Bearded, Older Cyclops Cosplay

31 days to go before Dragon Con, and I’m searching high and low for beard-friendly cosplays.

It’s that time of the year where I start pulling together cosplay ideas for Dragon Con. It’s hard to find bearded Marvel characters. I know, I should let the cosplay dictate the style. I just really don’t want to shave this spectacular beard I’ve been working on for a few years now.

I loved the recent “Age of Revelation” storyline in the X books. When I read it, I thought then, “Oh, I could do bearded, older Cyclops.” The costume is pretty straight forward too, which would be helpful since I’ve only got a month left before the con.

The look of this version of Cyclops seems like a fun character to play around with.

It seems settled then. "Age of Revelation" Cyclops it is! Now to get with putting together the costume.
