Synopsis

The BA babes do cosplay the right way!

Reviews

For those not in the know, cosplay is people dressing up as characters from comic books, video games, TV shows and movies. It is a rich, varied and occasionally controversial subculture. It is also ripe for adult entertainment exploitation. Honestly, it's a surprise there hasn’t been more of what this title is doing.

It makes sense that Burning Angel/Joanna Angel would take on cosplay and get it right. Having something like Death and Lucifer Morningstar from the Goth comic staple “Sandman” boning is practically next door, conceptually, to heavily inked girls having sex. If 50 percent of that last sentence made sense to you, odds are you’ll like this title.

Draven Star and Tommy Pistol tear into each other while cosplaying as the above-mentioned Death and the Devil. A line or two of Sandman-ish dialogue is delivered as fan service before the action starts. The two are hot together, although Tommy’s wings and wig don’t stay on for very long.

Larkin Love, rockin' an Elvira costume, hooks up with Ramon Nomar for Comic-Con tickets. Larkin has Elvira’s look down cold and the chest to sell it. Ramon does everything to Larkin that you’ve ever wanted to do to Elvira in this stand-out scene. To further win you over, there is a silly “Doctor Who” joke thrown in.

If that's not enough of Larkin for you, she does a girl/girl scene with Sheridan Love (no relation, we're sure) where both of them are Neko girls (anime cat-girls … just roll with it).

Annie Cruz and London Lanchester are cosplay contest winners (Sakura from “Naruto” and Tifa Lockhart from “Final Fantasy” respectively) who educate their landlord about the appeal of cosplay.

Finally, Rizzo Ford nails “Tank Girl” perfectly while Wolf Hudson, wearing mutant kangaroo make-up, nails her.

The two niches, inked/alt girl and cosplay, share a lot of the same fan base, but with enough variation that the title will have a broad appeal for both the initiated and the curious to both cultures. Comic Book Freaks and Cosplay Geeks never forgets that its first job is to get you off, but it’s also apparent that the cosplay aspect isn’t just here for novelty.
