 It's a fabulous moment in history for this country to reach 250 years of liberty and freedom. For those of us, the inheritors of the liberty and freedom that we share from the blood and sacrifice of all those who won it, we should renew our gratitude, remembering those heroes.

Body Paint Artist Covers Both Characters

Image
While most fan fiction writers and cosplay artists indulge in bringing their own talents to these timeless archetype characters, a few people get to stand out among their fellow fans and wind up creating something extraordinary. Kay Pike, a Canadian artist and body painter, takes careful practice to use herself as the canvas. Each week she talks to her fans and paints her body to match a lot of pop culture characters. She's been able to do Captain America once and Wonder Woman twice in a few different costumes. I've saved a few of her camera shots of the finished products and posted them here for all of you to enjoy. Do you like her artwork style? She's designed them to start as a 2D painting only for her image to come alive to an action pose. As far as her classic wonder woman goes, I think she really got the hair flowing correctly and was able to accentuate the ripping muscles in her arms and abdomen. Some fans tend to accentuate Wonder Woman's beauty as he...

Top 5 Cliches for Wonder Woman

Sometimes I feel like I’m one of the few people in the fanfiction and superhero space who truly understands Wonder Woman. Diana Prince or known as Diana of Themyscira, is not just another superhero who can be reshaped endlessly to fit whatever the zeitgeist happens to be. She is an icon. And with an icon, there is always a danger in confusing “modernizing” with “replacing.” A character can be written for a modern audience without having the pillars of that character torn down. The world around Wonder Woman can change. The conflicts can change. The supporting cast, setting, and tone can evolve. But Diana herself should still feel like Diana. A true icon does not survive by chasing every trend. She survives because something at the heart of her remains recognizable. Here are a few trends around Wonder Woman that I think modern comic writers and fanfiction authors should be more careful with: “Because She Grew Up on an Island Full of Women” One common assumption is that because Diana grew...

Breast Cancer Awareness Month

Image
I know this is an older campaign, but it's still very relevant to the world we are living in today. It's considered to be one of the largest pep rally in the world lending not only to the mission of "creating awareness", but also lending support and strength to those who have bravely fought against the ravaging breast cancer disease. As Wonder Woman so directly illustrates, we need all women to make regular appointments and take responsibilities for their own health. Together we can find a cure. Together we can raise hope for those battling it right now.

Keeping It Basic on Valentines

At the agency's headquarters, Steve Rogers had an office. He rarely used it, preferring to be in the field constantly. It was late in the agency's building, Steve sat at his desk in his office with most of the usual stacks of files moved to another location in the room. His latest attention was to a old ratty book that looked like it had yellowed pages. He flipped through it carefully, but then set it down away from the center of the desk. He then pulled to the center a ream of scrap paper, a small bottle of Elmer's glue and a jar of glitter. He sat there at the desk and again pondered on what kind of direction he was going to take. "Com'mon, Steve," he mumbled to himself. "You've punched out Hitler over 50 times, but somehow you've got to know how to make this simple little thing look great. Is this befitting a princess?" At that moment, Diana had just arrived outside his wide open door. "Hey, Steve, I have the latest bri...

Character Study: The Ultimate Evil - Nationalist Socialist Workers Party

Image
The one inescapable analysis to the origins of Captain America and Wonder Woman is that they were both created at the same time for war propaganda. For every great good shining through in every righteous hero and heroine, there must also be the contrast of the worst evil humanity has ever witnessed. The Nationalist Socialist Workers Party, aka Nazis, earned their repudiation because of their extreme prejudice, as well as global domination. Today, Nazis are chronicled on the history channel and portrayed as the ultimate villains in fiction films and literature. But as time changed and society still needed heroes, Captain America and Wonder Woman adapted to fight evil in all it's forms. Here, I'd like to take a look at what they were fighting before the concept of super-villains became the norm. Captain America as seen on the cover of his own book is punching Adolf Hitler the leader of the Nazi regime. But I think it stood for more than just that. It was a high concept of liter...

The Captain's Christmas

Steve stood before the adorned Christmas tree in the studio hallway where many of the other agents walked by. Many moments were like this for Steve since returning to active duty. The memories of long ago were creeping back up on him and the holiday down-time were making it even harder to block out. Many of Steve's agents and teammates would often see him gazing off stoically, but it had become so commonplace that they didn't bother disrupt the process. Every so often, Steve would see something or hear a phrase and it would remind him of someone from his past. That unusual ache in his heart would be something that only he would uniquely have to bear.Steve Rodgers would look over his shoulder at the bustling agents in the building being totally oblivious to the corner where the Christmas tree stood. It was a modest tree for such a public display. Instead of the red ribbons, it was given a red, white, and blue theme. The tinsel was a red-white-blue paper streamer an...

Victorian Era Alternate Costume Cosplay

Credit: Sacha Goldberger Credit: Sacha Goldberger Veteran photographer Sacha Goldberger has revealed his latest project that features many iconic superheroes redesigned for the 1600's (17th century). I am glad to see both the Captain and Princess are both represented despite both created in the 1940's and world war 2 propaganda. What do you think of the costume redesigns? I like the way the costumes are of an authentic looking cloth. It looks like they went through some serious research to get the authentic feel. Wonder Woman is still more modest in her long flowing dress instead of a more mobile short-pants or short skirt. They still managed to use the patriotic red, white and blue colors.
