I couldn't stand that guy, tbh.
Ha ha, I thought he was awesome. But I followed him from old Brave and the Bold comics, so I was kinda partial to him. I guess the whole concept of a spy, someone who lies for a living, falling for a demi-goddess, who's a representative of the aspect of truth, was an interesting pairing for me.
But, as a whole, I greatly enjoyed the previous volume of WW, both Picoult's and Simone's contributions alike.

As a concept it wasn't bad, I just didn't like the execution.

I will also say that Wonder Woman is extremely hard to find a romantic partner for. Steve Trevor...blah. Superman and Batman both have been overdone, imo. Aquaman's a good choice, but I'm a fan of Arthur/Mera.Now, Nemesis...that was one cool cat. 😎
Most likely for her they'll need to introduce a new character. Which i wouldn't mind if he's cool and some nice development.

Not really.With the right writer, I think it could work.

In a nut shell, he's a spy/government operative who specializes in disguise.

The Tom/Diana pairing? Or the volume as a whole?
I think the series was pretty good for the most part. It balanced humor, romance, action, adventure, and some pretty heavy and dark things pretty well, which I think is needed for someone like Wonder Woman, which is why I'm cautious still of Azarello's current ongoing. You can do darker stuff with Diana, but it can't get too heavy and serious without it...well, not being Diana. I am glad that he has put in some kinda chuckle worthy moments in it, though.

The Tom and Diana thing. Plus, Amazons Attack... OMG, BEES!
I thought the series itself had its moments; there were some nice scenes and arcs (like the one with Beowulf), but as a whole it doesn't strike me as being up to Gail's usual standard.
I guess I was just such a big fan of hers that I was expecting something different.
