Not to be pedantic, but it is Lynda Carter, not Linda.

Good eye, Critter42! We’ll get that corrected right away. :)

Can we send in multiple entries if we have more then one idea?

Practical Polly has to take an early lead on this:

Matthew, I suppose you can send in multiple entries, but if you do, we’ll simply pick our favorite and count that as your entry. If you don’t want to leave that selection up to us, you may want to just send one piece.

is this an international competition?

Comment by tosin 11.07.07 @ 4:57 pm

Indeed it is, Tosin! :)

Comment by Dean Trippe 11.08.07 @ 1:31 am

Do these have to be actual clothes or is artwork acceptable?

Comment by Christian 11.08.07 @ 8:22 am

Christian, this one’s a drawing contest. Sorry for the confusion. The only non-drawing contest we do here at P:R is Fights, Flights, and Tights once a year.

Comment by Dean Trippe 11.08.07 @ 10:36 am

when you say “costume contest” does this limit entries to people dressed in costumes or can drawings of wonder woman in redesigned costumes be included.

Comment by tosin 11.08.07 @ 10:56 am

never mind…just saw the response to christian mind

Comment by tosin 11.08.07 @ 11:02 am

No problem, Tosin. I’ve changed the above entry to say “drawing contest” as well, to hopefully avoid further confusion.

Comment by Dean Trippe 11.08.07 @ 11:10 am

Can we play with the character or just her cloths?
I want to make a younger Wonder Woman and design the costum. Is this allowed?

Comment by Samantha S. 11.08.07 @ 2:33 pm

Sure, that’s cool. It might make us lean towards reviewing it as a design for an untold tale or a future incarnation of WW, but it’d totally be acceptable. :)

Comment by Dean Trippe 11.08.07 @ 2:42 pm

Thanks, I’ve been working on it for a couple of hours and would hate to ditch it now.

Comment by Samantha S. 11.08.07 @ 3:49 pm

Does it have to be hand drawn? My fiance and I work in 3D and not in hand art.

Comment by Gozer the Carpathian 11.08.07 @ 7:26 pm

Gozer - That’d be fine, just as long as you’re sending us an single 2D image to be reviewed (jpg, gif, png, etc). We are totally okay with digitally created artwork.

How long does the judging take in this contest, this is my first time participating in one of these and I am a bit curious.

Comment by Samantha 11.15.07 @ 12:40 pm

Where are the contest rules? What do I need to include in my entry e-mail?

Comment by Christian 11.15.07 @ 8:32 pm

Uh…nevermind - blind bat syndrome kicking in.

Comment by Christian 11.15.07 @ 8:33 pm

Samantha - It’ll probably take somewhere between few days to a week to judge the winners after the final deadline. It kind of depends on the schedules of our staff members.

Comment by Dean Trippe 11.16.07 @ 4:30 am

Sent mine in tonight. It’s also up on DA in case there’s problems with the email.

Whew! Just sent my entry in!

[…] Note: The following entries are the winners and finalists from the Wonder Woman Wardrobe War contest announced earlier this month, with prizes provided by Zeus Comics in Dallas, Texas. We received an astounding 79 entries. To determine the winners, our reviewers rated and reviewed each entry, the Zeus Comics team provided their ratings and reviews, and current Wonder Woman writer Gail Simone contributed her thoughts on each entry as well. We also decided to hand out some extra superlatives. The remaining entries will be available at the Zeus Comics website later this week. - Dean […]
