I don't think that Quitely WonderWoman picture is bad as such -- I like the shield very much, and the sword and parts of the costume are well drawn. But it does lack the heroic grandeur we might expect. She looks too waifish.

He does seem to draw faces a little oddly at times. As if they're chewing on a nettle or something. The freeze-frame thing isn't to my tastes either, although occassionally it is possible to pull this off and still imbue the picture with dynamic qualities (I think the splash/cover of Batman and Robin diving out of the sky in front of the Bat symbol works quite well, for example), but far too often this style does just result in things looking static. As JB pointed out, you have to work to add life and movement to sequential, static images. Jack Kirby virtually wrote his own visual language for doing this kind of thing and it's a little sad to see so few taking advantage of this heritage.

Examples of 'freeze-frame' art (as opposed to using motion lines) that still manage to convey all sorts of power and movement (both by Frank Miller)

I contemplated a nom de plume very briefly, in my pre-pro days. But it was "Jon Burn", which I thought I might use because so many people have trouble pronouncing my last name.
