My Faith in Humanity is Destroyed. Again.

To be honest, Wonder Woman's costume design looks kinda nice. Not quite as fanservice-y as the original design. I'd probably take her a bit more seriously than the original costume (then again, I'd take someone seriously if they pranced around in the other outfit... because you don't want to be flippant if they turn out to be a crazy).

But Superman's design is awful.

I don't find it to be horrible, just not appropriate for the character. At least it's supposed to be only for an alternate universe and not the regular continuity.

Am I missing a picture? The only one I see is him starting to take off a coat.

Does it matter?

Superman, is well, Superman. He;s not supposed to look like a hipster.

Oh, and Doc, remember that alternate continuities have an annoying habit of intruding into canon via retcon.

[doc.exe]

Only if they prove popular among the fans or the creators... Of course I don't know if we should be relieved by that.

[jgkitarel]

We shouldn't. Fans are an evolving species that constantly mutates.

If the old school fandom gains dominance, then we shall be saved the agony and despair of a retcon. However, if the ones attracted by this atrocity gain their societal dominance by the sheer effect of being the loudest and most annoying, then our hopes are in vain. Pray, pray everyone for this series of events to not occur, or we are doomed, and the fandom will be broken further into newer factions to respark the dreaded Fan Wars.

EDIT:

I remember seeing recently an article which mentioned that the military is considered a more desiriable job than working for Disney. While Disney's treatment of its' employees is very well known, it also goes in with the fact that many do consider the military far more desirable than the corporate world in general, at least in the US.

This applies to the uniformed services in general, despite the caricatures of law enforcement and the military often portrayed in the press in the past.

Admittedly, people respect those in professions where the risk of life and limb are an ever present risk, but when they become more desirable than professions which pay better, you know something's wrong in Corporate America. The fact that corporate leaders, and politicians, seem to miss this makes me both thankful, and afraid, for the Tea Party Movement.
