Black Alice as Wonder Woman

Black Alice is a DC Comics character who can "borrow" any hero or villain who gained their abilities through magic. She’s also a late-teens/early 20-something who has major ‘tude, hence why I asked the cosplayer to pose with an epic eye-roll to show-off that ‘whatever" attitude.

Cosplayer: Nightmare Loki.

While she and I talk/chat on social media (Facebook and Tumblr), I haven’t seen her in person for at least … seven or eight years? Maybe I’m a bit weird (yeah, yeah, I know, that’s the understatement of the century) but I really do enjoy seeing people enjoy and get better at their crafts and hobbies and then showcase how much they’ve improved since I last saw them.

She’s light-years from where she was when I first met her as Ms. Creeper way back when; while that cosplay was a great and cute Rule 63 version of an old-school DC Comics character I think the word I’m looking for is "matured." She’s matured, a helluva lot more self-confident in who she is and her skills, and it shows.
