Cosplay Guest

Christina Dark

 

Christina Dark is a Dallas transplant, originally born and raised in El Paso, TX. She moved to Dallas in the fall of 2018 to pursue better acting opportunities and further her cosplay career. She recently finished her first major acting role in the feature Squealer. In the past 10 years, she has been an invited guest to numerous conventions in the USA and across the border. 

She discovered cosplay through a friend after high school, as a great outlet to express herself creatively and inspire others. Her first cosplay was Zatanna Zatara, although she is now more recognized for her interpretations of Blue Beetle and Catwoman. She loves to cosplay not only comic book characters, but also those from film and television. Her biggest strengths include foam work, as well as makeup and hair. 

She believes that all one needs to cosplay is a love and respect for the character, and that cosplay should be inclusive and fun for all. She is excited to be on the roster — this will be her first appearance for Soonercon.
