Susan Eisenburg - Not only does she have the most material to work with out of all of these actresses, the material given is almost always great. Kinda an unfair advantage, but she still is my fav.
Courtenay Taylor - Reminds me a a lot of Susan, too bad the material given wasn't all that great.
Lucy Lawless - A good performance, just not very memorable.
Tara Platt - Not bad.
Keri Russell - I never got into her performance. Doesn't mean she's bad, just not my favorite.
Vanessa Marshall - She's always awesome, and this is no exception. It's cool that movie got some lesser known VAs(at the time)to voice these iconic characters.
Wendee Lee - Sounds too girly.
Vicki Lewis - Its corny, but its supposed to be. Not bad.
Gina Torres - I adore her as both an actress and a VA but this is probably one of her weaker performances.
Maggie Q - I really like her. In fact, I want to see a Justice League movie with the cast they use in Young Justice.
Laura Baily - Hate to end on a low note, but meh.

You know, I like BJ Ward but her voice felt a little too... girly for Wonder Woman. She may have been better suited to Black Canary, I don't know.

Eh, none of these voices really reach out and grab onto me as an especially specific character.
I know I usually don't make comments like these, but we need Liz Sroka as WW.
Based on her performance as Tali'Zorah alone, she can give WW that slightly-naive, fish-out-of-water vibe one might expect from an Amazon living in "Man's World" and be suitably aggressive when the time calls for it. She'd just need to trade the Russian accent for a Greek one and she'd be set: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=43UIaDM_EX0
On a slightly related note, I can't help but notice the character description for this compare describes WW's background and powers, but not her personality, which I think might be pretty important to viewers who take that into account when making their choice. Though if it's because she has multiple personalities due to having multiple writers over the years, I understand -_-;

@CatsTuxedo If none of these voices really stand out to you I think you should go with the person who you thought had the best acting.

@coolgeek176 In voice-acting, it's not enough to simply be a good actor. You also have to make your character's voice stand out from everybody else's.
See, from the 30's to mid-60's (a.k.a. the Golden Age of Animation), much of the people working in voice acting had prior experience in radio acting, and in that medium they had no choice but to make their voices stand out, so that experience was quite advantageous in terms of creating unique and memorable voices that the general public can pinpoint 50 years from their creation.
Unfortunately, superhero cartoons didn't really become a thing until right after that Golden Age ended, when animation sensibility and standards in voice acting took a dive down the toilet. I think it's the lack (or absense) of priority in creating fresh, new voices in the superhero genre is part of why the genre in general doesn't interest me much (among other, irrelevant reasons).
What I'm trying to say is that it doesn't matter who's the best ACTOR if they barely have a VOICE to flavor their performance with. In my eyes, being a good voice actor is a far different field from simply being a good actor, and because this is a poll dedicated to voice-acting, I will refrain from making a choice until a performance that really catches my ear comes along.

@CatsTuxedo
But a part of voice acting IS the acting, hence voice ACTING. And it also depends on the tone the creators are going for. Again, more serious shows would've have over-the-top voice acting because it wouldn't suit them.

And in voice acting, acting > voice, as any voice actor would tell you.
And there are plenty of voices in this VC alone that stand out from one another, for better or for worse.

@TheVengeanceKnight Just because a performance isn't more serious doesn't make it less worthy than the ones that are (I just know I can't be the only one getting tired of that mindset). However, I would've preferred it if Bailey had more material to work with.

Maggie Q was excellent as Wonder Woman. Really surprised me.

Since we have more people on here now, I guess I'd better make a new breakdown:
Farnon - Too deep, too forced, but classic nonetheless
Cawlfield - Terrible acting, but I guess her voice works
Ward - A little old sounding, but she gets the job done
Eisenberg - Perfect strong voice, perfect powerful delivery. She was perfect!
Taylor - Not bad, but a little too soft spoken
Lawless - Trying way too hard to sound like Eisenberg, and too forced. Her acting was decent though.
Platt - Very good, probably a little young sounding, but I otherwise liked her WW quite a bit.
Russell - A little young sounding, but her acting was good.
Marshall - Sounded pretty average, but her voice worked
McDonald Lewis - Sounds a LOT like Ward!
Lee - I guess her voice was pretty good.
Lewis - A little forced-sounding, but her voice worked
Torres - Ugh, can you imagine a more unfitting voice for this character? Ugh... UGH!!!! Too deep, WAAAAAY too deep, horrible acting, it sounds like she swallowed a frog! She almost sounded... FRIGHTENING!

@PurpleWarrior13 I have to disagree. Deeper voices aren't really her natural suit and it sounds a bit forced to me, like a young girl TRYING to sound like an older woman.
Replysaid at 1:35 AM on Sun Jul 22 2012
@AMT I think if she had more material to work with, she would've definitely sounded better. I guess my point was that she had potential. She was the only female voice actress working on the game, and she did make it work (though I will say that even in it's current state, her performance still easily beats Connie Cawlfield and Gina Torres any day of the week). :P
Replysaid at 10:33 AM on Sun Jul 22 2012
@PurpleWarrior13 Actually, she wasn't the only one working on the game. Just the only one whose roles I could confirm.

@TheVengeanceKnight It's more likely one fanboy using sockpuppets to make it seem like many. If solid evidence confirming that scenario surfaces, I'm sure the administrators can do something about it and correct the polls.

@PurpleWarrior13 He's not saying that she doesn't have fans. It's that they all came around the same time and have eerily-similar opinions.

@Wicked One I'm sorry, but just because someone has a different opinion from you doesn't mean they're short-sighted; it's just a different opinion and it just so happens that (at the time of writing this) a majority of the people here thought Susan Eisenberg was the better voice actress for Wonder Woman.
Replysaid at 12:37 AM on Sat Feb 4 2012
Farnon's is the only voice I have known since inception. I think the popularity of Eisenberg is due to a newer generation watching her, but Farnon is the only voice with the husk and dominance necessary to be a credible super hero.

Gonna go with Susan Eisenberg for Wonder Woman. Sure, she started off rocky in Justice League, Season 1, but after that, as spawnguy said, she came a long way and got pretty good--and proved she could still voice Diana in Superman/Batman: Apocalypse. That said, Vicki Lewis, Vanessa Marshall, Keri Russell, Lucy Lawless, and Courtenay Taylor--though Taylor do sound like they're channeling Eisenberg a little.
Gina Torres and Tara Platt sound off, so I think they're miscast. Given I loathe most of Mark Millar's work, I can't vote Wendee Lee on this one, even though I usually do like her work.
