Well, I'm really torn on how I want to rate this. I loved Rucka's run on Diana from Hikatea to the end of the series. He absolutely understood how to straddle the line between regal female Uber power and someone that cares deeply for even the lowest of the low. This issue was a perfect underlining of that. She doesn't get angry, she operates out of love and that is a huge difference between her and Batman or Superman. I love that stuff. Unfortunately, there was also the battle.
I really didn't like the pat way she was able to defeat the Black lanterns. I understand you need to get her to Coast City and all that stuff, but the lasso catching on fire was just dumb to me. I did absolutely love her hacking Max into smaller bit size pieces though.
The art was a little too glossy and not detailed enough toward the end for my tastes. I hope we get better in the next issue, and I have faith in Rucka to make it worth while so I'll stick around, but I wasn't overly impressed by this issue.

I thought Nicola Scott’s art was fantastic.
This is just me personally, but I feel like *any* way you defeat a black lantern is inherently silly. I mean, I guess most powers do seem inherently silly. It’s all kid warfare logic. "You bullet doesn’t hit me cuz I have a force field." "Yeah? well I have a force field cutter!" So, the important elements for me is if the defeat falls in line with the emotional through-line of the story. And in this case, it did. So I was cool with it. 😉
And I’m with Neseman — Scott’s art was great. I’d SO buy a Rucka/Scott Wonder Woman run.
@daccampo: Your example of "kid warfare logic" is apt and hilarious.

It’s not that I disliked the whole of the art. I loved the montage at the start, but it seemed to me about half way through the book it stopped being as detailed as it was at the beginning and looked kind of glossed over and superficial. That uneven quality really detracted from my enjoyment.
