Bewitched Raven

Guest Appearance:
Marble City Comicon
April 25-26th


BewitchedRaven work to make almost every aspect of each costume you’ll see her wear. Every design came from her own head -- and she welcomes constructive comments!

Based in Atlanta, she’s a total geek that’s been cosplaying since 2011.
BewitchedRaven is a huge advocate for the idea that everyone is a "friend", not a "fan", and she doesn’t tolerate bullying and mean people.

“I am one of those cosplayers who will never post a "wish list" of items for you to buy for me. I have too much respect for the effort that was put into making your money. If ever you want to do something nice for me, stop by and say hi or pick up a print in my store! I would prefer you save your money to come hang with me at a convention rather than blindly send gifts to a woman you have never met. If you do ever feel the urge to spend money, just check out my shop! I got some cool prints for sale there!”

BewitchedRaven mostly attend east coast conventions, but she accepts invites to be cosplay guest anywhere!

Ban Cosplay From Conventions? Come on.

There's a lot of rumble lately around this news saying that PAX won't tolerate booth babes and sexy cosplay. And that possibly other shows might adopt the same rules. PAX established that rule back in 2010.



Why so excessive? Simple common sense would be fine. Some booth babes are too sexy? Con organisers can let them know. They're human beings, they will understand, booth owner will adapt. Cosplayers too. Simple as that.

Why remove all the beautiful colors of a convention when only a handful are too bright?

Read the Reaxxion article here.
And some reactions to it here.
