When she's not pricing comics or cleaning out N64 cartridges, Kati can be found hunting for Jurassic Park dinos, or in her craft room covered in eva foam dust.

Lady J

Lady J
Lady J Nerdy Enterprises, LLC is owned by Lady J who is a Philadelphia based published Cosplayer. She believes cosplay is so important because it allows people to share experiences and express their creative/artistic sides. It also allows us to share our favorite heroes/villains and share the positive effect these stories of heroism can have on an individual. Lady J not only cosplays for those reasons but to spread Cospositivity: acceptance to all shapes, sizes, colors, genders, skill level etc. and to use it to help spread the word and fundraise for charities. This passion for charity work is why she became one of the founders and owner of the cosplay charity group known as the Philadelphia Avengers which is its own LLC. Lady J is also a member of the Philadelphia Power Rangers where she is known as Philly Yellow. This love for Power Rangers led her to help start the first all Power Ranger Convention in the Philadelphia Area, called Ranger Station (happening next Saturday July 16th!) where she is co-owner. Ranger Station started her love for event planning and Lady J has started her own Mutant & Proud event which is an X-Men themed Hellfire Club inspired event. Also under her Enterprise is Lady J Nerdy Shop, whose mission statement is to bring geeky goodness to everyone at affordable prices and other nerdy events and Lady J Vintage Wear, whose mission is to bring geeky goodness to retro fashion.

“Hi I am Ghostiee Muffinn, a published cosplayer of 8 years that enjoys hand crafting a variety of costumes. Most of my costumes are from video games, animes, or… memes.
