After reading the first issue of this new story arc, I am happy to say that Shea Fontana has filled the shoes of Greg Rucka left behind. However, she still has quite a long way to go before to have a story that can compare to the first stories of Rebirth. However, with what this new story is promising, I can't wait to read more.

Last issue, we saw Diana suffer a loss on a mission but pushed people away as she did not wish to share the burden. Etta Candy, Diana's best friend, decides to remedy this by having Diana join her for a family wedding. Everything looks like it's going great, but when she is assisting Etta's niece in finding her shoe, she found a very EXPLOSIVE wedding gift. I'm certain the bride and groom will be BLOWN AWAY by it... It's a bomb if the puns weren't clear.

Will Diana save the wedding? Let's find out!

I won't lie when I say that this issue had me a bit worried. Not only is this the first issue of a new story arc, but the first issue for a new creative team. While the prospect might seem exciting, I wasn't expecting the writer to be Shea Fontana, the creator of the family friendly DC Super Hero Girls series. That's not to say DC Super Hero Girls is bad(it's actually quite adorable), but it feels like a huge leap from a series meant for children to one of DC's biggest faces. It also doesn't help that it's coming off of the critically acclaimed Greg Rucka Rebirth run, leaving massive shoes to fill in its wake.

This leaves the questions: How does this first issue hold up? Does it fill the hole that Rucka had created?
