I haven't got to the Finch issues yet but the previous issues were only "meh" for me. I found it a mix of Rucka and Perez WW from earlier days and not as good as either. It also created quite ab it of discontinuity with WW in other titles. In her solo title she was on an epic journey that didn't involve much heroing but at the same time she was banging and banging around with Superman and the Justice League. This harkened me back to the 70's and 80's Spider-man when he was all over the freaking place and the editors constantly had to add in caveats t explain that such and such story that you are reading took place before or after some story in another title. It got hard and harder for people to make the leap of faith and thus they decided to synchronize the Marvel U by taking a bunch of key characters off earth to fight some battle and drop them back in like they were never gone but now that they all reappeared at the same time everything was all synched up. A reboot without rebooting. The cool thing is that you really did not have to read MSHSW at all, if you did not want to (but it was a pretty awesome series). There were no stupid tie-ins, offshoots, etc.

But I digress, by the looks of it I might enjoy the Finch stuff a bit more since it looks like WW is going back to being a SH and not taking some selfish epic journey.

Thanks for the responses I have been reading the 2011 series, and really like it, so I wondered if the newest stuff was as good, I like the character Donna Troy, does anyone know if there was any spin off from that?
