Megan Marie in a Wonder Woman mashup cosplay
This is a clever idea. Cosplayer Megan Marie took a Wonder Woman Valkyrie cosplay and mixed it up with a Warrior cosplay. The result? A fierce Wonder Woman that manages to remind me of Skyrim! It very much looks like she’s in a running skirmish through the wild woods of the north. The photographer is […]
