Wonder Woman Wears Short, Shorts After All

Rumor has is it the Adrianne Palicki will need to start busting out the Nair because she will donning the classic star spangled blue shorts like Lynda Carter used to wear.

Anxious Wonder Woman fans were appalled at the blue latex leggings Palicki was found wearing in the initial photo release of her new costume. Shortly after, pics were released with a similar style pant, but more of a cotton material opposed to the latex.

NBC president, Robert Greenblatt says, that it was always planned to have Diana Prince maintain various versions of her costume, but I am not buying it. If so, why not mention that after the onslaught of any happy fans? Why now? Supposedly, Palicki will be seen wearing the traditional shorts in her final confirmation with Elizabeth Hurley, who will be the first villain, Veronica Cale.

I guess it's cool Wonder Woman is going to have an expanded wardrobe. Hey, Lynda Carter did. She had a scuba outfit, motorcycle outfit, and don't forget her roller skate outfit. Oh, boy. Can't wait to see the first pics in her new shorts.

Your New Outift is a Wonder...Wonder Woman

Last week we had a glimpse of Adrienne Palicki in her new, little less than wondrous, Wonder Woman costume. For me the new clothes were okay for something new, but weren't quite making the woman.

Many fans sounded off with their opinions over the net with similar thoughts about the outfit. Especially, her iconic red boots. As you can see the red boots are as they should be and her, for lack of a better word, leggings are more of a cotton material, instead of the former latex look. They even are adorned with the star spangled star field were all used too.

So what do you think? Doesn't she look great in action?

First Look at Wonder Woman's New Duds.

So, I go on vacation for a week and look at what I missed. Wonder Woman put her clothes on. This came out a few days ago, but I thought I would share in case anyone missed it. Here's the first look at Adrienne Palicki in her Wonder Woman guise for the NBC TV series coming this fall.

I think it looks pretty cool, but she at least needs some red boots. I feel the costume has the look of the latest comic book incarnation, which is alright for something a little different, but I'll take Lynda Carter's satin tights over these any day.

What do you think of the new Wonder Woman costume?

The Quest for a Cowl: How to Make Adam West Batman Gloves

I've been shopping around for the best quality and most accurate costume components for my 1966 Batman TV series costume and from what I found, Chuck and Lynne Williams make the best Batman Cowl. I have also come to find out that the Williams' also make screen accurate Robin and Wonder Woman costumes as well.

One other cool thing I found was Lynne's blog "Sewing Cafe," where Lynne shares her sewing talents and a look at how these wonderful creations come together. Recently she revealed how to make Adam West style Batman gloves. When I was about 7 years old, I sewed a Spiderman costume for myself and actually learned how to sew back then, but I am not sure if I am going to attempt to make my own gloves. It is probably better to just buy a pair. If you want to check out Lynne's tutorial on how to make your Batman gloves, check it out HERE.

The Quest for a Cowl: Putting Together a 1966 TV Batman Costume

As if I didn't have enough going on, I am now going to start putting together an Adam West style Batman costume. Between the re-modeling of the live Batcave Toy Room, business, family, and expanding my collection, I am on the hunt to start putting together a Bat-Suit.

Getting an authentic Batman TV series style utility belt is a piece of cake. I will probably pick one up from CY Productions. Clint Young sells other various other Bat-Equipment like batarangs and bat communicators as well. This may also be my first piece for my costume. I can pick one up for $225.

I have some tips for the boots and tights, but the rest may not be as easy. With the hardest part being finding a well made cowl. Evolution Props out of Argentina makes a descent looking Batman cowl. I am just not sure if it is well made or not. Below is a video of someone who picked up one of Evolution Props' cowls, who seems pretty happy with his find.




The quest has begun. So what does everybody think? If anyone has any idea were to get various pieces please let me know.

Tom Welling to Finally Wear the Tights

No, Tom Welling is not wearing woman's clothes like Michael Rosenbaum did in Sorority Boys, but we've all been waiting to see Tom Welling wear the Superman suit for the past ten seasons of Smallville and we are finally going to see that happen.

With this being the final season of Smallville, Tom Welling will definitely get to wear the famous red, blue, and yellow costume. Question is, when? Most speculate it won't be until the last episode airs and others are hopeful it will happen before then. In the meantime, the CW has released this teaser poster (reminiscent of Anakin Skywalker/Darth Vader from The Phantom Menace Teaser poster) of Welling's reflection revealing the Superman persona. I hope the end is more of a full view of the suit and not some quick glimpse. Stay tuned. The other half of Smallville's tenth and final season begins January 28, 2011.
