I've been wondering that, myself.
Wonder Woman
Character » Wonder Woman appears in 8805 issues.
The Amazon princess, blessed with god-like super abilities, Wonder Woman is one of Earth's most powerful defenders of peace, justice, and equality and a member of the Justice League. She is considered an archetype for many heroines outside of comic book. Her initial origin depicted her as a clay baby brought to life by patron goddess Aphrodite, but in recent years she has been depicted as the daughter of Zeus and Amazon queen Hippolyta.
What happen to this look?
Same here, I wish they would have kept the original design for her new look where she had pants instead of taking them away at the last minute.@War Killer: That's cool too. I just wish she had pants......
These are nice alternative looks for special storiy lines or alternate versions of Wonder Woman from different dimensions.
However, the original or slight verations of the original look are the best and most recognizable.
Superman and Batman haven't changed very much from their original looks. Neither should Wonder Woman.

That is true ...
to me this look was perfect it should she could kick ass in style. when they change it its like they wanted to make her a sex symbol instead of a heroic icon. don get me wrong i love the classic ww look and new 52, but this look really gave her style and made you see her as more than a sex symbol, but as a true wonder woman
@justice teen: they gave us the fans that costume so we would complain about the change. then they gave us the current new52 one which is similar to the old one but as a compromise *wink wink*. in short it was a means to change a little bit of the way her costume looks but still get great recognition for the little they have changed and getting us the fans the thought that we actually made a difference. everybody wins.
Personally I liked this design more...KICK A S S look and i second that @majestic99 said:
and that also.@justice teen: @cloudzackvincent: @TAneT62:
Favorite pic ever.
These are awesome. If she's an amazon she should look like onemy fav 2 its works with her she is a warrior from greek times, she should look more like a warrior not a super hero. I love the armor look not her normal. that jacket look took away from her greek warrior feel.
Yeah that Terry Dodson WW is awesome but I still would like a little more armor on her to highlight her warrior woman badassness.
I liked everything about the Odyssey costume except the straps around her arms. My favorite part though was the bracelets with the gloves. It made them look fresh and modern and it was a really cool design. The tiara was awesome too. What I don't understand is why we've had chokers with the past two costumes and neither one of them had earrings? Earrings are important for Wonder Woman's look to me. When I was a little kid I drew them stuck to her hair before I knew how to draw ears.
DC decided that readers don't like that design, and changed it to cater to those people they think want to read comics for their suggestive material/scantily clad females.

Is that why DC covered up Power Girl and put her in that fugly costume? What about Black Canary, Poison Ivy, Zatanna or Phantom Lady?
@SCORPIO_CASSADINE: Well, actually.....yeah..... lol you are right.
But this is Wonder Woman they've been trying to redo her for years, but to no avail.
Actually, in help of my case, look at what they did to Starfire, and Harley Quin. What happened to Amanda Waller? She's sexy now. She used to be fat, and offered more realism in the comics, seeing how not every woman in the world is fit and sexy. I'm not complaining, now that I've seen that they put her in Team Seven, but still...
Have you seen what they did to the cover of the Ravgers? I knew Fairchild wouldn't look like how she did on the cover (I checked the preview). The cover featured Fairchild in nothing but underwear, in the snow, just to grab the teenaged to mid twenties male demographic. I think they should change that WW costume.

@spiderbat87: You are right. That's why nobody responded with contempt toward her depiction and costume design in RHatO issue number one.
She was already like that waaaaaay before the reboot@spiderbat87: You are right. That's why nobody responded with contempt toward her depiction and costume design in RHatO issue number one.
@spiderbat87: zol. I apologize. My bad. Well, DC should've changed that if you asked me. They're only catering to males. DC needs to maximize their readership lol.
Sorry again, I was the ignorant one here. I don't/didn't read Teen Titans, as you can imagine.
It was Smallville and it's too Xenarific and over done. She looks like she's wearing a gladiator costume designed for a showgirl at the Stardust in Vegas. But unlike the other fake Xena looks at least it's genuinely red and blue.
The best Wonder Woman outfit bar none was the Dodson costume. It was sexy, cool and modern and entirely Wonder Woman.

i really wish the kept the pants and gave more of a body builder build. also why did they give PG that fugly full coverage costume with b cups??
because of the starfire incident.
Everyone hated these costumes, and were quite vocal about it. And you made a post about how you liked it more.
That's kinda funny.
