10 Comic Book Story Arcs EVERYONE Hated

10. Amazons Attack

When Wonder Woman was held in a detention centre by the US government, her mother, Hippolyta, saw her imprisonment as a declaration of war. This inspired the Queen of Themyscira to order the Amazons to invade Washington D.C.

As a concept, that plot synopsis sounds totally fine.

But when the first issue opens with Amazons slaying innocent civilians (including children), you know Amazons Attack was doomed from the beginning. Because Hippolyta acts uncharacteristically cruel, readers naturally assumed she was a supervillain posing as Wonder Woman's mother, especially since she was considered dead at this point. Even when we learn this is the one and true Hippolyta, you may assume the story can redeem itself if it turns out she was mind-controlled.

But she wasn't. Hippolyta slaughtered thousands of innocent people of her own volition.

Not only that, Wonder Woman barely appears in the story. (She only appears in the first issue for one page.) Amazons Attack may not be the worst DC comic but it is a shoe-in for one of the worst Wonder Woman comics for sure.
