The time has arrived kiddas, after decades of saving the world, Wonder Woman has chosen to lay her pant-less spandexs to rest and put on a full pair of trousers instead. "
It's starting with Comic issue #600 (out this week). Wonder Woman will strut a completely new ensemble. J. Michael Straczynski is the current writer for thee Wonder Woman series, and he says that, "the character is entering a new age and they wanted her look to reflect that. It's a look designed to be taken seriously as a warrior, in partial answer to the many female fans over the years who've asked, "how does she fight in that thing without all her parts falling out?") She can close it up to pass unnoticed...open it for the freedom to fight...lose the jacket or keep it on...it has pockets.
Another fan asked, "Where does she carry anything in that outfit?" J. Michael responded, "it can be accessorized...it's a Wonder Woman look designed for the 21st century. The bracelets are still there, but made more colorful, tied on the inside and over the hand, with a script W on each of them that form WW when she holds them side by side...and if you get hit by one of them, it leaves a W mark. This is a Wonder Woman who signs her work...letting her enemies know that she's getting closer."
"This is Wonder Woman reborn, literally and metaphorically: fast, elegant, tough, smart...the savior of her people, their guardian and protector...avenging the fall of Paradise Island, searching to discover why Paradise Island was abandoned by the gods. In the end, what she discovers will change her life and the world forever...and she will come face to face with a decision that will mean life or death for the entire human race."
