DC Comics has just given me exclusively this graphic art by Don Kramer, the new artist for the “updated” Wonder Woman comic book. (Copyright DC Comics)
My own thoughts about her: DC Comics Has Ruined Wonder Woman!
Editor-in-Chief Nikki Finke - tip her here.
Loading ... Loading ...
They’ve only done this so it’ll be easier to make a movie.
Total FAIL. Remember “The New Wonder Woman” revamp in the ’70s? Same thing. You’d think they’d learn from their mistakes.
She clearly went to Pamela Anderson’s plastic surgeon. I’m with you, Nikki.
are those Shoulder Pads? sigh. Not The best re-design. Why mess with a classic?
oh god…I can’t get past the boobs. Do they have super powers too? R they going to knock out the audience in 3-D so that we don’t have to pay attention to that ridiculous storyline? Let’s hope.
FYI
All boobs have superpowers.
They can freeze men in their tracks, put them in a trance and make them do things they would not usually do.
Now THAT was a funny comment!
screams trashy biker chick
No you are wrong, she looks to clean to be a “biker chick”
That pair of pants looks like it is going to lead to some serious camel toe. Not to mention chafed… everything, really.
Those pants do make her ass look fat.
Hate it. It’s just so god awful
Her costume looks like a bad mishmash of Spider-Man, Venom, and uh… Thor. The shoulder pads on that ridiculous 80′s, short jacket thing look similar to Crockett’s on the Miami Vice TV series. This makes Halle Berry’s Catwoman outfit from the movie look “inspired”. Epic fail. In the face, she looks like Megan Fox and Angelina Jolie. Does Wonder Woman moonlight as a prostitute? Maybe the designers should look at Jesse Jane’s P*ssy Patrol outfit from season 2 of “Entourage”.
With three kids – age 14, 16 and 22, two divorces, her third “lift and stuff” boob-job, too much lipo and lip-o, hair-gone-grey (appointment next Tuesday) – not too bad. Except the shoes.
The reason that they always fail with this story is because men can’t write/draw about women – they don’t know how. Or atleast get a female consultant. Anyone remember the horrible uma thurman take on a woman superhero. Fail.
The most reccent Wonder Woman titles have been written by a woman: Gail Simone.
While I’m not the biggest fan of her Wonder Woman title, checking out her run in Secret Six is a definite must.
Lets hope this new design is a step in the direction of a Wonder Woman movie. I’m all for setting up the JLA franchise.
There will be no JLA. More like JLW or some other less America centeric organization with todays American bashing media.
Wow, what an amazingly wrong and sexist thing to say.
It’s comic book. It’s not “graphic art”. Seriously, this “snobbing up” of comics is annoying as all hell.
Hate it when this happens.
OK this is a bloody awful costume but take it from me this happens everyday in comics and give it two years she’ll be back to normal. Which is a shame because the character desperately needs something to freshen it up.
As for ‘graphic art’ and ‘snobbing up’ go to a comic shop. have a GOOD look around. Ask them about Alex Ross, Daniel Clowes, Art Spiegleman, Masamune Shirow, Mike Mignola and so on along with all the the comic writers out there. Then call them a bunch of snobs.
It’s not snobbery being a good artist and having a sense of design and being able to tell a story, it’s a skill and if it’s that ‘annoying’ you don’t have to let the world know.
It’s a shame comics only get this press when nonsense like this happens or when there’s a movie coming soon because remarks like this would happen less and a greater understanding of a medium would (hopefully) occur.
Shut up. Just because a second rate hero is getting a terrible redo doesn’t mean the medium is “just comic books.” Be a little more ignorant and close minded, please.
I think she’s wearing..dare I write it… clogs!!!
Not even clogs– %$#*ing Crocs!!!
What’s w/ the jacket– WW might catch a chill?
This is ridiculous!
Stop fixing what isn’t broke!
I think the overall change does not look bad.
