Okay, DC. Pat yourselves on the back here because this is a HUGE step in the WRONG direction. This blogpost, along with issue #600 of Wonder Woman came around yesterday, and it seems as though they're trying to take the Wonder Woman we're used to in a different direction. While I am all for reboots when they're necessary, I can't say that I like to see reboots take the direction like this one is taking.
"Suppose someone went back in time and changed one thing, and it changed your life to the point that you had little or no memory of what life had been like before the change happened. What would you do to get it back? Should you get it back? Who did it? And maybe more important…why did they do it?"
Congrats Wonder Woman fans, this looks like your run-of-the-mill amnesia arc. From reading the blogpost about what's to come, it seems as though this storyline coming up is as bland as her new design. And taking the time to eyeball the comments left on the post, the general consensus seems to be in agreement, that this is a huge mistake.
Is there a reason to try to bring closure to offhand comments like "how does she fight in that thing without all her parts falling out?", or "where does she carry anything in that outfit?" I'd say there's not. That's like trying to find out why Superman's costume doesen't bag at the knees. Moral of the story is, don't go trying to fix what's not broken.
