You know I could have taken the new outfit …

… if all the other bullshit hadn’t come down, too. I’m not opposed to change. Nor am I opposed to pants. I am opposed to a new costume being part of the “Something is wrong with Wonder Woman” theme that I heard last year. As I said a few weeks ago on the 3 Chicks cast, “the only thing wrong with Wonder Woman is that they keep trying to fix her.”

So the reason I’m happy to see the (maybe) return of the old costume is that it can be seen as a passive acknowledgment that somehow the old wasn’t quite as bad and old fashioned and in need of being fixed as was stated over and over by certain writers. And the old costume? It sure as hell sold a lot of make-up.

I’d like to see the possibility of a combination of the two or something else (please without stirrup pants). And that will probably happen maybe for the TV pilot. But mostly I just want my old Wonder Woman back. And I wouldn’t mind a version of this old Action cover (despite my growing fondness for the costume Dinah’s torching).
