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!

Cosplayer Interview: Leah Stevo!

I was absolutely blown away by Leah Stevo's kindness after she left some lovely comments on my post sharing her work (I wrote about her Star Guardian Urgot here!). So much so that she happily agreed to do an Interview with me last week. I instantly fell in love with her upbeat personality and she's definitely someone super fun to be around with. During my time, Leah referenced her time in high school where she didn't have that many friends given her nerdy interests. Citing her Dad as a big influence, the Intellivision was one gaming system she grew up with. Some of her earliest memories also include playing board games with friends in her garage. Eventually she discovered cosplay and fell in love with it in 2014 with her first cosplay created.

This ended up being an outfit derived from her Skyrim created character. We also went in to talking about her Star Guardian Urgot and how floored she was with the reception from it. For Leah, seeing her cosplay senpais comment on how wonderful her cosplays were made her feel so star-struck. Not only that, but she entered in several costume contests and masquerades. These also proved to be superb in standing next to other senpais like Oshley Cosplay and Hoku Props. Her DiabloXOverwatch mashup with Reaper earned her an invite to BlizzCon. A common theme I noticed with this interview is that Leah is somewhat in disbelief of all the recognition she's got, when I kept urging that she's incredible and super deserving of all of this.

As you'll see in the Interview, Leah is a wonderful human being that I've instantly fallen for hard <3. She mentions how Urgot is her boy what with being the least playable League champion according to Riot. Despite this though, Leah concedes that she's not that fantastic at the game, or MOBA's in general. I say this with every interview, but Leah was an absolute delight and she's definitely someone to watch out for as she's just getting started with intense cosplay builds. I really hope you guys enjoy this :D
