Creative Cosplayer Feature: Ryoko-Demon
Now here's something neat. I've seen a lot of cosplay in my day, and I have to say, this artist, who goes by Ryoko-Demon on deviantART and facebook, is one of the best I've ever found. The hardest part of writing this article was picking images from her gallery - there are so many, and they're all wonderful! (Maybe a Part 2 will show up in the future!)

Donald Glover Is Spiderman...And So Is This Epic Miles Morales Cosplayer!
The internet is buzzing about the recent (and completely awesome) confirmation of Donald Glover as the voice of Spiderman incarnation Miles Morales on animated series Ultimate Spider-Man: Web Warriors. It's about darn time, and while there's already been a bunch of great coverage about this on Moviepilot and tons of other places, I'm doing what I do best and focusing on the fans. Their reactions and initiatives are important and often brilliant - and that's what we get here in a gorgeous cosplay modeled by Nikolas A. Draper-Ivey.

This Amazing Spider-Man Cosplay Marriage Proposal Will Melt Your Heart
The second year of Titan Con held at Cal State Fullerton kicked off at the end of April and it was even bigger than last year. A lot of great cosplayers and photographers came out for the free event. Seeing a lot of nerds dressed up probably confused some of the students there who didn't know what was happening, but that's okay.

I Photograph Superhero Cosplayers, Here's Why Gwenom Is So Much Tougher To Shoot Than Spider-Man
I shoot Spider-Man cosplayers a lot. I’m willing to admit that it’s become my bread and butter when it comes to cosplay photography over the past year. There’s just something fun and charismatic about Spider-Man and the overall Spider-Verse to me. Spidey poses tend to be more dramatic than typical superhero poses, with someone just standing there looking steadfast and heroic.

What I Learned From Photographing Hyper Dedicated Spider-Man Cosplayers
In an effort do more adventurous things with my life, I started going to cons again this year. To say that it's been an interesting experience is a severe understatement. I've learned a lot of things along the way and have met some rather interesting people. One thing that stuck out to me, of course, is how insane the cosplay scenes have gotten.

This Tarzan and Jane Cosplay Will Absolutely Blow You Away
There have been a lot of really fantastic cosplays popping up lately. I even took a minute to feverishly rant about one recently. My social media feeds have been awash with fantastic stuff and that's always exciting. I have a mountain of appreciation for cosplayers, especially when they absolutely nail it. What really caught my eye this time around was this great Tarzan and Jane cosplay done by Lonstermash and Joanna Lynn, respectively. Alexander Skarsgård and Margot Robbie are cool and all, but these two should probably be in their own live action adaption, too.

From Overwatch to Titans: Meet Evey Dantès, Cosplayer Extraordinaire
A lot of scary stuff comes from Australia. It's a country seemingly built for the sole purpose attempting to murder the people that have the stones to live there. It's not all doom and gloom though, cool stuff comes out of Australia, too. Did you know they invented the electronic pacemaker? That has nothing to do with this article, I just thought it was an interesting fact. Another awesome thing to come out of Australia is Evey Dantès aka Dantès Inferno. This twenty-four-year-old cosplayer/model has racked up 87k likes on her FB page so far and with good reason. She's very good at what she does. With that in mind, here are five of my favorite cosplays by Evey (in no particular order).

Sweet Cosplay You Got There LA Cosplay Con
I had the pleasure of attending The LA Cosplay Convention yesterday at the Long Beach Convention Center. It was a one day event filled with fun panels, great human beings, and some pretty amazing cosplay. I wanted to take a second to share a few favorites with you while I try to remember who everyone was. I met a lot of people. Also, there may have been some drinking.

Take A Look At This Epic Grey Fox Cosplay
One thing I admire about cosplayers is the amount of work they're willing to put in for their costumes. Whether they're a beginner or a seasoned pro, you know that what they're wearing isn't just a costume but a culmination passion and maybe a few sleepless nights sprinkled in. Basically, they're a one person props and costume department which is why when I see really, really good cosplay I don't even dare imagine how much time it must have taken to get there. Self-proclaimed "wannabe artist" Diegator is one of those cosplayers that gave me pause the moment I saw his epic Grey Fox cosplay from Metal Gear Solid. Take a look.

Cosplayer Gets The Surprise Of A Lifetime From 'Force Awakens' Star
I think it's pretty common knowledge by now, but I'll say it anyway, the internet is amazing. We're at a weird point in our society where people who would seem pretty inaccessible even a few years back are just a Twitter mention away. Naturally, there are pros and cons to having that bridge between stars and fans. Right now, I just want to focus on the awesome.

Sneaky Zebra Puts Awesome Cosplay from WonderCon On Display
Sneaky Zebra recently teamed up with Comic-Con HQ to show off some of the best cosplay they could find during WonderCon 2016. Set to an awesome song by the band Timeflies, the video has some familiar faces for fans of cosplay and just a bunch of awesome costumes packed into four minutes of pure nerdgasm. Also, there was someone cosplaying as Mugatu from Zoolander so that's a thing that happened. I love conventions so much. Check out the video below!
