Hey there, SlickforceGirl fans. I just got this behind-the-scenes video back from our editor and couldn't wait to feature it on the blog. The video is from this year's Stan Lee's Comikaze and, as you can see, we had a total blast hanging out with all of you, and our girls made so many new friends. Looking forward to next year's convention and all the awesome adventures it will bring! Until then, enjoy this backstage-pass video featuring SlickforceGirls Brittany and Erika, as well as artist Corey Knaebel and writer Stephanie Jones.

As most of you probably know by now, Stan Lee's Comikaze was a couple weeks ago at the Los Angeles Convention Center and the turnout was huge! We were lucky enough to have a booth close to the center of the convention this year so that meant a lot of foot traffic. Erika and Brittany were there signing autographs and taking pictures with fans, as well as artist Corey Knaebel.

Needless to say, the whole weekend was a blast and we have the photos to prove it. You can check out our full Comikaze 2014 cosplay and behind-the-scenes photo gallery below. Leave a comment if you stopped by the booth and let us know what you thought of everything. We can't wait to see all of you again next year!

Melanie Iglesias is back, and this time we are raising money for Hope for the Warriors. Watch as Melanie tries to keep up with the outlandish signing requests for her "Marine Mel" posters while fighting for a good cause!

Hope for the Warriors is an amazing 4-star rated charity that aims to enhance the quality of life for post-9/11 service members, their families, and families of the fallen. We are proud to have made a donation from the Saglimbeni Store and the Melanie Iglesias Store.

Special thanks to all of YOU who ordered autographed posters and made our donation possible. We couldn't do it without you!

Naval Commander Brittany has always been a badass. During our live-action shoot, our good friend & model Brittany Dailey brought the perfect combination of fearless hero and sexy swag to the character. Lucky for us, artists Corey Knaebel and Ula Mos were able to capture that swag in cartoon form.

In this beautiful faux cover, Brit returns to base to recharge—and accept a little adoration from her fellow warriors.

BREAKING NEWS: Model Brittany Dailey will be joining us at our SlickforceGirl booth at Stan Lee's Comikaze Oct 31-Nov 2, signing this limited edition poster, along with artist Corey Knaebel. Be sure to come by and see us!

In case you missed it, here's a lookback at the making of Brittany's shoot below!

This week, the SlickforceGirl team sent care packages to deployed troops overseas. After reading requests from several active battalion leaders, we prepared packages that included much-needed items, such as protein bars, ramen noodles, warm socks and more. We also included Special Edition Airman Erika mini-posters for, well, motivation.

Our thanks to the real heroes who fight for freedom everywhere. We salute you!
