Future editorial bullpen rules on how to create a company wide cross-over title will begin "Do everything opposite of Amazon Attacks." This is, simply, the worst, laziest effort at a cross-over I have seen by any comic book company.
Where to begin? First, this accumulated volume suffers greatly from a terrible editorial policy wherein the cross-over title contains little of the primary action or plot elements that push along the major story-arc. Most primary plot twists and d More...

Wonder Woman: Amazons Attack conjures memories of the events that led to the United States going to war with Iraq. While the story is pure fiction, it differs from the real life account in a couple of ways. First and foremost is that the Amazons invade American soil to wreak havoc after a resurrected Queen Hippolyta is deceived into believing the U.S. government has taken Wonder Woman into custody.

A fair amount of Wonder Woman's storyline occurs outside of this book which I found disappointing.
I thought this volume followed Wonder Woman: Love and Murder (Wonder Woman #6-10), but Amazons Attack! is apparently it's own run of Amazons Attack! #1-6. It actually backtracks the storyline a bit with plot elements that occurred in Love and Murder interspersed within Amazons Attack which is a bit confusing.
Perhaps Wonder Woman #11-13 aren't collected in a graphic novel since Wo More...

I really wanted to give this book at least a 3. I'm a big Wonder Woman fan but I can't. This book has a linked storyline to Love and Murder. Circe brings back Queen Hippolyta, tells her that the government has her daughter and that they are torturing WW to find out the Amazon's secrets. Hippolyta declares war on Amercia. I really don't see the Amazons killing innocent women and children. Something that bugged me to no end Where did the giants & dinosaur things come from? To me this book just did

When my one reaction to finishing a trade of Wonder Woman is "Why would they ruin her legacy like this?" I think I've figured out that there's a problem. That this book doesn't seem to fit in with the rest of the story and also ends up being a ham-fisted anti-war allegory doesn't help. To think that the Rucka run was so good, too...

Very poorly written book. Enough with the mind control plots already. Totally undermined by the total mess that some of these cross title events turn into. Little synopsis paragraphs for the off title occurrences. You wouldn't read a book with half the pages missing so why would you want to buy an incomplete trade.

Confusing, violent, not the best style either. Everyone in the verse shows up, which is fun, but it's also little screen time for the various players, especially Diana.
Artemis is nicely drawn, but the final reveal is just stupid, takes away the power of Artemis' decision.

I have never disliked a Wonder Woman book, until now. There as something very wrong with the way this book was portrayed women, like strong women have no self control, no intelligence and can't do anything right unless they have a man to lead the (enter Superman and Batman). No, I did not like this book at all.

Can you tell I'm rereading my comics? :p This book was all about confused loyalties. Loyalty to Earth, and all its corrupt government, or loyalty to the home you left behind. Perfection.

Goes down with its parent event, Countdown, as some of the worst cases of editorial-influenced events in comics.

Uninspired, disjointed, and so full of trope, you could make trope sandwiches for a month.

What can I say except...why? I love thePfeif and I love Amazons [since the Artemis-Requiem days], and I wanted to love this series, but damn--it was just all over the place and very poorly put together. The only good thing to come from this series is the Dodson's run on Wonder Woman. Other than that--this book, and the subsequent tie-ins that spidered all over the DCU, was just something that should've been moved to the slush can.
