Winter is coming, and so are spoilers, so consider yourself warned if you’re not caught up with Game of Thrones. When we last saw our players, Cersei had knocked several opponents out of contention, Daenerys was racing across the Narrow Sea, and Jon Snow narrowly avoided a veritable army of dangers. But who will take the Iron Cup? You’ll have to play Game of Karts to see!

The 25th anniversary of A League of their Own is coming up and we wanted to do something to celebrate. It’s a funny and positive story, after all, plus we’re suckers for a good sports movie. So we got this idea to combine A League of Their Own with the DC Comics team Justice League, because we’re also a fan of mashups and puns. (But don’t you dare call them mashupuns, because that’s going too far.) Anyway, if you combine those two you get A Justice League of Their Own, which is pretty obvious if you’ve already read the title of this series of original poster art. This time, though, it won’t be the Justice League versus the Legion of Doom like in that episode of Batman: The Brave and the Bold. Instead, they’ll be facing off against the Parademons and their ringer, Steppenwolf. Of course, the Justice League of Their Own has to win, because there’s no crying in baseball. Hey, enough of the jokes, let’s get in to the posters!

Thank you for making our May 2017 People’s Choice Cosplay Contest such a success! We were figuratively deluged in comments and emails for a couple of weeks there. They were pouring in, well, like votes do. (We’re sorry, but votes don’t make great similes.) Anyways, we fed the votes into our Counterator 2000 Machine and–PRESTO!–out popped a name.

There were so many fantastic entries in our April 2017 Cosplay Contest that it was difficult picking only three winners! So we decided to run a second contest with our top 20 featured cosplays and leave the voting up to the fans. This time we’re giving $1,000 in store credit to HalloweenCostumes.com or Fun.com to the winner. That’s right, it’s a People’s Choice Cosplay Contest, and you get to help decide who wins it all!
If the Mos Eisley Spaceport is a “wretched hive of scum and villainy”, then surely Chalmun’s Cantina is the center of that hive. Popularly known as the “Mos Eisley Cantina”, Chalmun’s is the dim bar where Luke Skywalker and Obi-Wan Kenobi first meet Han Solo and Chewbacca in Star Wars: Episode IV A New Hope. But in addition to freighter pilots and smugglers like Han Solo, the cantina is home to bounty hunters and imperial spies and men with “the death sentence on twelve systems”. No droids, though, because the bartender Wuher likes to keep out the riff-raff.

The ballots are in, the votes have been tallied, the numbers have been tabulated, the sums have been checked, and all kinds of other voting things happened. After much deliberation, we have selected the winners of our HalloweenCostumes.com April 2017 Cosplay Contest. Remember that the prizes were $750 (First Place), $400 (Second Place), and $200 (Third Place) in store credit to HalloweenCostumes.com or Fun.com for putting together a truly awesome cosplay.
