My Costumes Vs. Yours

The Premise

This is a new version of an old thread that I'm retiring because the picture links are dead. You can find it here. Basically, I went unchallenged for six Halloweens. Let's see if you turkeys can do any better this year.

Also, here is the general Halloween thread where we can talk about costumes, post pics, and it doesn't have be strictly about our own costumes or in a vs. setting.

So...every comic character I've dressed up as, vs. any and every comic character you've dressed up as.

I'm posting this early because I want people to be inspired to dress up for Halloween. Or at least think about what they could dress up as.

The Rules

- For you to be eligible to compete, you must post pics of yourself in costume. This means anything sans pics isn't counted, and no posting pics from comics cons and such of others. Because, really, what would be the fun in that?

- "Comic character" is lenient for the purposes of this fight. If they have some kind of comic, we'll allow it.

- There will be two versions of the fight. One with no prep, one with a day of prep.

The Combatants

The Doctor (Authority - Jeroen, not Habib)

The Doctor (Doctor Who - 10th Doctor)

GL Alan Scott (Pre-FP - GL, not Sentinel)

Well this is embarrassing. I can't find my pics of me as Alan. So, for the time being, Alan is taken out of consideration for this thread. I'm leaving this here so that I can edit them in once they're found.

Classic Thor

The Fights

1) First fight w/o prep, neutral setting.
2) Second fight with one day of (relative) prep, neutral setting.
The Doctor (Who) has his TARDIS but does not start in it in the 1st scenario. He can choose where to start in the prep scenario. Sonic Screwdriver is considered standard equipment.

My team is beatable w/o prep, though still insanely powerful. With prep, I'm not joking when I say there's only a handful of characters in any universe that would beat me. The potential synergy between the two Doctors is staggering. Abstract-level power is a prerequisite for even having a shot at them.

you sure are a handsome bastard. your costumes are impressive. keep up the good work, Mark.

Nice

Your sarcasm is noted (and/or thanks). But on topic: You have any pics to share with us? Dressing up for Halloween is a blast.

Post pics? Since I've lost my GL pics, you're actually 2/3 of the way there with the Doctor and Superman.

That was Doctor Whunicorn, jerk!

I wasn't really sure how to categorize him. It was the 4th Doctor's costume, but I didn't want to muck this thread up with silly fictional characters. We have standards in these here vs. forums, after all!

Quick, someone dress up as Thanos with the Infinity Gauntlet and as Morgan Freeman from Bruce Almighty!

It would be a bit cheap to do Freeman, and might also not qualify based on my OP stips. But I'd totally be down with someone going as Thanos. Would be badass.

On a serious note though. Digi, I'm not into the Halloween thing, but nice thread.

It always struck me as odd what people find embarrassing or weird. My last boss told me I shouldn't tell people that I attend Renaissance Faires, because it could reflect poorly on me professionally. It was quite the wtf moment. I bring that up because it's not dissimilar to some peoples' reactions to costumes at Halloween. I never got it, but w/e.
