Native American fams of comics, videogames and movies are bringing their cultural background into their costume designs.
Cosplay — a Japanese portmanteau of the words costume and play — is a style of performance art where people create outfits that pay homage to their favorite characters from comic books, television shows and movies.
Inspired by friends in high school to start cosplaying, Hueston made their first outfit with their mom — the character Boma from the Japanese anime series “Heat Guy J.” The pair went to a thrift store, purchased some items that sort of resembled the Boma’s clothing, then got to work cutting and sewing them in a way to fit the character.
“There’s a lot of people who are like, ‘People who cosplay should be true to the ethnic identity of their characters,’ ” Hueston said. Some Indigenous Comic-Con attendees, like Grace Benally of Phoenix, Az., see incorporating their culture into cosplay as an extension of their Native storytelling tradition.
