Cosplay Feature: RiderCGA's King Daredevil!

Photo by Chazzy Baragiola The combination of being snowed in from the blizzard this past week PLUS being hooked hard into Cyberpunk 2077 made this post about a day late. Apologies for the delay but let's get started! I came across RiderCGA's awesome Daredevil during my collection of MAGFest pics so this is probably the last one for that specific convention. As you'll see from the images I found, Rider has a really awesome look/take on the Man Without Fear. Further research indicates that this is known as King Daredevil and is the title Matt Murdock took during a run back in 2022! Starting from the top, you can see a lot of red and black went into this look for the character. The top includes a red hood that hides just about the top of the mask the character is well known for. Small peek at the horns too!

Cosplay Showcase: Alexa Heart is so AWESOME



I wanted to show off an awesome friend of mine I've made in the cosplay community for today. Alexa Heart (goes by Heart and Soul Cosplay on FB) is a huge supporter on the LGBT side of cosplay having being a part of it herself. She's slowly becoming a rising cosplayer in the field getting guest invites and being recognized by more well known cosplayers. Alexa is always itching to create something to keep her busy and to expand her portfolio. It always surprises me when she lets me know of what her upcoming plans are, I think she has somewhere around 10 cosplays set for this year which is insane in my eyes. Alexa's cosplays are mainly from video games and comic books, she's even taken up photography to produce some of her own photoshoots. One thing I do know is she has an unconditional love for Samus Aran and has so far done a "Bedtime Samus" at DragonCon as well as her Zero Suit. Yes, her armored Varia suit is in the works!

Other characters she's cosplayed as include Frost from Mortal Kombat, Cheetara from ThunderCats, Christmas Princess Peach and a handful of others. Alexa also is great at making little trinkets such as a Triforce that glows as well as handbags which she hopes to open up soon. When it comes to conventions, Alexa is sometimes working for a booth vendor or in cases like I mentioned above, hold panels explaining issues within the LGBT community. A recent one that comes to mind is her being asked by cosplayer Ivy Doomkitty to sit in and speak on her known panel "So They Say You Shouldn't Cosplay" at this past NYCC!

I truly admire the dedication that Alexa puts in when making her cosplays and I'm definitely looking forward to her completed Samus Aran. She's also been a big help in coming up with advice for my blog, one I hope to implement soon when I have all my interviews cleared up! I've got photos of some of Alexa's cosplays that I've mentioned throughout this showcase so I hope you all enjoy them :)!
