Dortmund Film- & ComicCon (MovieComicCon) May 2024

So, last Sunday I was in Dortmund (Germany) at the Comic Con… or MovieComicCon as it is now called.

Before the whole Covid thing I was there 4 times already, but the last time was in late 2019… so, it’s been a while.

It was a little smaller than the last time and it was less crowded, maybe because this was “only” the spring edition and the main event in Dortmund is the ComicCon in the winter each year.

Also, I guess that there are more people on Saturday than on Sunday…

I made only a couple of pictures and some mini videos with the phone… I didn’t even start the GoPro, which was a mistake in the end.

All in all, it was a kind of a disappointment for me.

My main reason to go there is to see some good female cosplays of masked characters from DC and Marvel.

And in that regard… there was verrrry little…. at least from what I have seen by spending more than 5 hours there.

Haven’t bought anything in terms of Merch.

Of course, no Black Scorpion was to be found. I guess only very few even know that she exists at all and I have NEVER seen a single picture of a cosplay of her.

Only the original and stuntwomen in the costume at some promo tours. So, that would be kind of the holy grail of cosplay 😆

No Batgirl or Batwoman 🙁

No Catwoman… not even one! At one ComicCon I saw 4 or 5… but not a single one this time.

Kind of weird as there were a few Harley Quinns and female Jokers.

And getting a solid Catwoman costume isn’t difficult or very expensive.

Yeah, some Spider-girls… but only one of them had her mask on at first …and unmasked quickly as I then saw her again without it later on.

There was a nice female “Winter Soldier” with a mask, but sadly got no picture of her.

There were one or two masked female soldiers/mercenaries with a skull-bandana mask… guess out of a video game that I don’t know.

There are so many dressed up as characters from Animes and Manga… which doesn’t interest me at all.

There were two nice Lara Croft cosplays, a Skeletor + evil empress couple, and a fantastic Alf-cosplay (actually a woman).

And in terms of guest stars… it was… just “ok” for me:

Yeah, Richard Dean Anderson… but I’m not a fan of McGyver. Edward Furlong (Terminator 2) was quite interesting and a panel with German voice actors.

And there was Katherine McNamara, who was in mask and costume in “Arrow” and William Fichtner (Prison Break etc.)

Not bad… but there have been more famous/interesting guests in the past.

 

It would be SOOOO great if there was a ComicCon just with DC and Marvel… but I guess that won’t happen.

That Batgirl movie that was made but not shown…would have helped a LOT to motivate some female cosplayers to be Batgirl at a ComicCon!

Another reason why I hope for some masked women in movies or TV shows in the near future.

Well, the next Comic Con in Dortmund will be in December.

I guess I will give it another try then…. 😉

Leni Klum as Catwoman for Halloween [Cosplay]

Some of you may know Heidi Klum, a German model and also the host of the TV show “Germany’s next top model”.

Lately, her daughter Leni appeared more and more here in the press and she attended her mother’s yearly Hollywood Halloween party.

While her mother was costumed as a…. giant worm(!), Leni was dressed up as Catwoman.

Check out the pictures:

(click to enlarge)

Well, that costume is already a hundred times sexier than the one on the latest Catwoman in “The Batman” movie.

The cowl is ok and disguises her well enough, it doesn’t really fit to the suit though as it has the stitches on it and the suit hasn’t.

Sadly she doesn’t wear Catwoman gloves, possibly my biggest issue.

The boots are nice, but not the best choice.

Her suit is simple but very sexy. Not sure about the material, the press mostly says it is latex, but they often label a lot of stuff as latex that isn’t actually latex.

What certainly is helping a lot is that Leni is pretty well “equipped” and fills the suit out very nicely 😉

I wouldn’t mind being robbed by such a Catwoman!

 

This particular picture of her produced a little scandal as she wasn’t 18 back then and some complained:

….I don’t.

