Here she is: First image of Adrianne Palicki in costume as Wonder Woman

Opinions of this costume, I'm sure, will be varied and heated among fans. It's similar to a re-design by Jim Lee did for the Wonder Woman comics but, in my view, looks far better.

I don't think Lynda Carter's get-up would fly today. A glorified bathing swimsuit would come across as silly and/or sexist.

Here's what I hope: That the new TV Wonder Woman kicks ass in every respect. That she's funny, smart and tough in the Buffy sense, and that the show will prove entertaining for both men and women and inspiring to kids, in particular girls -- who need some cool heroes to look up to.

  1. not bad at all. I wish the pants and boots were slightly different colors though.

  2. I have to disagree with you, friend. I HATE this costume. She looks like a hooker for nerds.
