You might think, "Gee, Dave-El! That does not look like Wonder Woman! Where's the eagle breast plate? Where are the star spangled panties?"  

This was from a period of time in the late 1960s/early 1970s when DC decided to make Wonder Woman more relevant by taking away her powers and her costume. Yes, a bunch of men thought the best way to empower Diana Prince was to take away her powers.  

Still, Diana was still capable of flipping Lois Lane over her head. 

Speaking of Lois, you might be wondering why is is she dressed like that. Seriously, the mini-dress and the mini-skirt were really big in the late 1960s/early 1970s. Yes, women really dressed like that.



That elderly aunt, the one in her 80s. Back when she was 25, she likely wore a dress with a hemline several feet above her knees. And that was to church! 

Ditto also for the flared cuffs on Diana's pants. 



Yes, those pants really existed. Yes, it was a strange, strange time.   

So that's that for today's installment, Lois Lane Vs. Wonder Woman!  What will be Lois' next challenge? Find out tomorrow.
