Meet the Judges for the 2025 Forest City Comicon Cosplay Contest!
We’re beyond excited to introduce this year’s amazing panel of cosplay judges — a team full of creativity, passion, and heart!
Lindy Creswick - Lindy Cosplay Supplies Team
Lindy brings over 50 years of experience in designing mascots, creating costumes, performing as a professional clown and voice actor, and producing variety shows. She’s also the author of the “WOR-KIT” 3-in-1 book series — all about sharing her love of the craft and inspiring others.
Her son Geoff joined her in 2014, bringing his own flair and love of horror to the cosplay scene — appearing as Deadpool, Winter Soldier, Michael, and the Terrorizer, among others. Together, they continue to support the cosplay community as contest sponsors and hosts of the always-popular Cosplay Repair Station at every con they attend!
Geoff MacDonald - Messiah Complex Cosplay
Based in London, Ontario, Geoff has been cosplaying since 2016 and proudly represents the spirit of the community. A father of 3 and grandfather of 2, Geoff’s mission in cosplay has evolved from chasing likes to creating unforgettable moments. Whether he’s joking around as Omni-Man, making people squirm as Negan, or bringing smiles to kids as Spider-Man, Geoff’s goal is simple: to make every interaction memorable.
Mia Vaasjo
A professionally trained seamstress and dedicated Cosplay For A Cure volunteer, Mia brings 16 years of cosplay experience and craftsmanship to the judging panel. She’s also a past Master’s Category winner in the Forest City Comicon cosplay contest — and now she’s back to help crown this year’s champions!
Join us in giving a huge welcome to our 2025 Cosplay Contest Judges — and don’t miss their expert insights and passion on display at Forest City Comicon, happening Sunday, November 2nd at the Best Western Lamplighter Inn & Conference Centre!
