Power Girl wishes you a peaceful season!

On behalf of the Justice Society of America, I send you my very best wishes for a peaceful and happy holiday season! ~Power Girl

Thank you for all the fantastic support in 2010. I've been costuming since 2006 and blogging about it since then. Over the years, I have expanded to reviewing comic books, then interviewing creators, actors, models and costumers. A year ago I started modeling and it's been an incredible experience. I would not have been able to do it without friends and strangers taking time out of their days to read the articles and leave me notes about what you like.

May 2011 be filled with good luck and prosperity!

Car Show Appearance - July 25th

I'll be making a Power Girl appearance Saturday night at the Flemington Car Show - find me at Comic Fusion, 5pm!

42 Main Street, Flemington, NJ

Check out Power Girl's new look

When I spent some time talking to Amanda Conner in NYCC, she confided in me with the new look she was bringing to Power Girl. I thought it was fan-freaking-tastic! And how could it not be with Amanda at the helm? I promised I wouldn't say anything about the new design of PG until DC was ready to release the info and now that PG is featured in Previews, it's definitely safe to show her off:

FCBD '08 recap

Comic Fusion raised just over $500 for the CBLDF! Not bad for a gloomy Saturday at a small shop. I appeared as Sue Storm alongside War Machine, Iron Man and Iron Lad. Later I changed into Power Girl.

We had a great time with three local artists: Glenn Whitmore, Chris Muller and Rob Kramer!

The Iron costumes were all made or modified by the daddy of the group who dressed as War Machine. All had working chest lights. WM's had working palm lights as well. They enjoyed a trip to the Iron Man movie when they left and got a standing ovation when they walked in. :)

Next up is the Star Ledger party in Newark followed by Kids' Day at the American Legion in Flemington.

FEARnet coverage

The FearNet.com site has been updated a lot since the NYCC. I'm in two still shots and two videos as Wonder Woman and Power Girl. Check out the Day 1 & 2 coverage. The Sweeney Todd video is eerie!

I also discovered that I'm also on the PopThought website! Yay!

survived NYCC '08

This was the best for NYCC (mind you only the third year and my second time going). I'm rather pissed about the plans for next year already because after this wonderful and succesful April Con, the organizers have decided to move the 2009 Con back to early FEBRUARY! They are frakkin crazy!

I missed a LOT somehow including Seth Green which I'm oh so bitter about. However, we did see Blair Butler twice and stalked her. I also did my customary tormenting of DC's Bob Wayne; he got me back plenty when he saw I had changed into a Marvel costume for a contest. *guilt *

Nonetheless, here's the cool stuff I got to see:

There was this incredibly accurate Terminator costume. Luckily we caught the guy walking down a hallway. The T-shirt was even exactly right.

There were both versions of Leeloo from the Fifth Element but this costume I happen to find more impressive than the white bandage one. I just love the pants so much!

This Lois & Superman were actually at the DC booth which makes me believe they were hired. Both of them were tall and built like actors.

It's pretty hard to pick favorite costumes but I'll only base my opinions on the ones I saw in person. I've gone through a few galleries and seen other ones that I never actually saw including an impressive Chewbacca and Black Manta. To see my entire gallery, go to Photobucket. For personal faves I'd have to say something like Green Lantern Alan Scott (this man not only had a great suit but he's the size of a superhero), Static Shock (original & great to see plus he had that unfolding hover disc!), and Terminator.

I love to see lesser known/less popular characters like Domino and Spider-Woman. I wish I would have seen Belle Chere's Anna Mercury in person because I love it and issue 1 only came out a couple weeks ago. But I did see Belle as Black Cat (with black accessories at the contest) and as Spider-Woman. The Gwen Stacys were both excellent. I think it was tough to chose between them. The shorter one in the olive coat won both the Marvel contest and the Gwen look-a-like contest. I was the only one that presented myself as a Skrull and I still didn't place as a finalist.
