I don’t know about you, but I’ve gotten through this busy week by replaying Guardians of the Galaxy in my head over and over again. The kind of joy that movie delivers lasts for days, but I am starting to run out of steam. I’m pretty sure that means I need to see Marvel’s latest film again. Before I head to theater, it’s time to pause and celebrate Cosplay Friday.

We’ve rounded up some gender swapping, some steampunking, and some mash-uping (it’s almost a word) costumes and looking at the below gallery just might inspire you to spend this weekend building your own props and outfits.
