So, apparently Wonder Woman was going to be in the traditional outfit in the new show

See, if I were that fellow, I'd be smiling
Huh.  Well, what do you know?  Apparently Palicki was going to shed the pants and go full-on Wondy on us.

I don't see the internets not keeping up their complaints about the shininess of the suit, that it looks like a Halloween costume, etc...  but its pretty identifiable as Wonder Woman and its mostly comics accurate, right down to the enormous golden belt.  But someone will have to tell me how much tape is involved in running in that outfit and staying inside the outfit.

What a shame.  Too bad it didn't work out.

Still, the approach I'd like best looks a bit more like this:

yes, that's WW fighting Medusa in a baseball stadium

  2. That's a pretty terrific rendering! For a less polished look, I like Jill Thompson's Wonder Woman watercolor from earlier this year:

  3. Ah, Jill Thompson. I was flipping though my Beasts of Burden this morning admiring the art.

    I love how that image makes Wonder Woman look very Greek.
