JL - Paradise Lost


This was a surprisingly good episode. It probably could have been done in a single episode, but it was still a well-told story that gave Wonder Woman some much-needed development.

The introduction of Themyscira and some of the Greek mythology surrounding it was well-done, although some more explanation would have been nice.


Superman's character was once again downgraded, as he essentially lost a fight to Wonder Woman. Aside from that, however, the characters all seemed to be consistent, though Hippolyta's fighting skills seemed to vary depending upon the situation.

The conclusion to the episode sort of fell between heartfelt and cheesy, but ultimately made sense.


All in all, this episode was mostly without complaint, and is probably the best episode of JL thus far.

8/10
