It’s time once again for our Friday comic book cosplay feature, spotlighting the best superhero (and villain) related costuming from the cosplay community.  We’re casting the spotlight onto those cosplayers who we think deserve special recognition for coming up with the best costumes, whatever the budget, and the photographers who capture them for posterity.

Gamma Squad is committed to giving a voice to the cosplay community that thrives in groups like our friends at TheSuperheroCostumingForum.com. Each week we spotlight our favorite costumes and each month we host a cosplay contest. We’ll be picking a theme for each month and inviting cosplayers, costumers and photographers to submit related pictures of their work to our Flickr group to be considered. We’ll then pick our top choices and post them on Gamma Squad for the adoration of all.

The theme for the upcoming month is:

• Super Villains and Diabolical Foes
  

For now, enjoy this week’s selection!

After my post last week of cosplay teams and team-ups where I proclaimed that Gamma Squad was now covering cosplay and I scorned sites that only focus on costumes with cleavage I ran into a big problem. Two big problems actually. Power Girl’s boobs.

The Power Girl costume is perhaps the most popular cosplay costume of super hero comic books. By that I don’t mean that it is the most frequently worn costume. It is the most popular comic book costume for people to re-post, share and click on for reasons that remain a mystery to no one.
