Reviews:
“Whilst starring a stellar voice cast and always impressive animation from DC, this retread of Diana’s origin manages to add very little new to the company’s most famous heroine. Despite the fact that it all feels a little familiar, Wonder Woman: Bloodlines will still be a worthwhile watch for fans of the character…” IGN
“Bloodlines manages the balancing act of TV animation action with a surprisingly moving heart; a story about demanding mothers and their estranged daughters, and how deep the pain cuts when you feel that who you are is not enough for your loved ones. Also, it’s totally gay.” Polygon
