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. 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...

Cosplay Feature: Dynamite Webber's Nightwing!

Can never go wrong with Nightwing cosplayers right? Today I have the incredibly awesome Dynamite Webber who definitely has a thing for the former Boy Wonder. Dynamite has done several versions of Nightwing but I thought why not take a look at the classic blue? Especially with the character's upcoming Rebirth series has him going back to the old suit. Dynamite's version is more armored up, with what looks like certain cues from the Injustice design. What looks to be a one/two piece black suit makes up the cosplay. On top of that is coverings of various armor pieces pretty much everywhere. Placed in such a way that it resembles body parts. One easy example is the layout of the abs right under-neath the emblem. Speaking of which, the emblem has the classic look of extending out towards his arms.

Actually, now that I look at it more, the under suit is actually a Nightwing suit since the difference in material can be seen. Though not so much in the photo on the right because that might be a different version altogether. My best guess would be that EVA Foam was used in the construction of these pieces. The blue coloring on the belt and chest looks strong here and is noticeable in the full black outfit. The escrima sricks that Dynamite is wielding have blue stripes around the top.

For the mask, it looks almost plastic and is definitely on the thick end of how it looks. There's also pouches seen on the belt/waist. The hair is also on point and a style that Dick Grayson would have. The photos I have for you guys are pretty amazing and I do hope you all enjoy them. The poses are on point as well and I think Dynamite has an awesome time being Nightwing each time he puts on the suit! :)
