Dynamic Cosplay Presents: Superior Lantern (Kenneth Hollant)

Ken: I was looking into a custom spiderman costume when I saw a deviantart picture for a blue lantern spiderman last year but I couldn’t find an actual pattern of the costume . By the time a pattern came out it blew up and I felt as though I would use uniqueness I was looking for . for the base I chose superior spiderman because … Well … He is superior haha ( and I think that is among spiderman’s best costumes).. Blackest night is probably my favorite major comic event and the blue lanterns are arguably the strongest lanterns (with the help of a green lantern) so I just wanted to combine the 2 and voila! A superior lantern is born.

Ken: Even though cosplay is life I am a HUGE otaku ( Anime nerd) and I spend countless hours building gundam model kits. Along with hanging out with friends and defending the galaxy in destiny.

 

Ken: Both my family and friends are super supportive. A bunch of My friends actually want to start cosplaying and join in on the fun.

 

Ken: Officially since nycc 2014 but i had some Halloween costumes before then.

Ken: I cosplay because I love how you can just be yourself and do what you love without the scrutiny of others . Cosplay is freedom and I love seeing people add their own personal twists on their costumes. Also I have met a bunch of really awesome people through cosplay.

Ken: This hands down is my favorite cosplay because I was able to add my own personal touch to everything and it came out epic (and my favorite color is blue).

 

Ken: From the drawing board to reality, about 3 months . Plus the usual blood sweat and tears (with a side of raging).

 DCN: Do you have any cosplays you will never do and why?

Ken: I would NEVER do something like a gundam or a mech suit because walking around,with those props all day can get pretty annoying and I’m lazy

Ken: Honestly I think it is our generation and everyone exploring their interests. Especially with the rise in superhero movies and shows there are a ton of new characters / costumes to choose from.

Ken: I am really leaning toward Captain Marvel / Shazam or Blue Beetle.
