You’re probably thinking, “Nice tangent Ash, but what does this all have to do with Wonder Woman?” Well, surprise! Wonder Woman’s origin story with the Amazons sits squarely in Greek Myth territory. Regardless of the more serious works I’ve enjoyed over the years, my original copy of this children’s classic still has a special place on my bookshelf because it was the seed from which my interest in these stories grew. One of my favorite books growing up was D’Aulaires’ Book of Greek Myths. I’ll let you in on a secret: I’m a bit of a Greek Mythology freak. This newest Prestige mini-series from DC is comprised of three issues that comprehensively outline how The Amazons came to be, giving readers convenient access to build context on an established character’s universe without the stress of “where do I start?!”

Wonder Woman is a character I’m familiar with in theory, but I’ve got to be honest, I know very little about who she is, why she does what she does, or the people that inhabit her world. I’m always thrilled when a lore-heavy origin story is slated for release. I got the chance to put that into practice last month when I reviewed the high-fantasy reimagining Dark Knights of Steel, and I’m back at it again with Wonder Woman Historia: The Amazons.
