so many series to catch up on when I joined and to be honest I put off some of the longer running ones at first because there was just so much there.
I am only a few issues in but I definitely dig the stranger in a strange land vibe you have going so far and will definitely keep going. Hopefully I can get a few issues a day read, but I am dividing my reading to catching up on 3 different series right now, so we will see.
But great job so far.

After all the build up and the dynamic personalities and scenes in the other issues, I felt this one fell flat somewhat. It still had some good points but it wasn't one of your better ones. You didn't have me on the edge of me seat like usual.

It wasn't bad enough to merit a rewrite but I can look it over if you wish.

Just got around to reading the second arc-the Circe two parter. Great read man, really digging this and I liked your presentation of Circe, nice twist on the classic archetypes. Circe is one of may favorite WW villains, so I really liked this two-parter and hope we see Circe's revenge slowly unfold. I like the way Diana is slowly acclimatizing to our world, with language, concepts, etc.
Quick question-did you do the sketch of Diana in the S.H.A.D.E. files? It is fantastic.

Thanks for the reviews. Yeah, I did the sketch, if I can photoshop or something working, I'm hoping to colour it. Planning to sketch up my S.H.A.D.E. team too, at some stage...

WW #18 up.
A much delayed Xmas special, full of sweetness and holiday joy (no, I mean it- no sarcasm). This issue acts as a bit of a breather between 'the Wonder and the Vision' Arc, and my next 'Fear and Wonder' arc, which will be full of scary threats, madness and will tie into JLA, FDS and a few of my own stories. Fun. Hope you enjoy.

Now that's what I call a stand alone issue. Fantastic. Might even be my personal favorite of yours. There was issue on continuity where I'm concerned but it's not something I can't work in, in some form or be accounted for as a rerun.
Oh, and I went in and fixed a typo in your final scene (gods, I hope that's Dionysus and not some obscure DC character I can't recall... Be good to see the party god as something else for once). You had mad instead of made.

Sorry if I messed you around with what you had planned. Glad you enjoyed it. Appreciate the edit assist.
Your hope will be fulfilled... the Wild God approaches.

It doesn't mess me up much and it's an easy fix so there's no reason to stress about it.
