The first look of Adrianne Palicki as Wonder Woman has been excreted onto the internet. Good lord. Out of context, yeah, yeah, yeah. The thing looks like something I saw a blob wearing at a convention that she bought from Spencer’s Gifts at Halloween.

Hit the jump.

Prepare thyself.

Adrianne Palicki has been cast as Wonder Woman for the forthcoming NBC series. All of a sudden it actually feels like the show is real. I mean sure there was a script for the pilot and everything, but fuck, this is actually happening. Well then.  I don’t know Palicki’s work, but according to my powers of reading, she was in everyone’s favorite television show, Friday Night Lights. I realize I fail because I haven’t seen that show (yet), but here’s hoping she’s astounding in it.

Is she? Anyone with thoughts?

I’ve never really had much investment in Wonder Woman. Outside of her storyline playing off of Clark in Kingdom Come, and her bad ass neck snapping of Max Lord, she’s never done much for me. This is probably good news, given the details that have come out about the forthcoming Wonder Woman television show. If I was a fan of hers, I would probably be vomiting up blood somewhere.

Head inside for the details.

Was it just last month that we got the Wonder Woman redesign? It feels like forever ago. But good lord does it now seem clunky in comparison to these pencils by Jo Chen. I came across these pencils today on Comics Alliance, who provides the details into them.

Comics Alliance:

Jo Chen’s high-powered rendering abilities have been proven in comics via “Buffy the Vampire Slayer,” UDON Capcom work and “Runaways” cover art, but some of the greatest gems in her portfolio came via these Wonder Woman pencils she made for DC’s licensing department, destined for an unnamed mystery creation.

“These pencil pieces of our favorite Amazon were for an undisclosed project for the D.C. licensing department,” she wrote on her MySpace blog in 2009. “Not sure if the project will ever come to fruition but Sonia Choi at D.C. was kind enough to allow me to display them for your pleasure/displeasure/indifference. Hope it’s the first one.”

They’re beyond gorgeous. Hit the jump for the pencils, and check out Chen’s MySpace Gallery right here.
