Ultimate Graphic Novel’s Review by Bukhari Books
Once upon a time, the world s greatest heroine was reimagined by a comic book legend. More than 40 years after debuting in All Star Comics #8, Wonder Woman was reshaped by legendary comics creator George Pérez and returned to the public eye in 1986. This updated Amazonian Princess met with such acclaim that Pérez s original six-month commitment to the title was extended–and extended–until nearly five years had passed. Working with scripter Mindy Newell and artist Chris Marrinan, plus a host of talented inkers (including Steve Montano and Romeo Tanghal), Pérez brought Wonder Woman to a new generation of readers–and to unprecedented levels of success. Now these treasured stories are available in an all-new trade paperback edition. Collecting Wonder Woman #36-45 and Wonder Woman Annual #2, this fourth volume in the series features some of the most exciting moments of DC s modern age!
About the Author
George Pérez started drawing at the age of five and hasn t stopped since. Born on June 9, 1954, Pérez began his professional comics career as an assistant to Rich Buckler in 1973. After establishing himself as a penciller at Marvel Comics, Pérez came to DC in 1980, bringing his highly detailed art style to such titles as Justice League of America, and after co-creating The New Teen Titans in 1980, Pérez and writer Marv Wolfman reunited for the landmark miniseries Crisis on Infinite Earths in 1985. In the aftermath of that universe-smashing event, Pérez revitalized Wonder Woman as the series writer and artist, reestablishing her as one of DC s preeminent characters and bringing in some of the best sales the title has ever experienced. He has since gone on to illustrate celebrated runs on Marvel s The Avengers, CrossGen s Solus and DC s The Brave and the Bold.
