Her Dad wants her to spend the summer with him”¦”¦. on OLYMPUS.

The other girls are all excited for her but she needs to think about this, he never invited her for the summer before? Why now? And what does he want? What do you do in this type of situation? Call your mum of course. Â This is a good thing as she gets to explain that she is curious about her god side but she is also unhappy that she must leave all her friends behind and so far, away. And like magic her brother appears and tells her Zeus has extended his invitation to any of Wonder Woman“s friends. This seals the deal and she tells her brother that she will join him on Olympus this summer.

Off she goes and starts to invite her friends, but unfortunately, they all have plans. Zeus last-minute invitation hasn“t allowed for others and their plans. Wonder Woman finds it hard to find one of her friends who is free to join her but eventually Bumblebee accepts her invitation and off they go to see the GODS!!!

The rest of the story can be found in Summer Olympus which I may have to read now just to see what happens. This is a nice little story and a good marketing tool for the graphic novel. I think any young fan of the tv show will enjoy this series. Rating 3.5 out of 5
