Cosplay Friday: Zatanna
Sometimes you just need a little magic in your life. Zatanna Zatara always fits that bill and it's especially true when she's brought to life by the amazingly talented Riddle. Fine work by a true cosplay legend!

Cosplay Friday: Batgirl
It's a bit surprising that Batgirl doesn't get nearly as many costumes as some of her peers in DC's superhero community. Admittedly her costume is more detailed than a Harley Quinn, Poison Ivy or even Supergirl, but when she's done right, she just looks iconic. Take as an example, Astelvert's amazing work on her cosplay of the Burnside Batgirl here.

Cosplay Friday: Mary Jane
Spider-Man: Far From Home is hitting theaters on this long holiday weekend, so it seemed an apt time to pull out an MJ cosplay. But in the spirit of Zendaya playing a very different take on that character (complete with new name), I thought it would be a perfect time to pull out one of my favorite looks at the character. This one is from one of the most beautiful cosplayers out there, Lua Stardust, and is maybe my favorite take on Mary Jane Watson anywhere!

Cosplay Friday: Meggan
One of the books I cut my teeth on as a comics fan was Excalibur by Chris Claremont and Alan Davis. The two men created a really solid team book that wasn't worried about being funny here and there. It's heyday was its first year and a half or so of issues, and they still hold up as some of the reasons I will challenge anyone that lumps the 80s and 90s in comics into some generic summation.
Meggan was one of the breakout characters of the series, a faerie girl in love with Captain Britain and with a bevy of powers including shape-changing, flight, super strength and empathy. She spent much of the first year of the series basically just wearing athletic wear as a "costume" until she finally received this number during the Cross-Time Caper story. Cosplayer Sara Moni brings the Davis design to life perfectly, an impressive feat considering all the character traits that come together for the character.

Cosplay Friday: Starfire
I will make no secrets that I sometimes play favorites here on Cosplay Friday. But it's been nearly two years since I last featured my favorite Titan on a cosplay post. That worked out wonderfully for TatumTotCosplay as I get to feature her absolutely amazing Starfire cosplay today! She knocked it out of the park with her modern take on the character here!

Cosplay Friday: Emma Frost
I wasn't much a fan of AVX at Marvel, but the one great thing to come out of it was the Phoenix Force imbued Emma Frost and her costume. It was simply an amazing character design.
The immensely talented costume designer RuffleButt made her own suit here and it's nothing short of amazing work. Go over to her DeviantArt and make sure to check out all her amazing work there.

Cosplay Friday: Nebula
I have absolutely no idea who the cosplayer is behind this rendition of the modern Nebula (based on the classic 90s design by Ron Lim.) It's some dang fine costuming work though and seems like the perfect fit as Avengers: Endgame debuts and will likely break some records this weekend.

Cosplay Friday: Cammy White
As a teenager in the early 90s, Street Fighter is rarely far from my mind. It was an indelible part of the culture of my childhood. Fighting games and RPGs were my bread and butter, but nothing quite topped the finger ripping action of the Street Fighter franchise.
This week's featured cosplayer Vert Vixen is a jack of all trades. She recently joined Gamestop TV, but she also makes convention appearances in costume, content manages for Gunfire Games and is a pro wrestler in the making. She's also possibly the most perfect being to fill the costume of Cammy White, the game's resident amnesiac secret agent with a dark past.

Cosplay Friday: Serpentor
In many ways, I am a slave to my childhood. G.I. Joe is a property that still holds a lot of sway on my brain. It's one that I often marvel at how little remains from the classic line. Hasbro hasn't produced new toys since the release of the last movie. The only exceptions are the collector's club figures, but I'm not one of the fans obsessive enough to spend $40 on a new 4 inch figure.
But the property still remains heavy on my mind. I have more than one half written Kindle Worlds stories that will now never be published. But I've also considered designing my own international defense force. I could wax on for many more paragraphs about that, I'm sure, but we all came here for Cosplay didn't we?
Drizzy Designs isn't a name I knew before I stumbled across this amazing costume on Pinterest. The alias of one Drisana Litke, she managed to make a Serpentor costume out of actual materials that doesn't look like it weighs a hundred pounds. Her page on Facebook has another half dozen pictures of this costume, plus a ton of other stuff, so be sure to check it out.

Cosplay Friday: Cassie Hack
One of the delights of this year in comics has been the return of Tim Seeley to the world of Cassie Hack and Vlad in Hack / Slash vs. Chaos from Dynamite Comics. It's a series I could honestly read for months to come but alas it is just a limited series.
Yet even should it serve as a swan song to Cassie and company, Seeley and company built a strong legacy for the characters. That can be seen in several amazing cosplays of Cassie, with perhaps Tata-Chan1012's look here the best. Big ups to both her and photographer Laernu Sinatas for making this a reality.

