Just looking at pictures of her, the first thing I notice is her arms. They're wafer thin. That was also my concern with the Adrienne Palicki version - Wonder Woman doesn't have thin arms. She's strong, well trained, and a warrior. I hope they put her through some fitness regimen first, build some muscle. I also noticed she's 5'9", a bit too short for my taste. Especially because Superman is 4 inches taller, and Bats 6,5... she'll spend every conversation looking up at the males. Comics-wise, she's 6'0", to Supes' 6'1" and Bats' 6'2", but on heels, she's taller. Not that any artist remembers that, but still. She's roughly the equal. Not half a head smaller.

Not riffing on her personally, but I wished they'd taken that into account, and I hope there's something they can do about it. I think the very first time Superman and Wonder Woman meet (and I'm talking about way back in the mid 1900's) Diana was a good half foot taller than Clark, but again that was really long ago.
