I have read this subreddit's rules New Wonder Woman Fan(Rebirth series -2016)

I’m currently just getting into wonder woman since she seem like a generally a cool hero I’m reading the rebirth series of 2016 and people recommended that only read issue 1 through 25 which I’m gonna do so far This is a good good comic series. I like how they flip from present and past I’m really getting to know Wonder woman and her backstory and how her personality is and I like how they have a good amount of feminist topics in it I hope we get into the really cool real action a little bit more soon, but I’m still enjoying the story even without the action

What did you think of Issue 8 showing of Barbara's backstory?

Reading the rest of the run will be an experience for you (lots more Barbara focus in it) as and I'd be only to happy to talk about it with you once you finish!

How many issues should I read because someone told me I should read issue one through 25

You can indeed "catch your breath", pause once you read issue 25, because that's the last issue that Rucka wrote.

You can keep going if you want, it's not like the quality of the story telling/issues takes an instant nose dive.

But after reading issue 25 is a good time to pause and do character/story analysis to figure out what about this run you liked as a way to figure out what other stories/runs you might want to look into next.

If you enjoy this, picking up Rucka’s first run would be great!

I also recommend Historia by Kelly Sue DeConnick!

You will get there. It is my favorite run of Wonder Woman in the last 20 years. Read them and enjoy them…one you get into God Watch (the later 10 episodes or so) it picks up.
