This Woman Is The Perfect April O’Neil [Cosplay]

When I was a little girl in love with the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, I desperately wanted to be April O'Neil. I was a tiny bit envious but mostly I admired her spunk, her determination, and her bravery. I think cosplayer Cspranklerun captures all of that with her April outfit. Besides nailing the look and details of the costume, she also conveys April's unique personality traits. She needs to find a gang of ninja turtles to hang out with!

“Iron Man” Costume Hoodie In Stealthy Black And Gray

Iron Man's suit is anything but subtle in bright red and gold, but this unofficial costume hoodie creates a stealthy version of his armor. It's made with black and gray fabric that mimics the pattern of the famous suit and it was created by the same guy that brought us this winged armor hoodie.

This version combines the abdomen and elbows of the Mark VIII armor with the chest and shoulders of the Mark VII armor and has a detachable hood.

Iron Man Helps Out The Homeless In This Heartwarming Video

YouTuber Dominic Sandoval aka D-trix is known for his sketch comedy, but he admitted that this video was different than his usual fare. He's absolutely right, in a good way.

Dominic decided to play a superhero for a day and wound up doing a lot more than just running around in an Iron Man suit. A lot more.

Check out the video and Dominic's story about the project after the break.

From the "about" on the video.

Dear Whoever Made It To The Description Box To Read This,

I know this isn't my usual type of video; however, this is something that I wanted to do for a while now. And to be completely honest... right before I went out to the streets, I thought this was going to be a simple video of me being Iron Man and giving back to the community. But the moment I came across the first homeless person something instantly pierced my heart. And through out the day and even up until writing this.... I finally came to realize what that meant. And I think it goes like this.

Every day we walk by strangers and completely forget that sometimes they even exist. Wether they are Rich, Middle Class, or Poor. We forget that these same people are no different from us. We are all human which means we all have some type of struggles in our life. And in the end, someone could always use a helping hand. But while I was busy in life trying to figure out what I want to eat, these people were busy figuring out how they were going to eat. And maybe it didn't help that the food I gave them was probably the most unhealthy thing ever (yeah I didn't think that one all the way out), but one thing it did do was bring some type of happiness to their life. And that was worth it for me.

So to end this Essay, I leave you with this. Be grateful for the things in life, because some where in the middle of a place we never heard of...is someone who might not have some of the things you have. It could be the luxury of food, or clothes, or even what ever Technology it is you're using to read this right now. And help someone out if you can, anybody... because in the end, we all can use a little help that would bring us nothing but a Smile. So thanks again for your time and spread happiness. With love...

-"Iron Man"

This beautiful Pok mon trainer's ring would surely help you catch the girl of your dreams. It's got a ruby and cubic zirconium Pok ball as the center stone with little green gems on either side to represent health at the beginning of a battle. Currently, this is just a concept, but Arts & Gems has already given us this stunning TARDIS ring so fingers crossed that this one sees production, too.

Retro Catwoman Cosplay From A Comic Convention In Slovakia

Cosplay and the celebration of comics and pop culture are everywhere. IstroCON recently took place in Bratislava, Slovakia; in 2012, it attracted 12,000 visitors and ir probably exceed those numbers this year. Professional makeup artist Vanda Pigments attended in a retro Catwoman costume and did some face-painting. It warms my heart to see my fellow geeks in costume around the world.
