Nancy Wheeler (played by Natalia Dyer) is the older sister of Mike in Stranger Things.  At the beginning of the series, Nancy is best friends with Barb and is dating Steve.  However, as things progress, she begins a relationship with Jonathan Byers and the two of them investigate the Hawkins lab together.  Natalia is one of the most fashionable characters on Stranger Things and can be seen wearing many iconic ’80s outfits throughout every season.

Wyborn “Wybie” Lovat is a geeky, charmingly peculiar, awkward kid. He lives with his grandmother, who owns the Pink Palace Apartments. Wybie knows something unusual is going on at the apartment. His family holds the secret to the strange events at the building. Wybie helps solve his family mystery in Coraline.

Cisco Ramon (played by Carlos Valdes) is the sweetheart of Team Flash. He is the one who always holds out hope that things can get better. He also tends to be a little more silly than the rest of the team but don’t let that fool you. He is wildly intelligent and can be a ruthless fighter when called on. This is especially true when he has his meta-human powers and joins the team as the vigilante, Vibe.

Cisco’s day to day clothes tend to be very comfortable and casual. He likes wearing graphic t-shirts and isn’t shy about wearing the S.T.A.R. Labs logo. A button-up flannel and a basic canvas jacket are his go-to layers while study khakis and high tops make up the rest of his outfit.

As Vibe he prefers a more uniform look. He has a special jacket as well as leather pants, dark boots, and goggles with blue lenses. No matter what he’s wearing though he has shoulder-length brown hair that has a lot of natural curve and wave to it.

Henry Stickmin (voice by Marcus Bromander) is the hero(?) of the Henry Stickmin series. He starts out as a petty thief. And then, whether or not he likes he, he gets swept up into espionage, grand theft, and the wider criminal underworld.

As complicated as his life is, however, his costume is very simple! A black body suit and brown shoes make up his “clothes”. A white bald cap and face makeup give you the final touches of a “stick figure” look. You can add to his basic cosplay by wearing a black top hat with a gold patch, a blue top hat with a gold H on it, a red bow tie and name tag, or a bullet belt and machete. It just depends on the ending!

Red Skull (portrayed by Hugo Weaving in the MCU) was the first recipient of the serum that eventually turned Steve Rogers into Captain America. It – for better or worse – did not have the same effect on Johann Schmidt. Instead of great strength and agility he was reduced to a blood-red near-skeleton ever in search of power he cannot hope to control.

Cosplaying as the Red Skull takes a bit of work because getting the skeleton-like look is not easy. Start with a bald cap and some red SFX paint. Red gloves will cover your hands and a little bit of standard makeup can finish the look. Then add on a long black military-style coat, bloused pants, and black boots. Finally around out the costume with a Hydra belt buckle, a World War Two pistol, and a tesseract!

Nathan Apodaca aka Dogg Face had a TikTok video go viral, when he skateboarded carefree along a highway while vibing to Fleetwood Mac’s “Dreams” and sipping a big bottle of Ocean Spray Cran-Raspberry Juice. The unexpected skateboard / Fleetwood / Ocean Spray combo hit a chord, this pure moment racking up over 25 million views. Soon after, Mick Fleetwood himself paid tribute by recreating the TikTok, and Ocean Spray hooked Apodaca up with a new truck and a truck-bed full of cranberry juice.

In the webcomic 100 Days in Europe, arrogant and self-centered Hayden Park is a New York-based celebrity on a trip through Europe to find himself after a traumatic breakup. He barely manages to avoid the paparazzi, but he can’t seem to avoid humble artist and backpacker, Gia Sunoo. Will her humility and appreciation for the little things rub off on him, or will he continue to stay aloof from all things “ugly”?

Dracula is the main antagonist in Bram Stoker’s Dracula. Filmed in 1992, the movie features a star studded cast: Keanu Reeves as Jonathan Harker, Winona Ryder as Mina Harker, Anthony Hopkins as Professor Van Helsing, and Gary Oldman as Dracula himself. As the story always goes, Dracula is the enigmatic owner of a castle in Transylvania, who is really a vampire. He invites Jonathan to arrange his real estate acquisitions in London. Despite the mention of the author in the movie title, director and producer Francis Ford Coppola doesn’t stick exactly to the book. For instance, he gives backstory to Dracula, and makes Mina a reincarnation of his wife.

Joan Lambert (played by Veronica Cartwright) is the navigator aboard the USCSS Nostromo. Lambert suffered from hyperactivity and nervousness which is suspected to be caused by trauma she faced as trans woman. Her nervousness caused her to freeze up when faced with the Xenomorph while searching for coolant. In the end, she was too afraid to take the risk and save herself.

Alex Danvers (Chyler Leigh) is the loyal older sister of Kara Zor-El, also known as Supergirl. Alex could have easily felt stifled in the shadow of her superpowered sibling, but she’s embraced her unique accomplishments and really come into her own as a fellow superhero. In early episodes of Supergirl, Alex’s fitted black garb and holster belts evoked a Black Widow-esque vibe, but the character and costume have both evolved.
