Nothing says "New start" for a superhero quite like getting a makeover. We've seen "Electric Bluperman" (electric blue Superman), Spidey in his black spandex (later revealed to be Venom), and watched Iron Man go through versions of armour faster than most of us blow out running shoes... and now it's Wonder Woman's turn, courtesy of superstar artist Jim Lee.
Her bold new look is shown to the left, and an explanation is given for it here. The comments there make for some interesting reading, especially when you consider that it's the official DC blog that they're appearing on! I kind of like her classic costume, but I'm also not averse to seeing Princess Diana change her look from time to time. This won't be the first time she's shed the star-spangled panties, but we'll see if this one lasts longer than the "Emma Peel" look she adopted in the late 60s. I'm mostly jazzed at the thought of J Michael Straczynski taking over as writer on Wonder Woman, as that title's needed a shot in the arm for years now.

Much better look...she always looked a bit skimpy to me! Not sure she could run in those shoes though.
