Looks like a suit redesign may be coming too:
Not gonna make any judgments until I see it in full but hoping the final look has silver bracelets instead of gold and I can't really tell what's going on with the briefs/skirt (is it a weird hybrid of the 2 or is the front flap of the skirt just out of view because she's in motion?). The boots definitely look like an improvement on the current design though.
Looks like it's all black and gold unless it's a coloring mistake.
Also Power Girls' current suit is supposed to have pants but some covers and artists are still depicting her without them .
There have also been indications Aquaman is losing the beard he has on that art.
Not caring for what apparently is skirt-flaps on the side but apparently none one the front.
Wonder Woman #796 Preview
Writers: Becky Cloonan and Michael W. Conrad
Artist: Amancay Nahuelpan
Backup Writer: Jordie Bellaire
Backup Artist: Paulina Ganucheau
Feels like every Wonder Girl has had a problematic boyfriend/love interest at one point or another. It's like a rite of passage .
Looks okay. Due the angle/pose she's drawn, you can't really see the full outfit. Personally, I've been happy with her current look as it is, so if nothing else, I'm glad she's not getting any drastic changes. I don't know about the golden bracelets, and I've always been meh on Diana having a cape, but no sword or shield is always a plus.
I still think these line-wise initiatives are dumb and waste of time, but if this promo image is any indication, Diana's world won't get rattled too bad, so there's that. Guess we'll see what creative team they throw at us.
What's "Dawn of DC?" I've been out of the loop, is this the latest Crisis crisis reboot/rebirth?
Also, what are the best of the best 'must reads' since Robinson's brother no one wanted storyline? I'm getting Historia; what else should I pick up? Black and Gold? Dead Earth? Endless Winter? Agent of Peace?

Given that the brightened up image for one of the teasers has the WW logo on it I would expect some sort of creative team shakeup with issue #800.And given that Nubia and Yara are on the Dawn of DC art released today I assume they'll be getting something too.
Anyways for your other question re: what's worth picking up, Black and Gold was an anthology series so kind of up and down, Dead Earth went downhill pretty fast after a great first issue, Endless Winter and Agent of Peace were both kind of average in my opinion.
Struggling to remember who was on the main book between Robinson and the current team, Wilson's run was aborted, Orlando's second stint on the book was good but I remember the art being inconsistent, Tamaki's run was kind of meh though it's worth picking up the issues Janin did the art on.
Would rate the current run as solidly above average overall, feel like they have some good ideas/concepts but not sure they're executing everything effectively.
We also had a Yara Flor series and several Nubia minis in the last year.
