I take that all-American values include prick-teasing, lesbianism, BDSM, and bigamy? (Moulton, the creator of Wonder Woman, convinced two women to live with him permanently. He was a psychologist, God forgive him. At any rate, CG Jung had done the same thing earlier - selfish practitioners of psychology will sooner or later find people they can fit to their designs.) Wonder Woman as a character stinks on ice and always has, and as for suggesting that this skintight fuck-me outfit is the next step to a burqa, these people need glasses, that's all.

Just wish they'd done a better job. Marvel did IMHO a swell job with Steve, and I think that would have been harder.
Speaking of, I'm highly amused that her redesign and the loss of overt Americanism in her costume is casuing more of a stir than Steve's redesign. I guess cause he's still in red, white and blue with some stars, but still it's kinda funny. If I were gonna make lunatic comparisons to comic character pushing the NWO or some such I'd have gone for Steve going from Captain America to .... world wide police cheif or whatever he is now.
