Description

Once relegated to the racks of comic book shops and fan boy basements, thanks to a steady stream of blockbuster movies to hit the mainstream, super heroes are HOT! Whether you're a fan of DC comics or Marvel's "House of Ideas," or other comic book publishing houses like Dark Horse, there's a comic book costume to gift you with a secret identity to hide behind for a night out on the town, a visit to a comic convention, or to a costume party.

Currently in theatres and sure to be a hot item are costumes for iron man (both his classic comic look and a more modern, sleeker version as seen in the new movie) and the Incredible hulk. To stay ahead of the curve and snap up some costumes for forthcoming summer sequels, suit up as batman from "The Dark knight Returns" with a streamlined, basic black Caped Crusader costume or go for a more unexpected superhero look with a hellboy costume, sure to be popular with the upcoming release of "hellboy 2: The Golden Army."
