I've actually never read any Wonder Woman. She always seemed a little silly to me, I guess in the same way that Superman did--brightly colored, over-powered, etc.--but I've been hearing a lot of good things about her lately that is making me think I should reconsider.
I read Batwoman: Elegy last summer, and I liked what I saw flipping through the New 52 back issues in my local comic shop. I was annoyed though that apparently Batwoman is not a subscription title--if I'm going to keep up with an ongoing series, that would seem to be the most practical way to do it, and it would save a little money.
Thanks for all the tips! Your tumblr is what really pushed me over the edge with Steph. I tried really hard to find her trades for sale online, but apparently they're going out of print and the first one is already getting really expensive most places. I bought the first four issues of her series as digital comics instead, because I could get them for $1.99 each, and I LOVE it so far. The third issue, where she beats the Scarecrow and Barbara really starts rooting for her and she gets her own costume, made me so very happy. And I love how adorkable she is, and how they deal with serious issues but keep things light-hearted, and how she gets to look tough and not just sleek or sexy or something.
