Barring a skirt, though, a superheroine shouldn't be in basically a bathing suit bottom. Too much likelihood of inadvertent flashing of the goods.

So, I'm voting YES to pants and HELL NO to those particular pants.

George Perez says her bracelets are silver: [link]

Of course, I would prefer them to look like silver metal rather than silver spraypainted plastic.

Really, aside from the color of the boots I think the design of the costume is fine, it just should have been executed by a skilled costumer working in metal and dyed leather rather than the checkout girl at Halloween Express.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

I don't have a problem with Wonder Woman wearing pants. Those look like spandex leggings to me, and that seems wrong.

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

So do people know there's this giant rock-thing orbiting the Earth? It's so big its gravity made it spherical. It's bigger than Pluto even.

Anyway, today would be a good time to look for it:

Largest full 'supermoon' makes debut tomorrow for Earthlings eta: Article is from yesterday

At precisely 3 p.m. Eastern Time tomorrow, the largest full moon in 18 years will show its ginormous self. The moon will be so close to Earth that it's already being called a "supermoon" when it gets its act on.

According to meteorologist Joe Rao, if the weather doesn't ruin the the sighting, the moon will appear 14 percent larger and 30 percent brighter tomorrow. In fact, the moon hasn't appeared nearly this large since 1993!

Of course, Rao warns that there is a catch — most regular folk staring at the moon face on probably won't perceive it as being larger. Because our eyes can play optical tricks on us, making us feel like something is larger, the supermoon will only be perceptibly closer when it's "hovering close to a horizon line, near trees, buildings and other foreground objects." It's still going to look like a big ass moon, just maybe not to all of us.

Despite the lyrics to a popular song, it is in fact higher than a Zeppelin.

the hardest to learn / was the least complicated

The webcomic Wonderella (which is funny as hell) found the new WW costume to be inspiring: [link]

So Noah wanted to know who WW was. So I found something on youtube: [link] The show was Not Good.

Noah also tells me that WW is not as good as Star Wars.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

That picture of the wonder woman costume looks like the costume is a drawing and Adrienne Palicki is real. I, too don't mind the design, but the febric choice is bad.

Hey, another silver lining of this show: the Wonderella comic will have TONS of stuff to make fun of.

"Cry havoc and let slip the boobs of war!" -- Miracleman

I don't have a dry cleaning bag! I just bought the suit! But I will remember to save it for next time.

You can use a kitchen sized trash bag, it will do the same thing, but you've wasted a bag since you put a hole in the top for the hanger. A worthy sacrifice, however.
