With DC getting ready to reboot its universe yet again, the publisher issued a series of one-shots that reflect the history of some of it’s greatest creations by reteaming original creative teams of the past 40 years with new “lost tales” of the DC Universe.
In this Wonder Woman special, Dennis O’Neil pens another tale about the powerless Amazon Princess. With her home island having sunk into the sea, Diana finds a mysterious submersible responsible. In order to save her people, she must confront her past and solve a series of tasks. She’s supposed to solve 3 mysteries but only completes 2. When asked of this, she responds that she thinks everything is back to normal and then the tale stops! No “The End” or “To Be Continued?”
The companion reprint piece from 1972 isn't any better. That too also ends abruptly with no “Tune in Next Time” or even a small blurb telling the reader which issues can be found to conclude this tale. Very poor editing, if you ask me. Not impressed. Hopefully, things will be better in the other Retroactive volumes.
Rating: 5 out of 10 stars.