Batgirl cosplay #16 – Awesome “Punchline” storyline

[Post 2 of 2 for today]

It’s time for some more Batgirl cosplay pictures!

If you don’t know these ones yet….you are very lucky as you now will see some great cosplay pictures!

And the chances are quite high that you will love these pictures 😉

(click on the picture to enlarge it to full size!)

I don’t think I have promised too much! 😉

The model looks stunning and I really like the costume! The cowl is really good as well.

I LOVE all the secret identity issues in many of the pictures. Looks like villainess Punchline found out somehow that Batgirl is Barbara Gordon, as we only have these pictures…we have to speculate how she did it.

The third picture is soooo great, Punchline with pictures of Batgirl and Barbara Gordon….while Batgirl has her cowl in her hands as she masks…or unmasks(?)….herself.

Pictures 6 and 7 are ….well…..fantastic! I love how Punchline presents the cowl of Batgirl triumphantly while the battle-bruised Batgirl realizes the predicament she is now in!

As Punchline knows her secret identity she is now totally at her mercy. Of course, there would be a way out of it for Batgirl if she can free herself…..but as a heroine, she can’t really kill a villain. Or can she? 😉

The last picture isn’t from that storyline, but I just love it as well!

Batgirl tied up, fighting against her restraints…while Harley and Poison Ivy are playing with her 😉

Love how Harley yanks at one Bat-ear while her other hand is toying with the chin strap of Batgirl’s cowl!

Looks like these two are curious……to find out who is hiding underneath that mask!

What I would give to have such a scene in a movie or TV show!!!! But sadly the big majority of the villains are not curious enough to unmask the hero/heroine.

And if they find out who is behind the mask….they do it without yanking the mask off (I hate when that happens).

Cosplay: Catwoman, Harley Quinn, Black Cat and more [pixiequinncosplay]

In the future, I wanna make some more posts with cosplayers that I mostly found on Instagram.

Today I wanna start with pixiequinncosplay.

Some of my favorite pictures:

(click on the image to enlage it to full size)

And as a little bonus an interesting video with an unmasking in it:

https://www.instagram.com/p/CMp8MEhnRxS/

I really like her Catwoman cosplay. I do prefer the rubber cowl mask in pictures 3 and 5 over the cloth version that can be found in the other pictures.

Sadly you can’t find any pictures of her as Spider-Gwen with the mask on. But that’s a rather common “problem” with cosplays that involve a full face mask.

I guess many cosplayers then think “If I put the mask on nobody will know it’s me”. Yeah, that is a point surely, but if you have some pictures without the mask as an addition you don’t have that “problem” if you have some pictures with the mask on as well.

For me, such a cosplay is only “complete” if there are shots with the mask on….and yeah, another reason “may” be that I like to see masked women 😉

But if someone makes a Batman cosplay for example you won’t find many pictures where someone is wearing the suit but not the cowl.

 

As you know I’m not the biggest fan of eye masks, but I think her Harley Quinn and Black Cat cosplays are well done as well.

The costume is good, and the cowl is GREAT! (from the batman video games)

German Comic Con Dortmund 2017 [My 1st!]

*EDIT* Added another video…

As promised, I wanna share my impressions from my first comic con in Dortmund yesterday.

As I understand it we didn’t have comic cons in germany before 2015. And now we have the “german comic con” in 4 different cities throughout the year.

In addition there is the “comic con germany” that is just once a year.

As I heard it was very crowded on saturday. Last year they used 4 big halls, and the folks had enough space. This year they put the con in just 2 big halls…

Well, I was there on sunday. It was crowded, but not on a really annoying scale.

I was hoping to see some Catwomen, Batgirls and other masked, female heroines and villainesses.

There were lots of lots of women/girls that did cosplays from japanese mangas… and lots of Harley Quinn’s. And there were a lot of female cosplayers that “did” Star Wars and Game of Thrones.

