Your cat doesn’t have a helmet? Why not? deviantART user Diarment made one for his cat Hugo. It’s reminiscent of Princess Leia’s slave girl costume, if Leia had been a cat.

deviantART user Pe-u offers this take on Sandro Botticelli’s The Birth of Venus. One commenter speculates that the matron at the right is Captain Marvel, but I’m inclined to think that it’s supposed to be Superman.