But what is the deal with the balloons for breasts? Come on Kramer, it is bad enough we have to endure biker chick urban cowgirl but must we have BarbWire?
Relax everyone.
The old costume will return.
Why?
Licensing issues.
Wonder Woman’s image is very valuable for DC/WB but no one pays for the images of heroes they cannot recognize.
That’s why all heroes return to their original costumes eventually.
And at WB/DC the licensing team runs the creative end of the studio.
Good point.
However, this snarky de-construction is too much fun. I LOVE the bit about her cuff leaving a “W” mark when she strikes an enemy. Since she’s not really WonderWoman, “W” is for…white trash wannabe?…wardrobe malfunction?…world of warcraft?…whatchatalkinaboutwillis?
Sad but true, but then again in this case I’m actually glad. D.C. comics had a noted female writer on WW till recently. Gail Simone.
And they had her move on so J. Michael Straczynski could take over cause he’s more famous.
And this is what we get.
I’m starting to believe that men can’t write women characters.
Looks to me like they dug up something left in the reject file back in the 1990s when everything had to “extreme” and involve leather somewhere.
I think Lytton Strachey’s right, it won’t stick around. It’s too conflicting with the classic image used in marketing for decades. The only way it’s permanent is if they’re using it as some strategy for putting the screws to the Marston estate which still exercises some control over the character.
Well, at least now Bombshell McGee, Jesse James’ first mistress, will find new work.
The colors on the costume don’t work. If she is to save the entire human race she must not have any black and blue in her costume. Black is the color for the dark side, and navy blue is the color for government workers….The dark side / devil side always destroys the earth / human race….GOD and his people always rescue, protect and create….after all GOD is the one who created the world and the human race! GOD and angels would never destroy what he created, it is man (humans ) that destroy each other! The issue should be numbered in # 700! Satan always lose, and GOD/ ANGELS always win!!
She must represent GOD in order to have the ONLY POWER to save the world! The only way that it makes sense! We all know “evil” always bring unhappiness, so she must be portrayed as the ” LIGHT ” and looked up to!!! She should be in white, yellow, red!!!
Yuck. So trashy. No imagination. How cool it would have been to do the old version, a little tweaked so it looks retro and recognizable. Not like a roller derby chic.
Look, Dianne doesn’t know what she is doing, okay. She is in WAY over her head. She has continued the policy of alienating creators started by Gregory Noveck, who she still keeps employed. Give her a year or five and she’ll become more user friendly. In the meantime, expect more insanity from her.
Her boobs are too small.
That would make them a match for your IQ, then.
They’ve carefully ‘de-Americanized’ her get up.
Funny, because DC was drawing her really well for a while, with a big metallic eagle protecting WW’s majestic anti-gravity boobs.
Why couldn’t they bring back her 1940′s bloomers? Those were weirdly hot.
They also keep trying to ‘casualize’ the appearance of super-heroes, by switching in biker jackets and cargo pants.
It’s not a bad idea to adjust her ‘look’ but it’s amazing how ill-considered these decisions are.
They shoulda consulted rock/fashion queen Jennifer Herrema to cook up a kick-ass classic All-American look for WW, get creative for ONCE
Wonder Woman isn’t American.
She’s an Amazon. Which, if you’re going by the Greek mythology that inspired her story, makes her Turkish…possibly Libyan.
Making her All-American is the kind of asshattery that one would expect from the Hollywood machine.
You want an All-American hero? He’s called Captain America.
Wonder Woman? Yeah, if Wonder Woman got in a time machine and went back to the 80s and went to the mall and got her outfit at “Judys”. She looks skanky. Not cool. Not modern. Not heroic.
Awesome rack!
Don’t worry. It’ll go back to the old costume soon enough. Superman had a new costume for a while in the late 90s. Batman is no longer Bruce Wayne. Had a new costume as well at one point. It always goes back to normal. This is just getting comics and Wonder Woman some much needed advertising. Comics need the help.
