I need all my cosplayers out there to show up and bring it all on for this Halloween! 

Cosplayers have my utmost respect. What they do is a whole different kind of art. It doesn't take just imagination, but also a lot of skill. Most costumes you see at Comic-Con or other events are really well thought out and planned with at least a few months of preparation. It's not just choosing a character and then sewing a little dress that kind of looks like what they wear. Nope, it's a whole lot more than that. Many costumes involve complex makeup, wigs, props, and the outfit itself takes time, money, and effort. Most cosplays have so many details that if you pass by them too quickly, you might miss them. They are not the kind of costumes you can buy anywhere; they are the kind you need to know how to draw a specific sewing pattern, have a lot of skill to put it together, and adjust it to the body so it almost looks painted on you. 

Seeing any cosplay is a sight to behold, but I'm personally biased to like Marvel and Star Wars cosplays, and yes, also anything Disney-related. With Disney, it might be a little difficult because you're mostly dealing with 2-dimensional characters, so bringing them to real life takes a whole lot of adjustments. With Star Wars and Marvel (or any superhero cosplay, for that matter), the issue is different. Many of the original suits are supposed to be high-technology, modernized armor, or combat gear. How do you replicate that with fabric, plastic, cardboard, and foam rubber? Well, that's where the skill and experience come in to do what they do best: transform random materials into a movie-worthy costume! 

Even if most of us mere mortals don't have the time, skill, or resources to pull it off, we can still be inspired by these awesome people! Even more now that Halloween is so close and we seriously need to up our game and find a costume that makes us shine. Here you have 22 of the best Marvel recreations out there to start diving into the cosplay world and preparing for your next costume party!
