Uncanny X-Men Cosplay: Emma Frost – The White Queen (Nicole)

Posted In: Comic Cosplay, Fanboy Stuff

Emma Frost, once the White Queen and part of the infamous Hellfire Club, has since moved on from being one of the X-Men’s most dangerous foes to being one of their most central members. Cosplayer Nicole has taken it upon herself to don the necessary skimpy white attire and bring to life this powerful mutant telepath!

Created by Chris Claremont and John Byrne back in 1980 and first appearing in Uncanny X-Men #129, Emma Frost started out as a dangerous mutant telepath associated with Sebastian Shaw’s Hellfire Club under the moniker the White Queen. Over the years however this powerful telepath has gradually switched alliances, becoming somewhat of a hero in the process. Sophisticated, elegant and with quite a dry wit, Emma Frost has since become one of the most popular female characters in the entire Marvel stable.

Her abilities include of course her powerful telepathy which allows her such feats as broadcasting and receiving thoughts, mind-control, altering perceptions and memories, psychic shielding, astral projection, mind switching, mental sedation and even the ability to inflict mental pain via touch. She can also activate or boost other mutants’ abilities as well. Outside of her psionic abilities, Emma also has the ability to transform into her diamond form, which comes at the price of her psychic abilities but delivers to her an indestructible body and increased strength.

Uncanny X-Men Cosplay: Rogue (Gabriella Orefice)

by Craig Lotter on Friday, November 18, 2011 at 06:00
Posted In: Comic Cosplay, Fanboy Stuff

Another great Italian cosplayer doing the rounds on the international cosplay scene, Miss Gabriella Orefice dons a skintight green and white bodysuit, puts a streak in her hair, and transforms into everyone’s favourite mutant Uncanny X-Man and southern belle – Rogue!

Rogue has worn a number of costumes and been on both sides of the fence during her long run as a comic book character, being consistently one of the most popular female characters from the X-Men canon.

Identified by her trademark white streak in her dark hair, Rogue packs a powerful punch, possessing superhuman strength and durability, as well as the power of flight. Of course these were all gained through her primary mutant ability, the power to absorb both the power and memory of others through contact with her skin, often resulting in a comatose state of those that she touches.

With a complex and painful background, Rogue is certainly a tragic character, but her powerful resolve and strength of character always ensures that she is a proper force to be reckoned with!

Comic Cosplay: Talia al Ghul | Detective Comics (Klytaemnestra)

by Craig Lotter on Friday, October 28, 2011 at 06:00
Posted In: Comic Cosplay, Fanboy Stuff

Our cosplay entry comes today courtesy of the suitably dark (well for this shoot at least) cosplayer Klytaemnestra, who brings to life a very ready for business (sword and all) Talia al Ghul from the Batman universe.

The now-estranged daughter of Ra’s al Ghul, Talia al Ghul first made her appearance in Detective Comics #411 back in 1971. She has been a long time love interest of Batman, culminating in her being the mother of his son Damian Wayne, the fifth Robin.

Talia has long been a complex character, straddling the line of neither heroine nor villainess. She has committed many criminal acts in her service to her father, but never for personal gain, but at the same time she has saved Batman’s life on numerous occasions as well as help bring about the downfall of Lex Luthor.

In terms of abilities, Talia is an Olympic-level athlete, having been trained since birth in many forms of martial arts. She is also quite proficient with most hand weapons, and her ability as a hand to hand fighter is often underestimated.

Comic Cosplay: Miss Martian (Young Justice)

by Craig Lotter on Friday, October 21, 2011 at 06:00
Posted In: Comic Cosplay, Fanboy Stuff

Cosplayer Yashuntafun has a little bit of fun with this one, bringing to life (and placing her in a far more relaxing environment) the young and inexperienced hero, Miss Martian (a.k.a. Megan Morse) from the entertaining Young Justice animated series.

In the comic book canon, Miss Martian is a Green Martian known as M’gann M’orzz who comes to Earth and assumes a heroic persona very close to that of the Martian Manhunter, as she sets out to fight side by side with the Teen Titans.

As such she possesses abilities which are very much similar to those of Martian Manhunter, meaning that she can fly, shapeshift, turn intangible and is of course a telepath. She also has great strength, durability, speed and stamina, as well as the ability to turn invisible. That said, these do come with the usual Martian vulnerability to fire.

In the Young Justice series Miss Martian is heavily de-powered, meaning that while she is still a powerful telepath with strong telekinetic abilities, she isn’t particularly adept at shapeshifting nor can she become intangible.

Oh, and she comes with a huge boy crush on Superboy.
