Current Wonder Woman co-writer Michael W Conrad (Who has turned up in three Bleeding Cool stories today) tweets "Months ago we talked about Wonder Woman's body stats— I was thankful this didn't cause more uproar. These were a group decision, I still have her taller and heavier, but this is what we landed on. Canonical until someone says otherwise.
