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. There's also different pauldrons on the shoulders. One of which is smoothed out with what I believe is the X-Men symbol on one and the other is covere...
If there's one cosplayer who's an absolute delight along with being an incredibly positive person in the cosplay community, it's Ani-Mia. I started following her work in 2013 and then met her for the first time at NYCC. Since then, I've really enjoyed staying in touch with her. On top of being incredibly gorgeous in her cosplays, she also is a strong believer in treating people well and just overall being nice in general. Mia is also an incredibly hard worker in fitness and wanting to tone her body up for her own self. It's been incredible seeing her progress along with how happy she's been as a result. Mia's been one of my biggest inspirations when it comes to working out and feeling comfortable in your own body. She recently uploaded a YouTube video which I can include down at the bottom and it really shows how much she cares about other cosplayers on top of her growing fanbase.
Mia cares so much, that she sends out mini prints and goodies to pretty much anyone who sends her mail/gifts. In promoting positivity in cosplay and the community, she recently has started bringing cosplayer appreciation cards and hands them out to cosplayers at conventions. The amount of precision and love she puts in her outfits is simply astonishing. Not to mention her giant collection of Funko Pops and ever expanding library of comics/graphic novels, Mia cosplays characters who mean something to her. Including characters from her favorite movies growing up.
To me, in addition to being inspirational for fitness, she also inspired my creation of the Aquaman cosplay I'll be debuting soon this year. I'm so stoked to show it to her and she's equally excited to see me in it! Mia's created such an impact that every Monday is dubbed MiaMonday where many fans pay her appreciation with why she's so sweet and add in some gorgeous photos of her. Having her following my work and blog is still mind blowing and means so much to me :D.
To Mia, thank you so much for everything you've done for me and the cosplay community. For being so sweet and devoted to things you're passionate about. You're beyond beautiful and have helped me through so much. Love you tons <3.
