SecUnit from The Murderbot Diaries feels like an easy choice for a cosplay. But the visual references we’ve had are the covers of the books. We can’t really get into the details.

Some cosplays just feel served on a silver platter. This is one of them. The Fantastic Four are back, and this time they’re part of an anachronistic MCU project that seems to be aiming for a completely different vibe than a lot of the other movies.

With the new season/series of Doctor Who releasing, it seems like as good a time as any to go over how amazing Doctor Who is for cosplaying.

Have you ever met someone interested in cosplay who has a bunch of fancy tools and materials—probably hundreds of dollars’ worth—but never seems to use them?
