Wonder Woman Somehow More Wonderous If Covered in Body Paint

Posted by Nicole Pasulka

Have the cold, snow, and democratic primary got you feeling grumpy and atrophied? We’ve found something that will perk your ass up. Someone finally figured out how to cure every single ill temper: paint a Wonder Woman costume onto a Playmate of the Year and slap her photo on the cover of Playboy. It’s like we’ve always said, body paint + superheroes=magic and positivity.

According to cover model Tiffany Fallon this is because of how much Wonder Woman the character means to people:

I’ve gotten a lot of feedback, a lot from women, just saying how much they felt it was a very capable cover, and yet it represented one of their heroes, literally and figuratively. And I take pride in that, and anything where I can just be part of something larger than me. I mean, Wonder Woman is such a great example of women in general that it was neat to just be a part of something that was spoken of so frequently and so passionately.

Yes, please excuse us while we go and "speak" passionately about body painted Wonder Woman. Frequently..like, for the rest of the afternoon.
