Best Cosplay Ever (This Week) - 02.06.12 Although cosplay has been present for decades within the comics, anime, and sci-fi/fantasy fandoms, social media has played an integral role in the thriving community of costuming that exists today and cosplay communities such as Cosplay.com and the Superhero Costuming Forum. In honor of the many fans who’ve displayed excellence in the mastery of homemade disguise, craftsmanship, and sartorial superheroics, ComicsAlliance has created Best Cosplay Ever (This Week), a weekly collection of some of the most impeccable, creative, and clever costumes that we’ve discovered and assembled into our own super-showcase of pure fan-devoted talent. Check out this week’s round-up of the Best Cosplay Ever on ComicsAlliance, featuring The Thing, Bayonetta, Sheik, Angewomon (above), and more!

Sign O’ the Phoenix t-shirt, by Mighty Fine, $25
Available in Phoenix (green), Dark Phoenix (red), and White Phoenix of the Crown (white), in women’s sizes S-3XL.

This shirt is utter perfection; the silhouette of Jean Grey within the Phoenix symbol is simple and chic, and I love that this shirt is available in every incarnation of Phoenix. Personally, I’m quite partial the the classic green Phoenix look.

But more importantly: Which Phoenix are you?

Phoenix Nouveau t-shirt, by Megan Lara & Mighty Fine, $25. I’m pretty much in love with all of Megan Lara’s artwork, especially her Alphonse Mucha-inspired renditions of some of the fiercest ladies of the X-Men, so I was pretty psyched to find out that Mighty Fine put her gorgeous art onto t-shirts: Mighty Fine is currently holding a contest for fans to guess which X-Men lady will become Megan’s next art nouveau muse: THREE (3) runner-up winners will get their choice of one of the three t-shirt designs, while ONE (1) grand prize winner will get all three t-shirts! Head over to Mighty Fine to enter the contest! :D Personally, I’m really hoping that Kitty Pryde and Lockheed will be the next shirt, however, I have a feeling that the next design will probably be Storm…
