The CBI Retro-Review: Wonder Woman #304

Brought to you by The Comic Book Illuminati, OutrightGeekery goes back in time with a retro-review.

“Polaris means peril!”

Wonder Woman must make some choices in this issue. First she has to decide who to help first, save her beloved Colonel Steve Trevor, or Major Keith Griggs. Then she has to decide whether or not to enlist the help of Green Lantern when Dr. Polaris throws the gauntlet down by threatening to magnetically turn the Earth sideways off it axis.

Wonder Woman #304Writer: Dan Mishkin
Penciler: Gene Colan
Inker: Frank McLaughlin
Letterer: Ben Oda
Colorist: Carl Gafford

This was a pretty action packed story created by legends Dan Mishkin and Gene Colon with sharp lines by Frank Mclaughlin and beautiful colors by Carl Gafford. From page 1 you have life and death happening with the ultimate goal is world destruction. This was fantastic, especially on the heels or rumor news that Chris Pine may play Green Lantern or Steve Trevor. How this is important? You’ll have to read to find out!

The Huntress

“Last Rites”

Writer: Joey Cavalieri
Penciler: Mike DeCarlo
Inker: Pablo Marcos
Letterer: Andrews
Colorist: Tollin

The Huntress is in a bind…and in a crematorium. She has only seconds before death is at her heels…literally.

This is a fantastic huntress short story by legends Joey Cavaliers and Mike DeCarlo (my personal legend, his work got me into comics). This tale was full of suspense and action. I can’t wait to read the next installment!

Rating: 5/5