Cosplay Friday: Widowmaker
Overwatch has a unique place in my mind. I think the world concept is interesting, the characters are fascinating and the design aesthetic is nothing short of amazing. But I have absolutely no interest in ever playing the game in its current form. First person shooters hold little interest for me. Squad-based online play holds literally no interest for me. But I still love those designs and much of the ancillary material tied into the game and its universe.
With that in mind, I really like the designs. Widowmaker is one of the most popular characters in the game and like everyone else, has an incredibly intricate look. So it's always impressive when a cosplayer can make the look work perfectly. CutiePieSensei does that here with her take on the character.

Cosplay Friday: Domino
I still haven't seen Deadpool 2 believe it or not, but Zadie Smith as Domino was easily the best choice the film could make. Here the always great Kay Bear brings that version of Domino to life in an equally amazing cosplay!

Cosplay Friday: Harley and Ivy, Christmas style
I mentioned it in last week's Great Art, but I decided this year would be a Harley and Ivy themed Christmas. The holiday themed versions of our favorite Gotham City Sirens are portrayed here by Uncanny Megan and Emi Smile. Fine work from both as well as Emotive Lite Photo!

Cosplay Friday: Spider-Gwen
Along with Miles Morales, Spider-Man Noir and Spider-Ham, Gwen Stacy a.k.a. Spider-Gwen a.k.a. Ghost Spider will soon make her motion picture debut. With that in mind, it seemed fitting to feature the character on this week's Cosplay Friday. Gwensday Addams does an amazing job bringing her to life here. Feel free to check out more of her stuff at her Facebook.

A quick site note
Bonus Typhoid Mary cosplay by Florencia Sofen just because I recently bought the new action figure. Thankfully for toy aisles, she was not wearing this exact costume...
See you in a couple days everyone!

Cosplay Friday: Black Panther
It's Black Friday, so let's celebrate with a little... Black Panther! In the comics, Shuri of course spent several months as the Black Panther. Until recently she bared little resemblance to her movie alter ego. CutiePieSensei has combined the best of comic and film to make the absolute best Shuri as Black Panther imaginable.

Cosplay Friday: Mera
The first feature film for Aquaman is only a few weeks away, but I figured I'd start celebrating a little early since I may be writing my own princess of the sea right now! Amber Heard's Mera is pretty great, but she doesn't look half as fierce as Kira Kelly's version of the Queen of Atlantis!

It all starts with The First! (How I NaNo my WriMo 1)
I set out to write something different than anything I've written before as I started Project TEAM. As I write this, I'm now a quarter of the way towards the goal for the novel as part of NaNoWriMo. And it's started to take shape as a pretty solid character piece as much as it is a key moment in the history of the Quadrant Universe.
Character is important to me in all my writing, but as I worked on this story I wanted to truly write a tale about people that have felt like outsiders all their lives, even as they come together to stop a threat to the world. Kent, Abel and Legaia are far from the only players in the novel, but they are all figures far beyond the basic archetypes I initially built them from.
Those that have followed along with me on my NaNoWriMo page know that Project TEAM now has a working title as well. The First: Hero's Dawn currently looks like it might clock in as one of my longest novels to date at my current pace. But I'm sure I will be able to talk a bit more about that as the novel continues towards its final shape as I continue to NaNo my WriMo!
Today's image is a bonus Cosplay of the DC Bombshells, photographed by John Austin. I won't even pretend that Ant Lucia's alternate thirties and forties era designs for these characters isn't something of an inspiration for me as I continue to develop the earliest costumed heroes of the Quadrant Universe.

Cosplay Friday: Satana
Satana, sister of Hellstorm, is far from Marvel's best known character. She was something of a regular for Marvel in the 70s, albeit mostly in the black and white magazines. Considering she was friends with actual satanists and a succubus with only limited care of who she killed, I guess we shouldn't be surprised she wouldn't fit well in a color Comics Code Approved book. But even as she's traveled from the 70s to the 90s to the 10s, she's always had a pretty cool look. But her first is the best, as shown here by Ukrainian cosplayer Alexia Muller.

Cosplay Friday: Darkstalkers' Felicia
I am unrepentant in my fandom for the Darkstalkers franchise. It easily ranks as my favorite of all fighting games series. I've posted plenty of Morrigan pictures for Cosplay Friday, but I somehow have never given the world the glory of Felicia. Big ups to Japanese based Pattie Cosplay for making this one a reality!
