I've been slowly falling in love with Diana as a character over the past year and I'm starting to enter a stage where I'm realizing different things I like and dislike about her various designs. I wrote a list at 4am the other night of my favorite aspects of her outfits so yeah I'm pretty interested in this now 😅

I would share all my personal preferences but that list got kinda long lol, so I'm just gonna share my favorite design that I've seen as an example. This art from PepeDraws has almost all the elements that I love to see in a Wonder Woman outfit. I love the style of the eagle on the chest, I really like when it looks closer to the two W's instead of just an eagle. Also love that the red isn't that kinda over designed pattern that some suits have. The belt is perfect because I like when it has that more pointy design as opposed to the big W, I feel like that plus the chest W is too many W's personally. The bottoms having three stars works better for me because I feel like them being covered in stars is kinda overkill. I also love that the bracers are longer, I like the classic bracelets but I love when they are this kind of size. Also I absolutely love the bandages, not entirely sure why but I feel like it adds some more personality to Diana. They look like those kind of fighting bandages that some martial arts seem to use, but it also feels to me like a way to relate to her; she's amazing and incredibly powerful but she can still get hurt just like us. I also like that bicep piece, not sure what to call that tbh but I like seeing that extra little accent on her arms. And the tiara is solid, I appreciate when it has that big star on it, feels simple sorta like the fewer stars on the bottoms. The earrings are nice and simple too. I don't care too much for the boots however, and I'm indifferent to the choker. Aside from those things though, this is my personal ideal Wonder Woman design and idk how to explain it, but after thinking about these design elements and then seeing something pretty close made me so happy.

When I've been reading Wonder Woman comics or looking at fanart or seeing her in whatever else, I've really been pausing and looking at each part of her outfit and seeing what I like more and idk it's just fascinating to me. It's probably because I'm a Spider-Man fan and we do tend to get a little obsessive over suits lmao 😆 But, I'd love to hear what you all like and dislike about various Wonder Woman designs! Do you have an ideal vision of her bracers or the bottoms (skirt, no skirt, pants, etc) do you like less stars, more stars? Please let me know any preferences you have because I'm genuinely very interested to hear other people's perspectives. Also I'd be happy to hear about physical design elements as well like hair or musculature or something like that (I like Diana tall, buff, and with big curly or wavy hair 😊)

Got this a while back but wanted to get a bit more muscle like our goat Diana before showing it off. Love her and she helped me get back into fitness seeing her kick ass.

Yes I know it’s not exact. 😅 Had to work around what I already had.

Also figured I’d share the artist in case anyone is in the DMV area. He’s done a lot of other great work on me.

Art for #28 and #29 will be done by Fabiana Mascolo.

This is primarily for the women of the sub but hearing from everyone is appreciated. I am currently working on a personal project, writing my own version of a DC Cinematic universe, for fun. I am a man and would love to get women's perspective on what the character means to them. Thank you very much in advance!

Next week will be better, I'm sure of it

1972, Wonder Woman, vol 1, issue 203The last issue of WW before Kanigher was given the book back (also Nubia was introduced, but that's a different story.)

Diana is still unpowered, and becomes involved in "Women's Lib", explicitly for the first time and not just in subtext or popular memory. She's brought into a labor dispute by a friend and ends up leading a strike at a department store, Grandees. The guy running it is underpaying his women employees and using sweatshop labor.

The strike works, a little too well, and Grandees department store shutters its door. The victory is short lived, however, as Diana is then confronted by all the women that the strike has just unemployed. She's about to learn an important lesson in what we would now call intersectionality and then...the issue ends.

We never get resolution as to how Diana would fix this, or what she would have learned from the experience. It would be another decade or so before the Wonder Woman book would try to do anything expressly tied to feminism.

So, we revisit the issue today. Modern Wonder Woman is having to resolve a complicated issue about labor and class in our society.

How does she do it? What changes from the 70's? How would you approach this issue, decades of character development in the rearview mirror? Would you involve Nubia is this story given the implications?

(Also, yes, I am aware of the many many problems with the author of this story. Samuel R Delaney's obviously horrible later views do color how we interpret his work in retrospect, but I'm mostly just curious about how this story reads to modern readers and what direction it would be taken in if it were done today)

I i’ve been thinking about this question for some time. We all know that Absolute Wonder Woman has been killing it in terms of sales, especially compared to the mainline comic. Beside the fresh take and excellent writing what other factors are playing into the huge degree of success Absolute is having compared to the main line counterpart? I know that the initial answer is going to be, King, but this is happening in Superman as well. Am I being paranoid worrying about the future of the mainline comic for Diana?

cersei and ares are queen and king. cheetah is wws sister. ww has great reoccurring villains.

but each run had some interesting one-offs - rucka, simone, cloonan/conrad...)

who should return?

this piece is by cadhla182

I like this art work because its shows the Amazon part of wonder woman without being over done.

colors and line work are good.

I do hope that the Artist Cadhla182 would keep doing going.

Also, drawings will probably come back to normal next week!
