Comic book cosplay

This is a blue board which means that it's for everybody (Safe For Work content only). If you see any adult content, please report it.

Post your favourite cosplays derived from western comic books or graphic novels.

Bonus points if it's not Marvels/DC's main cast of super heroes or their respective cinematic universes (though those are obviously welcome too).

Some questions to kick us off:
>Any comic book cosplans?
>What's a comic book/graphic novel with some cosplayworthy designs?
>Your latest comic book cosplay?

I'm pretty new to move from anime to western, and most cons in my country are eastern focused, so I mostly see MCU or Batman stuff. Will try to dump some, but I'm seriously lacking in content so help would be appreciated.

>what is this, a picture for ants?

I'm planning to make a cosplay of The Brand from Saga. I'm not really into western comics for the most part, but I like Saga and Sandman, and I'm getting into other Brian K Vaughn works.

For mainstream comic stuff, I'd like to do Captain Marvel after I build some more muscle.
>>
>>9192034
couldn't have done it without Photoshop
>>
>>9192123
marvel captain marvel or dc captain marvel?
>>
>>9192034
considering that's a woman who shoops herself to look like a man, of course she nails it, because she's good at photoshop.
>>
>>9192017
>Any comic book cosplans?
It's funny you started the thread with Sandman. I'm planning to go as Death to my local comic shop's Halloween party.

>What's a comic book/graphic novel with some cosplayworthy designs?
Although I live in an European country, I barley see cosplays from European comics. I would love to see a good Ekhö cosplay.

>Your latest comic book cosplay?
Catbug gijinka (if it counts, considering it started as a webshow)

I want to do Darkman very bad since I have nearly everything now, but I can never find a good con to show him at. Thinking maybe Comikaze this year.
>>
>>9192715
You should dirty up those bandages, also you should carry around some silly putty as you fake skin.
>>
>>9192071
I'm not sure I agree with them not translating all that well, I think a lot of it has to do with the comic not being big in the US. Kinda want to do Phoebus.

>>9192123
I was thinking of doing Marco, but I'm so pale it might just look stupid.

>>9192715
Seconding what other anon said, but you should also try and tighten the bandages up. Maybe make it like a balaclava so you know everything will stay in place? It looks pretty frumpy right now.
>>
>>9192173
I mean part of me is like "cool I love carol," but the other part of me just wants some shazamfam love.

good luck anon!
>>
>Any comic book cosplans?
I've got a bunch of sparkly stretch knit sitting around with donna troy's name on it

>What's a comic book/graphic novel with some cosplayworthy designs?
I'd love to see some zodiac starforce cosplay & more idw jem that doesn't look like trash (I'll probably wind up doing both myself)

>Your latest comic book cosplay?
surprisingly the only comic cosplay I've done was Supergirl a few years ago...huh

Pic related. The cosplayer on the left is from the comic, with the creator in the middle.

there's such a sad lack of cosplay of her at all the cons I go to. you'd think with the #spaceaesthetic shit all over the place more people would be all over that... but sadly nothing.

>new 52 ruining everything
>>
>>9194401
give the OP the wig of the second Dream that was posted!
>>
>>9194447
Honestly, they were really, really good comics. Kept quality for a while before jumping the shark, too.

>>9194388
>>9194513
Second Dream is far too neat. Morpheus hair in- comic is a 80's punk looking mess.

I do a lot of comic cosplays. Mostly because the cons I have ended up going to have been veering away from anime and video games, so I try to keep my cosplays more relevant to the con atmosphere.
Also self posting my Red Robin. I need to update the shitty belt.

Kind of unrelated but I always like the look of Sandman cosplays and wonder if there's anywhere online to read Sandman without buying 343719y57297359 books?
>>
>>9192017
No pun intended, but it's been a dream of mine to cosplay as Dream. While essentially simple, makes it easier to mess up. Soon enough, it'll be a reality.
>>
>>9195874
Borrow them from a library.

That's what I did; just put them on hold all at once and binged on the series for like a week and fell in love.

I'm planning on cosplaying as Death for an upcoming con.

I want to do one of the female GLs in the future, but spandex is hard to deal with and I'm still trying to figure out how I could make a nice looking construct prop.
>>
>>9196221
i keep forgetting libraries exist

I've been wanting to cosplay empowered forever, but I'm always too insecure in my body and not sure how I would do it so that it looks accurate since her suit is supposed to be tighter than spandex
>>
>>9194343
YES! My friend and I talked about cosplaying as these two years ago, but he's passed away.

You can buy an omnibus, it's expensive, but worth it in the end.

Never really expected to see someone cosplay from Johnny the Homicidal Maniac
>>
>>9198894
Isn't that the comic made by the guy who made Zim? Is it worth a read?
>>
>>9198894
I'm impressed with how accurate this is.
>>
>>9199195
It's less LOLRANDUMB (it's still there, but not as predominant) and edgelord to the max, but does still have some poignancy and depth. At the end of the day, you do feel genuinely sorry for Nny and he's a pretty sympathetic character.

If you loathed Zim and absolutely couldn't handle the random humor, you probably won't like it but otherwise, it's worth going through. It also doesn't take a huge commitment since there aren't a ton of volumes.
>>
>>9197639
My pocket, you utter nonce. Think some company's gonna take a photo of one of their employees puffing on a fag for a promotional photo?

If this wasn't Fahr I would have probably liked it. But because it is... it is just cringe.

Anyone seen any good WicDiv (the Wicked + the Divine) cosplays?

>oh a western indie comic thread
>nothing but saga and comics so old there are children with licenses younger than them

I don't know what I expected

>>9204577
I enjoy both those series but yeah, let's get some more variety up in here anons.

Sorry pic is for ants. I'm having a hard time finding many satisfying Nimona cosplays.
>>
>>9200632
I was considering reading that, worth it to look into?

>>9204577
Feel free to contribute, anon. I've only been into western comics seriously (since I was in grade school at least) for a year or so, so I still have a lot to discover.

not from any of their new stuff, unfortunately. I tried to find descender and some others, but most of their stuff is either a shitshow of bad cosplay (wicdiv) or too obscure/unrecognizable to have picked up much attention yet
