Cosplay Feature: Wumbo's Monoco!

Photo by David Ngo Happy February! I hope you had an amazing start to your new year and that you're excited to learn about the amazing cosplays that are out there for 2026. The cosplay community usually dubs the one-two punch of MAGFest & Katsucon as the kickoff for the convention season. I spent the last month or so gathering cosplays that as of today's date, all stem from the former! I also am insanely excited that many of these I'm about to share are first time write-ups for the creators themselves. Today, you get a look at Wumbo's masterful recreation of known feet lover Monoco from 2025's Game of the Year, Expedition 33! In looking at some of the photo posts on her instagram, she made all of this by herself so I don't have to worry about adding in extra creators who may have assisted with design files etc. Quick backstory, Monoco is the last party member you add to your team who's a longtime friend of Verso and gained a grasp on the English language...

Fan Interview: Hanne Therese!


I wanted to do something different for an interview and it was a definite enjoyment when I recorded it a few weeks ago. When I say different, I mean that the lovely lady I interviewed is one of my amazing friends who I met thanks to Cosplay and she is a definite big fan of the hobby! Hanne Therese lives over in Norway and has cosplayed several times in hopes to make her own cosplay some day. She runs a few fan pages on Instagram all dedicated to cosplay! One simply titled costume_play which shows off any and all cosplays that catch Hanne's eye. The other is misshabits which is dedicated to cosplayer Amie Lynn! Amie just so happens to be one of her favorite cosplayers!

In this interview we talk about cosplay and what it means to Hanne. How she discovered the hobby and what it means for her to being recognized/noticed by some of her favorite cosplayers--Jessica Nigri and Vampy Bit Me to name a few--Hanne states she's inspired by them and how they're role models for her just like they are to me! Kill La Kill is her favorite anime with Satsuki being Hanne's anime waifu. San Diego Comic Con is one of the cons she hopes to attend to one day as well as visiting one in Australia! Hanne's next convention will be at MCM London Expo this October so she'll get to meet Jessica and lots of her friends in London she's made online thanks to Cosplay! We both had lots of fun with this interview and Hanne is just such a sweetheart! I hope you guys enjoy this interview!
