I'm okay with the costume (it could use some tweaking, though), but WTF is with the "alternate history"?
No. You're missing the point. The design of the thing is functional. The plan is not to shoot you. The plan is to get the girl. If there's no girl, then the plan, well, is like the room.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Man, why can't I just have a JLU Wonder Woman and a Teen Titans (TV) Cyborg in the comics?
Here's a good overview of her 90s duds. Lots of leather jackets.
Dag - so that's when they got ruined.

Teen Titans (TV) Cyborg in the comics
Right? He's awesome! (I also prefer TV Raven to comics Raven, but not as strongly as I do Cy.)

He is! Just a jillion times funner.

Concur. It was just a well written show.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Yeah. Wondie needed a shrug in the 90s, obviously.
Man, why couldn't the Perez reboot stick? I loved that reboot.

My new favorite Wonder Woman headline relating to her costume change: Wonder Woman Has Decided to Cosplay as 90s Superboy.
I don't know why people think spandex leggings, a bustier and a cropped leather jacket is less trashy than her classic costume.
Besides, we've seen enough variations on her classic costume to know that you can easily bend it towards something a lot more like - you know - a Greek warrior in greaves and a sassy leather battle skirt in the Hoplite manner.
Oh well. It's not Electric Blue Superman.

Probably because it's not a strapless swimsuit. Never underestimate not having to wax.
