If you’re a regular reader of Gamma Squad, then you know that there is an impressive number of extraordinary cosplayers out there. That said, I don’t I’ve seen a cosplayer that more closely resembles the character they’re dressed up as than Belle Chere. Whether she is dressed up as Ivy from “SoulCalibur”, She Hulk or Vampirella, Belle Chere’s appearance is shockingly dead on.

I chatted with Belle Chere via email about cosplaying, comic conventions and costume making. Keep reading to check out the interview and photos of some of her most amazing costumes.

CJ Tanedo’s self portraits look like something out of the film “The Cell,” showing the inner struggle of a man by literally showing that man fighting himself. By cleverly playing with the human body, stacking heads on top of themselves, turning the mind into a maze and placing a screaming mouth on a stomach, Tanedo creates images that are both unsettling to look at and thought provoking.

Check out some of our favorites of his pieces in the slideshow or check out his Deviant Art page for his complete profile.

Some rare and incredibly charming photos from the “Creature from the Black Lagoon” have surfaced and man, it looks like those monster makers were having a blast. It is so wonderful to see the creature from the Black Lagoon hanging out, mugging for the camera and laying some smooches on the ladies. Normally, us non Hollywood types only get to see him lurking and kidnapping screaming beauties. After checking out these images, you’ll be begging your mom to let you go swimming in swamps infested with lizard men.

What would an eighth season of “Star Trek: The Next Generation” have looked like? The hilarious TNG_S8 Twitter account imagines plots from a fictitious final season perfectly satirizing the loopy and occasionally predictable plot twists of TNG. What can you expect? Tasha Yars granddaughter suffers a horrible death in a time loop, Troi mainlines chocolate and Riker is really, really manly.

Check out these 140 character summaries of episodes, many of which seem like they could have actually gotten filmed despite their ridiculousness.

Who has two thumbs and loves a good Peter Pan story? This guy!

Syfy has gotten a lot of well deserved bad press this year, but you can’t say that they slouch on their mini-series. “Neverland” is a “Peter Pan”  prequel which aims to tell the tale of how Hook, Pan and company all end up in Neverland as bitter enemies. It’s got a host of top notch actors, Rhys Ifans, Charles Dance and best of all, Bob Hoskins is reprising his role as Smee!

The trailer will blow you away, check it out plus an additional commercial and images after the jump.

The mini-series will air on December 4th and 5th.

Finally a pokeball that gives you some idea of the pokemon inside! Get in the Halloween spirit with these amazing carved pumpkins by Deviant Art user Joh-Wee.

Some of these pumpkins, the Moltres and Blazing Rapidash in particular, are absolutely astonishing. The shading is far better than I would have thought possible. I Check out some of my favorites in the slideshow or view all of Joh-Wee’s pumpkins here.

Tell your new game systems to be afraid, the old ones are rising up and are hungry for fresh wires! This absolutely awesome zombie Gameboy by Kody Koala looks like it forced it way out of a closet full of junk.

The face is a printed piece of paper and is from Sparetype. The feet are from an Iron Man Mark I figure and the hands are from an Iron Monger Figure. I wanted to make it seem like it was bleeding, but since it is not human I used a metallic brown for blood instead. This stands about 6-7 inches.

You can purchase it here for $100.
