A while back when there was talk of a Wonder Woman adapted movie, Cobie Smulders came up as a candidate for the lead role of the warrior princess from the Amazons. After watching her performance as Agent Marie Hill in the record setting The Avengers movie, I think she’s got the job! That’s only if [...]

NBC Fixes Wonder Woman Costume
Two weeks ago we got our first look of Adrianne Palicki as Wonder Woman, and the response was not good (to say the least). It seems that NBC heard and heeded the outcry from fans and made some tweaks to the suit. The pants are no longer leather (or whatever those things were made of) [...]
First Picture of Adrianne Palicki as Wonder Woman
It was just a few weeks ago that Adrianne Palicki was cast as Wonder Woman in the David E. Kelly/NBC television series. Today we are already getting our first look of her in the costume. I am not sure if I like it or not. The costume seems to take influences from both the classical suit [...]

Kelly’s “reboot” of Wonder Woman actually sounds [...]
NBC Picks Up Wonder Woman…Pilot
Deadline reported that NBC has picked up the pilot for David E. Kelly’s Wonder Woman TV show. Whether or not anyone will ever get to see the pilot or if it will be picked up and turned into a series remains unseen (remember Aquaman?) This has been in the works for a while now, just [...]
Wonder Woman #600
I really wasn’t sure what to expect from this issue especially after all the publicity earlier today about Wonder Woman’s costume changes, but issue #600 is a great anthology, with amazing stories from Gail Simone (pencils George Perez) , Amanda Conner, Loiuse Simonson (pencils by Geduardo Pansica), and Geoff Johns (pencils Scott Kolins). The last [...]
Wonder Woman & Superman In New Hands
With the news that Gail Simone would be resurrecting Birds of Prey, comes the expected announcement that she is leaving Wonder Woman (she will continue her work on Secret Six). DC announced today that J. Michael Straczynski will be taking over not just Wonder Woman but also Superman. Straczynski is a very accomplished writer, he [...]
