The Amazon princess, blessed with god-like super abilities, Wonder Woman is one of Earth's most powerful defenders of peace, justice, and equality and a member of the Justice League. She is considered an archetype for many heroines outside of comic book. Her initial origin depicted her as a clay baby brought to life by patron goddess Aphrodite, but in recent years she has been depicted as the daughter of Zeus and Amazon queen Hippolyta.
It's not entirely terrible, although I would've preferred this:
Which really isn't that different. Better boots, white trim instead of silver to match the boots. Even if they kept the pants and chest-piece from the new costume but kept that, I'd like it more.
I don't really like that picture. It's not the artwork, but the image itself. I can't think of the right words to explain why but I don't think an image like that would be good for the very first issue in a new volume. Just look at the covers for the second and third volumes for Wonder Woman. They look nice and seemed fitting for a first issue but I don't think that this does.

Right. It's like the cover of a Cartoon Network comic.
actually I kind of like it, the image is flat and reminiscent of the ancient greek style of painting http://www.greek-exporters.com/useful_links/ancient_greece/timiades.jpg notice how the arrows are black in the cover and how there isn't much depth to anyting...kinda cool, the art inside the comic itself could be completely different
@yeopop: well like others said before me, i highly doubt the art will stay that way, its probably just a cover, i mean if you look at her in the JLA cover, its vastly different

Good call. Didn't really care for it until you pointed that out.
@yeopop: ugh no, i don't understand the point of it unless the alternate cover is really...REALLY nice, normally i can't afford buying the same issue just because of alternate artwork
The image is cool, but perhaps not exactly THE most enticing picture for new readers. Still, the new suit looks really good, it would've fitted MUCH better in the TV series.
That's exactly what I was thinking: it's not the most attractive picture for new readers.

Deffinitely not.
This is going to sound tacky and probably offensive to some, but I don't know why DC doesn't choose to tap on Wonder Woman's attractiveness when it's a good time, sure, they give her balloon breasts whenever nobody's buying her damn title, but when they're revamping the series they give her a cover that would only work if EVERYONE was reading her title, which isn't happening right now.
Seriously, Lee, Didio, Johns, get your shit together.

I wish they did a better cover showing her with her classic outfit instead of this. This cover seems to be made by a child.

I would venture a guess that they're releasing another cover, too much dwelling on this topic has made me think that image is probably a placeholder, unlikely, but possible.
In any case, it's not exactly a cover made by a child X-D ! Like it was said before, it was probably inspired by early greek art.
Wonder Woman's look was fine how it was.They aren't modernizing it.Wonder Woman has had better alternate costumes than this.Such a disappointment.I bet the writing won't change either.Wonder Woman has the potential to be as great as Superman and Batman but DC can't get it right with her.I'm going to get issue #1 because i'm a fan but if it's not good by issue 5 i'm dropping it.I'm not excited for the new DCU at all.Everything I've seen so far looks stupid.

Give it a chance, A LOT of those titles are not about superheroes, and they look incredibly promising, I never even thought that either of the big two could put out a medieval-supernatural title, and here we have "Demon Knights", I also never thought they would go back to war comics, and what do we have ? "Sgt. Rock And The Men Of War, and even "Blackhawks", there's a lot of promising stuff in there.
