I personally liked George Perez's Wonder Woman #1, with my issues pertaining things added later (especially regarding Herakles -my most beloathed- or the Bana-Mighdall), but I really appreciate this coherent version, written by a self-professed feminist woman that seems to have given a lot of thought to what she was doing, alonside having a sensibility I find lacking in even the best WW stories written by men.
I especially love how she wrote the goddesses, vis a vis other versions. They live under their own version of the patriarchy, they're furious about it, and they're more aligned with the Amazons as a result.
Most of all I REALLY like how it writes Hippolyta. I find her to be a fascinating character whose potential is often squandered, and this is the first time I've seen it realised, with her at the front and center of the narrative.
