    Default What is your favorite representation of Wonder Woman in other media?

    The title says it all. What is your favorite representation of Wonder Woman outside of comics?

    Easy for me: the 2017 movie. I find it managed to capture Diana as a person in a way that very few of comics have managed.

    I think I'd have to go with Diana in the live action "Wonder Woman" film too (excluding her appearances in Batman vs. Superman and Justice League).

    Although I still have my quibbles with some of the acting choices and other "aesthetic" aspects, the characterisation of Diana was really good. I'll forever wish that the ending was radically different to better demonstrate Diana's love and compassion (i.e. the World War was being exacerbated, in part, by Ares' losing control of his powers without the other gods to "balance" his influence, so he *wanted* Diana to defeat him and Diana has compassion for his suffering and guilt in killing his family).

    I'd have to say Lynda Carter in THE NEW ORIGINAL WONDER WOMAN on ABC. The CBS series was not that good, but that's hardly her fault.

    The movie. Not even a question.

    The first direct-to-DvD animated movie was pretty solid too.

    Easy peasy--Lynda Carter is Wonder Woman through and through and her vision of the character, her world, and her trappings is teuly wondrous.
