Hiya!!! So, it’s winter and everything is sad so I wanted to start posting something new and fun: FEATURED COSPLAYERS. I’ll just be showing off cool cosplayers weekly, kind of like the audio cosplayer interviews I used to post before the busy convention season. If you’re into cosplay, this will be a great way to find new talented people, inspiration, and maybe make friends and learn stuff about people who cosplay!! ANYWAY: The first Featured Cosplayer is Megan Morbid. I met Megan Morbid at Anime Fan Fest 2016, which took place on Free Comic Book Day last year. She actually organized a DBZ photoshoot that I attended and got great cosplay photos at. I asked her a few questions about her cosplay life, so please enjoy reading her answers!
