For those who don't know, I was The Doctor from The Authority for Halloween last year. Can't trick-or-treat anymore (obviously) but it made for a weird story at parties as people lost interest as I explained who he was. lol....good times. 😉
Current front-runner in "super heroes I'd like to dress up as this year" is Thor. The chance to speak pseudo-Shakespearean English while wielding the Mighty Mjolnir seems too cool to me.
...more to come...
:dork:
P.S. I really just came back here to see jin in his costume again. droolio

You should go as Midnighter... then when anyone compliments you on your Batman costume you can mock them in a very "this-dumbass-knows-nothing-about-comics" sort of way
😄
Of course you run the risk of being recognised and outed as an outspoken homosexual..... but either way it makes a funny story to tell us afterwards
As for the reason I wont be doing that myself.....

see that's the thing.... i could go to a Halloween party with a perfect replica of The Doctor's costume.... and no one would know who i was (comics are not huge in Scotland)... hell, when ever i mention most mainstream characters to friends/family most people have no idea what the f**k i'm talking aboutwhen i heard they were making an Iron Fist movie i told a couple of people... blank stares
went to see a film a while ago with a mate... the FF trailer comes on..... he asks "who the f**k are they?"
my bro and sis (who both know of my comic collection..... and have been forced to learn slightly more than the normal person) don't know who Captain America is
my bro thinks Superman is the most powerful guy in comics ..... when we were doing that first amalgam tourney he kept saying "just take Superman... who can beat him?".... when i answered with a list of a ton of people he just turned and walked away

Thanks. The helmet and chest-piece were from a store-bought Thor costume, but I went searching for the wig myself and fashioned Mjolnir from a blue-green hammer-mess that we had lying around in our basement (I had to cut and sand the handle, and spray paint it silver and add the runes).

well its a decent result, the work you put in looks like it paid off...
i'd have gone as cyke, but due to the near impossibility of affording a visor (and even that one is bright bloody yellow), i was unable to...

Just buy some of those old-school 3-D Geordie Laforge plastic glasses and paint them

i had considered that, but i'm too obsessive to put up with something that wasnt the real deal... 😖
A friend of mine went as Cyke. I'll try to dig up a pic of him....but I don't know how he made the visor.

What the hell is on your arms? 😆
Fake muscles....part of the chest-piece. They stop midway through the arm though, so it looks kinda bad from certain angles.
