I haven't read much of Snyder's work, but I noticed he primarily wrote for Batman, so I was pretty nervous how he would be writing the other Trinity members, but I've been pleasantly surprised thus far.
Circe and Diana's mother-daughter relationship was very sweet and I was excited to see that even though they gave her a big sword, she's still a compassionate, protector figure first and foremost.
I'm not super familiar with the Superman mythos, so Krypton being treated as a flawed, even downright cruel place felt really fresh and unique to me, even though it might not feel that way to anyone else. (I'm not a huge fan of the AI in the suit, though, it feels a little too Jamie Reyes and Khaji Da to me, but they have time to sell me on it.)
In general, I'm glad they didn't take the easy way out and generally maintained the core of the character in a different setting. They still felt like the heroes I love, just under different circumstances, which is something I often feel like Elseworlds struggle to pull off.
Oh, and Batman was probably good too but my bat-fatigue is too severe to really process his comic.
