I love this Plastic Man costume, seen at the recent Fan Expo 2010 in Toronto. So very cool!
When will Hollywood make a Plastic Man movie? I still have hopes for Stephen Colbert to play the role. But they better hurry, he’s not getting any younger…

Here’s fun fan film called Superman vs Bizarro. I think it’s rather well made, all things considering. Sure, the costumes are rather average, but they do the job.
You can tell these guys really love Superman! It’s nice to see Bizarro get some screen time, the poor guy is so misunderstood.
Take a look at this wonderful Mystique costume, made by model/cosplayer ikearstin. Very impressive, she totally nailed it.
I made almost everything! The boots I got from Lover’s Lane. I made the skull belt from Fright Catalog, cutting them in half and taping loops in the back to slide onto an already made belt. Gloves were from my Princess Peach halloween costume. The facial skull piece is from a “Rebel Toons Tinkerbell” jewelry set that I just removed the rings from and spirit gummed to my face. I used theatre make up for my face, and made a blue spandex body suit and white dress from spandex at Joann Fabrics.
Ikearstin has lots of great costume photos on her site, including her Wonder Woman, Scarlet Witch, and Ms. Marvel. Jean Grey and Elastigirl are coming soon. Definitely worth checking out! CLICK HERE.

LOL, the purpose of this blog is NOT to punish you… though sometimes it may appear that way!

The trailer for Thor has been released, and it looks really good! I’m impressed.
This is the footage they showed at Comic-Con. I’m pretty sure this is an unofficial release, so you better hurry and watch it before it gets taken down!
Robin at ForeverGeek.com has put together an amazing gallery of costumes — all painstakingly gathered from various “Twitpic, Yfrog, and other Twitter-related photo streams.”
Head on over to ForeverGeek.com to view the entire gallery. There are over 150 photos! Thanks for all of your hard work, Robin! That must have taken you quite a while.

A very exciting Comic-Con just wrapped up in San Diego last weekend, and now tons of awesome costume photos are hitting the web.
Collider.com has a gallery of 80 cosplay photos that are definitely worth checking out! I’ve posted a few below. Sigh, I love this time of year.

Along with the LA Times officially announcing that Marvel’s Thor and Captain America will be in 3D (surprise!), comes this new photo of Odin, Thor and Loki.
Their costumes look very… shiny, I guess. I spotted this over on ToplessRobot, and I like how he compares these costumes to The Chronicles of Riddick.
Odin and Loki look like… well, they look about as Norse as Ronald McDonald.
LOL, that’s funny! I sure this movie does well, or the highly anticipated Avengers movie will be in big trouble.

An Iron Man motorcycle suit? Impossible! And yet…
Universal Designs has done the impossible. The officially licensed IRON MAN Mark V Leather Motorcycle Suit is now a REALITY!
It’s basically a costume, right?
Make no mistake, this is not a costume. As a ‘replica’ of what IRON MAN ‘wears’ this motorcycle suit has been brought to life with real world function and use…all the while paying tribute to the IRON MAN suit as seen on the big screen in all it’s glory.
- CE APPROVED BODY ARMOR
- EXTREME FORM MOLDED LEATHER DETAILING
- PEARL RED & SILVER ALUMINUM METALLIC LEATHER
- LIGHT SENSITIVE REFLECTIVE ACCENTS
- HEAVY DUTY STRETCH SPANDEX INSERTS
- BREATHABLE MESH CORDURA INSERTS
- REMOVABLE INTERIOR VEST
- GRADE A COWHIDE LEATHER
Wow, these guys aren’t messing around!
If superhero motorcycle suits are your thing, you can purchase this for about $1000 from Universal Designs.

Today the Internet is buzzing about Wonder Woman’s new costume! She’s still fighting for your rights, just not in satin tights.
What do you think?
Her new costume was designed by DC Comics Co-Publisher Jim Lee. Many commentors seem to think this new costume will help pave the way for a Wonder Woman movie to finally get made. I guess this costume makes her more accessbile to mainstream viewers?
I like the new look, though I wish she still wore red boots or shoes of some kind.
Deadline just released this exclusive drawing by Don Kramer, as well:
Also, iFanboy has a nice picture of Wonder Woman’s costume through the years. Click on the photo to view full size:
This video is awesome. Not only does this guy dance in a Batman costume, but he named his video “Green Hornet Official Trailer” so people will watch it accidentally.
Ah, YouTube, don’t ever change.

Here’s the first trailer for the upcoming superhero movie, The Green Hornet. I know many of you don’t think Seth Rogen should play a superhero, but I actually think this looks pretty good.
I personally find nothing wrong with humor and camp if it’s done well. Let’s hope they found a proper balance between comedy and good ol’ fashioned superhero action.
Costume Craze, one of my sponsors, just contacted me about their Green Hornet costumes. These actually look pretty good.
Is anyone surprised that they have a sexy Green Hornet costume? LOL.
