Sins of Youth: Wonder Girls

    (DC, 2000)
™ and ©2000 DC Comics

This one–shot, part of DC’s 2000 “Sins of Youth” storyline, contains a characteristically strong showing from writer Brian K. Vaughan, but before he made his reputation on Y: the Last Man. Reverted to her teen state by a malevolent mini–marauder named Klarion the Witchboy, Wonder Woman is still capable of teaching her prematurely aged protégé Wonder Girl a thing or two. Vaughan’s thoughtful and diplomatic resolution to the story provides good insight into what makes Wonder Woman different from her “POW! BIFF!” male counterparts. Scott Kolins’ art, before his style shifted to the more crystalline look he developed on The Flash, provides some shiny, eye–pleasing results.
