Cosplay Feature: Lisa Mancini's Magik!

The Marvel Rivals cosplays keep on coming with various iterations of Magik done by cosplayer Lisa Mancini. Specifically, I have three versions that she's done over the last year or two since the cosplay was made & debuted. I myself am not too well-versed to the character so I'm mostly gonna be focusing on the outfit structure and how it's formed around Lisa. For starters, Magik's base costume starts off with a long platinum blonde wig with some wings added on top. Most likely this is done via a headband piece added in. Her main chest piece looks to be a tank top base in black with an armor chest piece layered on top. It does go all the way up to Lisa's neck so I have to wonder if she had any trouble moving her head around while wearing this. Magik has a mixture of long and short sleeved coverings for her arms.

Cosplay Feature: Stella Chuu's Supergirl Kai

Today I have the energetic and badass cosplayer Stella Chuu! Stella on top of being a cosplayer is also part of a nerd burlesque group! Rather than focus on that (hopefully in an interview maybe?), I have an incredible cosplay she created for San Diego Comic Con this year. The character is Supergirl from DC Comics but rather it being her traditional look, it's driven from a statue! The statue being part of Square Enix's Play Arts Kai line which has designer Tetsuya Nomura basically create more over the top versions of your favorite characters! Have you seen his Batman one? FREAKING NUTS!

Stella's Supergirl is from what I saw, mainly sewn using fabric that could be mistaken for armor if you didn't look close enough. I'm thinking maybe it's some kind of vinyl? Her Supergirl also includes a Nerf Sword which she painted and the poses she makes are awesome! The cosplay was debuted alongside her friend Chubear Cosplay who wore Wonder Woman from the same line of statues. The blue and red colors of the cosplay work incredible together and the wig looks beautiful. There weren't many photos of them in poses so alongside what I have, there are also work-in-progress pictures. Enjoy guys!
