Fun And Flirty Femme Joker

joker1I haven’t seem too much for cosplay here, but when I saw Callesto Fox’s femme fatale Joker, I thought she deserved a place among the geeks.

“This Femme Joker cosplay isn’t serious at all. It features cosplayer Callesto all dolled up in a mini-skirted version of Joker’s outfit based on his look in Arkham Asylum. The spats are a nod to one of Callesto’s other favorite Batman villains, Max Shreck.”

I mean, come on…look how pretty and flirty she is as The Joker! She might as well be an Easter egg, for as springy as she looks. Personally, I’d like to see a male version of Harley Quinn with her.

Callesto has a mostly private Facebook page, but you can check her out on Deviant Art. She’s also an awesome  Merida from “Brave.”

It’s Easter!! And what better way to celebrate than an Easter egg hunt with Pokémon eggs?! Gotta find ’em all!

Yaltro on Flickr made this fantastic selection of Pokémon Easter eggs, with food dye, sharpies and white out. The first lot were made in 2011 and the second lot in 2012… I hope there’s a third lot on the way this year!

Why not give it a go yourself this Easter? My favourites from this lot are Psyduck and Snorlax! Do you have any other ideas for geeky Easter Eggs?

This Friday round-up I’d like to focus on kyaraben, short for character bento. Let’s see what Wikipedia can tell us about it…
