Strife's back, this makes me very happy indeed. But wow... Apollo makes a play for the throne? Zola in labor? Does time in the Underworld pass differently? I'm thinking so seeing as how much Zola's hair has grown. It feels like everythings happening so damned quickly!

Beautiful cover as usual from Cliff Chiang, and it's awesome to see Diana rocking the cape look, I've always thought she's suited a cape.

That cover is fantastic as usual. Is that three wolf moon on Zola's shirt?

I still can't help but think that the new costume makes her look like a Nazi. Sitting on giant eagle thrones doesn't help that.

I don't think that the costume makes her look like a Nazi, but when I saw the stone eagle she was sitting on, that is where my mind went.

Anyways, love this cover!

Cool that she still has the lasso. She didn't seem to have it on the cover for #10, and I was afraid she might have had to leave it in hell.

Nice that we seem to be getting to the resolution of some of the mysteries set up by #1. I wonder if Apollo will interpret the oracles (who said that Zeus planned for one of Zeus' children to murder another and take their place) as meaning that that he is destined to murder Wonder Woman and "take her place" on the throne.

If she really is on the throne, how did she get there? By being reborn more powerful and more regal after "dying" in hell? And will she now be able to restore the Amazons?

If Strife is really by Diana's side, I wonder what happened to cause that? She was pretty much vowing vengeance when we last saw her, wasn't she?

I know what you mean, but it's funny to see your sentence after so many people after complained about decompression and slow pace.

Agreed.

Love it--Diana's pose here is very King Conan.

The eagle thing is probably another case of the Nazis using symbols of other cultures and making it their own. Much like the Swastika had it's origin in Tibet.

She probably just doesn't want Apollo to take over Olympus.

In numerous interviews, Azzarello said that he had a plan for a specific "Arc/Saga" to last a year. So I guess we'll have the end of this big story by issue 12 or 13.

I can see how you'd say that. It's the color combination, but those pointy Stormtrooper boots have gotta have something to do with it too. Because they look like rain gear she'd seem more at home in black leather trench than a cape.

Is that Strife's only outfit? I wish she could evolve like Zola.
