About this deal

The very first Wonder Woman outfit looks downright quaint by today’s standards. She debuted wearing a knee length skirt that would be extremely impractical for fighting in, but was mainly about letting readers know right off the bat that this was a woman who represented America and its values. One other contrast in this outfit compared to later years is that her top had a golden eagle on it rather than the double “W,” which she would adopt later on to represent her name. When I worked on Superman: For Tomorrow, in which Wonder Woman played a pretty big role for several issues, she went to the Fortress of Solitude," says Jim Lee, artist, writer, and publisher of DC Comics. "When you show her flying, it begs the question: what is the Invisible Jet for? I wanted to draw the Invisible Jet and thought it was a cool part of the mythology. It looked a little more militaristic and futuristic, then she dropped out of the jet and kind of flew in on her own powers. In my mind as creator, she had the power of flight for short periods of time. So the jet was for more long-range purposes." 12. FOR A FEW YEARS, SHE AND SUPERMAN HAD A THING. Jenna Bush Hager Reveals To Hoda Kotb That Her Daughter Asked Her Husband Why He Was "Lying" When He Said She "Never Looked Better" The '90s were an interesting time in comics, with the stories trying to reflect the discontent that the decade as a whole was known for. So, someone like Wonder Woman as we knew her, clothed in the colors of the American flag and standing up for all that was good, wasn't considered cool. That's why, like Batman and Superman, Wonder Woman got a questionable makeover during this period that has certainly been remembered, albeit not fondly. You may know her from DC comics, you may know her from the classic TV show where she flew an invisible jet to save on production costs, and you may even know her from Batman Vs Superman... but one thing is for sure, you've never experienced anything quite like BEING her.

While Diana is the Wonder Woman, there have been other stand-ins during various phases throughout her history. Orana challenged her for the title in 1978 and won, but she later died "because of her brashness," says LeClear. Artemis later challenged Wonder Woman for her title in 1994, won, took her power, then also passed away. "So the lesson is don't beat Wonder Woman in a contest; it doesn't work out well for you."

Perhaps the most notorious gig was Wonder Woman herself serving in the Justice Society of America as their secretary, which reflected the sexism of the time. Yeah. But also… What Really Bothers You About the Wonder Woman Butt Shots In Justice League? C’mon. Spill. The latest iteration of Wonder Woman is the world famous portrayal in the DC movies by Gal Gadot and she does a wonderful job to bring the character on screen. Other thing is that it is not in her hand to change the costume or any other production based decision. The decision is from the producers and that is DC itself. Well, the thing is that it is the industry way of making money. We have all seen oversexualized male characters and to come par with it there are the equal share of female characters too. But are we still using this point to justify the oversexualization - that the male characters are okay with this but when it comes to female characters it becomes a topic to gossip about.

This might just be the most divisive Wonder Woman outfit in this list. Some people view this outfit as emblematic of a bad point in Diana’s history, due to this being around the time that she was in a story where she had to relearn all of her powers in somewhat of a reboot. Regardless of your thoughts on that storyline, though, a lot of people really love this outfit — like, to the point that they would call this her best of the bunch. And really, we can’t find too much wrong with it either. While several images make it look like she is wearing a skirt, they are actually culottes, split pants that vary from thigh to knee length. "It was never a skirt," LeClear says. "But it's so flowy and loose on the bottom that it flows in the early versions very much like a skirt." Over time, and on more than one occasion, the garment was shortened. "Sometimes it's because of taste, and other times because it's a lot easier to draw. It really did start out as a form of elaborate shorts," LeClear says. It was a bizarrely sexist framing of a feminist icon. And while it’s part of the comic book genre to glorify the hot bods of superheroes, so many of Whedon’s shots seemed to be focused on Wonder Woman’s butt over what she was even, uh, saying. (Especially in the middle, plot-connecting dialogue-heavy scenes.) Tiffany Haddish Plans To "Get Help" After Her Most Recent DUI Arrest, Her Second In Less Than 2 Years: "This Will Never Happen Again" So, are there too many shots of Wonder Woman’s butt in Justice League? From my eye, yes. I counted more shots of her butt than the boys’ butts, and there was an extended five second-long shot where we watch Diana walk into the Batcave, her butt always center of the frame. But does that mean there are too many shots of her butt? Again, it’s a question of taste, but I’m going to lean on the side of “Yeah, sort of.”We go from three entries ago, where we had a Wonder Woman outfit that seemed to be missing a few articles, to this costume from the ‘60s, which is so plain and covered up that it makes Diana almost indistinguishable from a civilian. Diana wore a lot of different casual outfits during this time, but the thing they all had in common was downplaying her former "All-American" side and making her blend in more. It was a smart strategy in the context of the storyline since Diana was trying to spy around to figure out who was framing Steve Trevor for murder. So she gave up her powers and her signature outfit for fashionable ‘60s duds. If you have never seen this portrayal of Wonder Women then the only thing you may need to know is that it was a Sexist portrayal and she was often represented as an object which we all don't agree in today's time. Will it be hard-drinking, hard-bodied Aquaman (a flexing, growling Jason Momoa)? Because of his hastily explained mommy issues.
