Wonder Woman's swingin' '60s outfit.
The 1960s were a turbulent decade, one where superheroes struggled to stay relevant – prompting DC at the time, in an attempt to bring Wonder Woman into step with the era, to give the character a new outfit, and new powers. The revamp was controversial in its day, and short-lived, but now her 60s outfit returns in a stunning new cover for Tom King's Wonder Woman #3.
SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT DC revealed Wonder Woman #3 variant cover, by Totino Tedesco, in its November and December solicitations. The cover shows Wonder Woman wearing her all-white 60s costume, including big sunglasses, eyeshadow and a classic hairdo. Wonder Woman’s classic outfit is also on the cover, and it seems as if she is shedding it in favor of her new duds, including tossing away her iconic Magic Lasso as well.
Wonder Woman's Revamp Was Not Popular With Anyone At The Time The change was controversial, and did not last too far into the 1970s; reportedly, a number of prominent feminists were aghast at the change in Wonder Woman, and asked for her classic look to return. Readers of Wonder Woman also expressed their displeasure, and the character soon reverted to a more familiar look.
The all-white outfit that replaced her classic one was a mistake, not only because it took away what made her great, but also because it represented a misreading of what true feminism really was. It had all the trappings of a knee-jerk reaction. Yet despite the controversial nature of Wonder Woman’s all-white costume, new generations of creators revisit that era every so often – including Totino Tedesco in their variant cover for Wonder Woman #3.
