What's your favorite Wonder Woman alternate costume?

[Koriand'r]

There have been so many one hit wonders it's almost become a thing. Which did you like most? The only rule it has to be an actual costume she battled in whether based on her regular look or not. Any form of media and all armor are included. Show a picture if you can.

Diana from the "Absolute Power" alt-universe storyline in SUPERMAN/BATMAN by Carlos Pacheco


Both versions of the WW suit with pants from SUPERMAN/WONDERWOMAN by Bart Sears! The non-white version being Cliff Chiang's design that SHOULD have become the standard but DC blinked in the face of fan "outrage".

Honorable mention to Cliff Chiang's battle armor, which reportedly was under consideration for becoming the new standard Wonder togs. "Lobster-y" arm armor factor and new stylization of the eagle aside, I wouldn't hate it. In my head canon, the rope tying back her hair is an extension of the Lasso of Truth, expanding the original concept of women's beauty adornments as weapons.

Darwyn Cooke's New Frontier outfit.


Aside from the white hair, I quite liked this white version of her Red Son outfit seen for a brief bit near the end.


and the cowboy outfit Carter wore once in the 70s show.

If they ditched the arm thing and make the skirt closer to her movie/Rebirth one and that wouldn't be a bad redesigned new look.

This is nice...except for the hockey gear on her arm.

This is my favorite alternate Wonder Woman outfit.

This one is really nice and shows that Chiang did his homework. The thing on her sword arm is called a 'manica' in Latin, and was used e.g. by gladiators. The shield protects her body and left arm, but she needs to expose the right arm to use the sword, hence the extra protection. However, I would prefer the pteruges (armored skirt) to be completely overlapping, as in her movie costume - less exposed skin.

Also, in a real-life gladiator setting, she would need a helmet. But I guess you have to make some concessions to the comic universe, where you don't want to hide the face of the heroine.

In Steven Pressfield's novel 'Last of the Amazons', he mentions that the amazons tie their hair with a rope, which they use as a garotte in an emergency... too violent for Diana, but a similar idea!

I was so disappointed in DC when it didn't use this costume.
