I'm just glad she gets to wear pants. Er, of a sort.

And her hair is no good. Sigh. She does NOT look good. Or even fierce. I prefer Rachel Bilson in a WW costume to this.

Yeah, I was like "Maybe if the pants were less shiny? And/or darker blue?"

Because books.
I think I expected a modern, minimal take on the costume, so that was surprising.
We've had gorgeous spring weather for two days, which is great except for the allergies that came with it.

Taking a moment... and I'm done. Man, that was a great reveal and a classic ep.
Maybe it won't look so cheap in the finished product? Yeah, I got nothing.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
She sort of looks like a patriotic dominatrix.
Whether this is good or bad... well that's a matter of personal taste.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe
Any thoughts on the new wonder woman costume?
(1) Cheap tacky shiny costume that looks like a $15 Halloween costume.
(2) THE BOOTS ARE SUPPOSED TO BE RED.
(3) The lasso looks awful.
(4) The bracelets are supposed to be gold metal, not silver plastic.
I know I just came off like Comic Book Guy, but seriously. Gah.
I'm okay with the pants-ness; I've always wondered why the dudes get pants (or tights/leggings/whatever) and the women don't (or get fishnets). (And yes, I know there are exceptions, so I do not need them pointed out to me [I love you Cassandra Cain Batgirl]; I was speaking in generalities.)
It looks like a bad joke. (Also, since I'm being generally negative, the lipstick is awful.)
t edit Also, barely relatedly, I just learned tonight that Superboy (Kon, *not* Clark Kent as a teen) has his own title again. I had no idea! I need to get to the comic store NOW.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
A Victorian dress made from 1,000 beetle wings that was worn by one of the most famous actresses of the era has been restored at a cost of £50,000
Yes I KNOW I wear jeans and t-shirts on all the days when I even get as far as outside pants. BUT SOMEHOW, IN SOME LIFETIME, I MUST HAVE THIS.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Her lipstick bugs me.
Also, the shiny.
