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: Bodacious Cosplay's Medieval Deku!

I feel that as long as cosplay is around, mashups will be a staple for every character that's been created and is ripe for the portrayal. Whether it's the various gijinkas of animal like characters, to combining franchises with each other like Disney and Star Wars. All forms of media are pretty much subjected to this case and anime is certainly not a stranger. Today, I have the marvelous Bodacious Cosplay as the incredibly lovable Deku from My Hero Academia. The spin on the character taken imagines Deku as part of a larger medieval world. What does that entail exactly? A simple outfit with callbacks to the hero's main color scheme of green and white.

There has been some official like art of this alternate version of Deku so what exactly does the cosplay consist of? As I mentioned, the top piece matches the green of the character. Mainly a green vest on top of a white dress shirt. Gloves cover Brandon's hands and weapon wise, you can see a simple sword act as a prop. The sword is a basic design with the colors being mostly grey. It's scabbard can be seen hanging off the hip alongside the blue jeans.

There are also several pouches hanging in this general area, I have to wonder if one of them houses Deku's hero journal/notebook! The wig is a bright shade of green with a variety of spikes sticking out, it's a great match for the holder of One for All! All the photos are taken outdoors and I couldn't think of a better scenery for this. The way the sunlight hits in some of the pics matches Deku's overall optimism in the show. Plus, Brandon does an absolutely wonderful job in posing, some of those sword shots look BADASS :D.