But regarding masked women from DC or Marvel… well I saw/noticed one Black Cat, two Batgirls, three Catwomen, one Spider-girl (unmasked) and some masked assassin from the Court of owls. I hoped for more… and no Batwoman, no Canary, no masked Spier-girl/Gwen, no Spoiler.  Of course I was only there on one day and of course you can’t see every cosplayer.

I definitely need to improve on my handling of my photo camera and the “photographer” skills. But I will learn from that experience.

From the material I have I edited around 10 really short clips into one short video.

But let’s start with some pictures (nearly all masked women are in the video) :

(click on the picture to enlarge it to full size)

And here comes MY self-filmed video:

In the video you should find 3 Catwomen and one Batgirl (my favorite cosplay that day).

And if you look closely, you will find a second batgirl, without cowl (not facing the camera)

*EDIT* You can see that Batgirl and more great cosplays in this official video at around 0:40:

 

Well, actually these were my first Batgirl/Catwomen that I saw in “real” life. And that was a pretty great experience. I will try to attend more comic cons in the future. And I’m pretty sure that then I can present better picture/video material. It would be great if there was a con just for DC and Marvel.

But -after all- it was a promising start…

Thanks to all the cosplayers! Great Job!

Feel free to comment!

Did you visited comic cons in the past? What are your experiences?

 

Batgirl cosplay – Helena Bertinelli style

The Helena Bertinelli “Batgirl style” was always my favorite Batgirl design. Well she was only a short time under that cowl, but I really like the all black design. She even modified the regular batgirl mask to the full face mask that Cassandra wore afterwards.

It’s very rare to find cosplays on that batgirl type, so it’s time to post one here:

(Preview)

 

And here is the video:

Wow….short video, but what a costume!

Love the black hair, boots and gloves. Very rare!

And, there are cosplay pictures as well:

Well, all these great pictures and the batgirl in  the video are from Kamiko-Zero.

Batwoman Cosplay #2 (and more)

Batwoman Cosplay:

Well, the eyes look a little bit spooky, but besides that a great cosplay.

Sorry, don’t know who made it.

And here are some unmasking collages (one slightly edited to avoid…problems 😉 ):

(click to enlarge to full size)

Thanks a lot for sending me these pictures! Good work!

Batgirl Cosplay #14 +a Dina Meyer…

….secret extra picture! You all (should/must) know the Batgirl from the Birds of Prey TV-show that was played by Dina Meyer.

Well in this cosplay we have a cosplayer that made such a Batgirl outfit!

And I’ve added a great, sexy picture from Dina Meyer where she puts on her Batgirl outfit! 🙂

 

And here are the pictures:

(click to enlarge)

Oh man!

I guess I would have some serious….difficulties…making such pictures of her 😆

As I may have told before…the Birds of prey tv-show batgirl outfit is simply the best! Black rubber and black leather.. great!

With the exception of the mask desgin….well, as I said in the Hall of Fame section.

Your opinion?

 

Cosplay: Spider-woman #3

Thanks to a friendly user named “Jessica Drew”…. I got these pictures of a Spider-woman cosplay. And they are worth sharing 🙂

 

All in all there are 9 pictures incl. some shots where she unmasks for the camera:

(click to enlarge)

If you are looking for the cosplayer…. here she is:

LINK: Cosplayer

Nice outfit! And I love the spider-woman mask…. It covers her secret identity well.

Spider-girl unmasks in front of the camera!

Well, in these pictures you can see a spider-girl in her bedroom 😉

And after some posing she carelessly pulls off her mask….

Big mistake!

 

And here are all 4 pictures, including an unmasked shot:

(click to enlarge)

I love these skintight suits with an attached mask 🙂

 

Catwoman Cosplay #18

This catwoman costume is pretty different… an interesting desgin!

Check it out!

 

And here is the complete set with 7 pictures in full size:

(click to enlarge)

Your opinion?

I like the combination of “cowl” and mask. Still the mask would come off way too easy…

Well, unless both are connected 😉
