I love how in that costume the W is pointing to her vagina. Stay classy, '90s.

I... what?

Look at her belt.

Yes, the Wonder Woman logo serves as her belt "buckle". I hardly see that as a deliberate attempt to have it "pointing to her vagina". I mean, really?

Royal☭ · « **Reply #124 on:** July 04, 2010, 08:35:55 AM »

Who says that it has to be deliberate for it not to be dumb? Either he made a conscious decision to make a belt buckle that points at her crotch or he simply didn't think about whether a pointed symbol on above her crotch would be pointing straight at it.

Either way, it's pretty damn ridiculous.

You could just say "it looks dumb" and I would've agreed. I don't really see the belt buckle as a defining factor regardless.

Royal☭ · « **Reply #126 on:** July 04, 2010, 08:56:44 AM »

What I'm saying is that whether intentional or not, the W makes a pretty definite arrow in composition that points directly at her crotch. I think it's what pushes an outfit where she is basically just wearing a jacket over a bra into a kind of adolescent sexual nadir. Really I was just pointing out how blatant the belt buckle was.

I think they're just putting her logo on her belt like they do for batman and such

Also the fact that the costume is terrible aside the logo is featured nowhere else, so it was either there or across the bust, which I guess they wanted to avoid to differentiate from the old costume/show cleavage.

It's actually on her jacket; you could see it if she'd just button the goddamn thing.

(Also, putting the character's logo on the belt is stupid for Batman and Superman, too.)

Batman or Superman haven't really had their logos on their belts in the comics, but both Superman Returns and Batman Forever did this.

And I point out the W on Wonder Woman's crotch not because it matters whether it was done intentionally or not, but because DC's top female character basically had a giant arrow pointing at her vagina and no writer, editor or artist bothered to bring this up.

It's really not much of an arrow here, no more so that most of the superhero costumes. A lot of them "point" to the crotch as much as this WW.
I think you're reaching a little here.

i'd reach for wonder woman's vagina

i didn't really need that hand anyway

So she went from fighting in her underwear to fighting in whatever she was wearing five minutes ago at Starbuck's.

Can't win here.

It's a distraction measure. Batman wears a bright logo on his chest sometimes because, in the dark, it's easy to see and shoot at and it's the most heavily-armored part of his suit. WW points at her crotch so people will look at it instead of fighting her. It makes as much sense!

Brentai · « **Reply #134 on:** July 06, 2010, 11:07:48 AM »

And then she gets punched in the cooter.

The problem is that mid-to-late 80's/early 90's fashions are sill stupid and ridiculous no matter how many layers of nostalgia glasses you wear (or don't wear, as the case might be for the young kids).

Dude, the 80s rule and are totally in now for a reason, because I thought they were cool 10 years ago and the highschoolers are just catching up.

I look at Vaginas! I'm so GAY

A 'W' is not a fucking arrow. I mean, it points up just as much as it does down due to the central location of the up arrow part of it which counters the two but less noticable down arrows, so in the end, it points no where.

Not every plan works out perfectly.

It does if you're Wonder Woman!
