* TheyWastedAPerfectlyGoodPlot: Before the series came out readers were lead to believe there would be a DivineConflict between the Greek gods of Olympus and some South American gods corresponding to Brazil's general location. In the end only one such god on the South American side shows up and is only tertiary to the conflict, all but stating [[TheGodsMustBeLazy he doesn't even care]]. If one stretches the definition of "god" then Iara and Caipora could count and do indeed show up, but neither of them directly oppose Hera's forces either...and if we're following the same logic as "DC Future State", we aren't stretching that definition anyway. ''Those'' books established that Caipora simply felt the need to step up while the gods were missing, showed Moon and Sun brother gods Iae and Kuat returning, and showed life on Earth being imperiled by Kuat's confrontation with Solaris. ''Comicbook/TrialOfTheAmazons'' also distinctly shows that Yara does ''not'' count Caipora among their ranks during her [[NayTheist anti god rant]]. It's possible Jones simply did not want skirmishes between gods overshadowing Yara Flor, who was being reintroduced to a new continuity with a new origin story here, but the comic just barely had enough time to establish Flor before it was canceled, and Yara's appearances from there have been related to conflicts between The Amazon tribes, rather than their gods, so we'll probably never get that plot.

* {{Misblamed}}: Between "Future State" and this anyone has seen enough of Joelle Jones's writing to fairly critique it, but beyond pacing, characterization, consistency and the like she should not be blamed for her [[DidNotDoTheResearch ignorance of the material she's adapting]]. A new "Amazon Of The Amazon" character was an editorial mandate, and the decision to give Yara Flor her own Rebirth series was a marketing decision. Knowing Jones did not know much about Brazil and expecting her to keep pumping out material beyond "Future State", DC could have hired someone else who was more familiar with the relevant parts of Brazilian culture and history from the start, tapping parent company Warner if necessary. Alternatively, DC could have hired a consultant who knew the relevant information, if DC was insistent on using Jones, to get the most out of her exclusivity contract or something. If DC didn't want to pay another body it could have purchased or directed Jones towards relevant research material with an adequate time frame to study it. Preferably DC would have done a combination of all three, but instead left Jones to figure it out on her own, and most of "it" is written in Portuguese a languages Jones doesn't speak, and other languages that are even harder to come by in the United States, meaning she can only decipher so much while meeting her deadlines. This doesn't excuse any flaws with the comic, nor does it absolve Jones of all errors, but the character and series weren't her ideas. Both Word Press and The Medium fired shots at Joelle Jones for being tone deaf, however.

* AmericansHateTingle: While at most a BaseBreakingCharacter among American fans, Yara is greatly disliked by Brazilian fans (ironically, the audience she was created to appeal to), with many critiquing her often stereotypical and inauthentic portrayal of Brazilian culture.

* JustHereForGodzilla: Some WW fans only read the book as popular Wonder Woman supporting characters such as Cassie Sandsmark and Artemis popped up for a few issues to get some spotlight.

* SoOkayItsAverage: While Joelle Jones' [[SugarWiki/AwesomeArt gorgeous artwork]], strong characterization of its protagonist, and the respectful incorporation of Myth/BrazilianFolklore have all been praised by readers, one of the major criticisms leveled at this series is its ''severe'' amount of PacingProblems. Specifically its heavy reliance on back to back [[Infodump exposition dumps]] that leave very little time for Yara to actually reflect on what should be game-changing revelations. It also suffers from a mild case of StrangledByTheRedString through the character of Joao, who like Steve Trevor before him, is another UselessBoyfriend SatelliteLoveInterest for Yara who doesn't contribute anything to the plot before being effectively PutOnABus by issue #4.

* HarsherInHindsight: After making a splash in ComicBook/DCFutureState, Yara Flor became the first Wonder Girl to get her very own on-going title which received a ''substantial'' amount of promotion from editorial. To the point where Yara was even [[CharacterShilling hyped-up]] InUniverse as TheChosenOne. But partly due to a TroubledProduction that resulted in multiple consecutive delays, the comic was abruptly canceled by DC with its seventh issue being forced to hurriedly [[WrapItUp wrap up]] as many lingering plot threads as possible. Making all of the previous fanfare Yara received throughout ComicBook/DCInfiniteFrontier much harder to read a second time around. The fact that this also happened just shortly after Creator/TheCW backed out on the ''Wonder Girl'' pilot, which was supposed to serve as Yara's live action debut, just adds salt to the wound.
