It's #NationalSuperheroDay and I have made at least 100 superhero costumes over the past 15 years + I could share any of them, but I've had the same favorite superhero since I was 4 years old. She used to lead the Avengers, you know. Captain Marvel herself, Monica Rambeau πŸ–€πŸ€ πŸ’«

@JayJustice I love the way your cape(?) is billowing out in the breeze, and your pose? Wow, heroic! Dynamic! 🀌🏻 🀩
@kagan thank you! That's always a fun component to describe. It's attached only from the waist alongside the underarms down the inner sleeve to the edge of the wrist, doesn't touch shoulders at all. IS it a cape?? πŸ˜‚ Whatever it is, it looks neat so they drew it and I sewed it. I love comics lol πŸ˜‚β€οΈ

@JayJustice Whatever it is, it *does* look neat!

And you're welcome.

@JayJustice Monica was always my favorite Captain Marvel! Also loved her as Photon, Spectrum, and Pulsar.

But she was THE Captain Marvel when I read the original "Secret Wars" off the shelf back in 1984. AFAIK, she is also the longest-running leader of the Avengers (continuous not contiguous).

Ever since, Monica Rambeau has held a special place in my Marvel-ous heart.

The costume is amazing!
@notroot agreed on all counts πŸ«±πŸΏβ€πŸ«²πŸ» thank you!! πŸ™πŸΏ
@JayJustice that is a gorgeous costume!

@JayJustice

Darn nice work!

I have a strange relationship to all the Captains Marvel, in that I love them all equally but differently. (Except for that robot that goes "Split!" and "Xam!".) Monica Rambeau is, to me, The Professional: she's not an alien or a pilot or a different alien or a kid with a magic word, she's the police officer who put all her professional know-how into superheroing. I don't know why more heroes don't have police training, but Monica makes good use of hers.

@JayJustice the real female Captain Marvel.
@JayJustice yes, to me that is captain marvel. Get out of here with calling her spectrum or photon.
Looks absolutely great.
@JayJustice Monica Rambeau rocks!!! Great cosplay!
@JayJustice Great costume! - I didn't know that the 28th was National Superhero Day - very awesome!
