I want your opinion of the costume worn in the film.It was intended to be a TV series but it didn't happen until two years later(but with a different actress!) Can anyone here get use to seeing WW as a blonde? Didn't this version of the character turn up in any DC titles?

Probably why that was a failed pilot and the Lynda Carter one succeeded. And the story from the CLC WW was pretty good from what I can remember. WW had to fight a renegade Amazon who had teamed up with the evil corporate guy. Big Dog! Big Dog! Bow Wow Wow!

It was a good example of Hollywood marketing: Take a recognizable name and throw out everything else, and people will eat it up, right? Wrong. I have a still of Cathy Lee Crosby in the WW costume in an old issue of Amazing World of DC Comics. I agree that it was a good costume, and CLC looked great in it. But it wasn't Wonder Woman.

Seriously, I think the only time the costume was ever used in the comics was in Phil Jimenez's homage page in one of his issues. It featured several TV costumes (like the biker helmet and the Wonder Wetsuit). I vaguely remember seeing it in reruns a few years later. And from what I remember reading about it, not only was she blond, she didn't have any real powers, right? Geek Watch

The same issue where we saw the reboot legion on earth 247 and Shraki finding them again. Bring back the super-cousins
