Stan Marsh
Arguably the most “normal” of the main South Park four, Stan Marsh has often served as the voice of logical reason throughout the show’s many seasons. The town of South Park’s well-being is constantly being terrorized by one threat or another, and when the town’s adults are too oblivious (or drunk) to do anything about it, Stan and his group of friends are left to reluctantly save the day. For Stan’s pants and shoes, any blue pants and black shoes will do the trick.
Heather Miller in Texas Chainsaw 3D
In Texas Chainsaw 3D, Heather Miller (Alexandra Daddario) is main protagonist, traveling with her boyfriend to collect an inheritance in Texas, where things will not end well. Alter the shirt so it goes off-shoulder and bares your midriff, and don’t forget the 90s style low-rise boot cut jeans!

Greg Sestero is an American actor, model, producer, and author. He is best known for his role as Mark in the 2003 cult film The Room directed by Tommy Wiseau and for his award-winning 2013 memoir The Disaster Artist about his life and experience making The Room.

Ben Hanscom
In Stephen King’s It, Ben Hanscom (Jeremy Ray Taylor) is a member of the Losers Club due to being overweight and bullied at school. He counts among his friends Richie Tozier, Beverly Marsh, and Eddie Kaspbrak.
Vulture
In Spider-Man: Homecoming, Vulture (Michael Keaton) is the nickname of Adrian Toomes, the owner of a salvage company turned supervillain after the government and Iron Man put him out of business. Vulture clashes against Spider-Man, sometimes even while the latter is wearing his homemade costume.
Comic Book Guy
The Simpsons’ Comic Book Guy is notoriously pedantic, annoying, and above all else, lonely. You may want to trim the wig a little bit to really capture his receding hairline. Also: grabbing a slushie from your local 7-Eleven on the way to your event would definitely help breathe authenticity into this cosplay.
Tetsuo from Akira
Akira is a timeless and critically-acclaimed anime from 1988 in which a biker gang in cyberpunk Neo-Tokyo clashes with a secret government telekinesis program. One of the bikers, Tetsuo, is granted unstoppable telekinetic abilities after accidentally colliding with one of the program’s ESPers. Finally powerful for the first time in his life, Tetsuo begins to lose his grip on reality as he abuses his newfound powers and they begin to grow out of his control.
Eddie Kaspbrak
In Stephen King’s It, Eddie Kaspbrak (Jack Dylan Grazer) is a sickly hypochondriac boy, though his broken arm is quite real. He might get that from his domineering mother, who is constantly worrying about his health. He only truly feels well when he’s with this friends in the Losers Club, including the likes of Richie Tozier, and Bev Marsh.
Nebula
In Guardians of the Galaxy, Nebula (Karen Gillan) is adopted by Thanos and raised as a sibling of Gamora. Sure she’s sadistic and evil, but at the same time it’s clear she’s jealous and hurt by the success of her older sister. For this costume, apply the metallic silver paint to face and left arm.
Drax the Destroyer
In Guardians of the Galaxy, Drax the Destroyer (Dave Bautista) is a powerful alien whose family was slaughtered by Ronan and Thanos. He joins Peter Quill and vows revenge on them along with Gamora. For the costume, use the gray body paint to touch up parts that aren’t covered by the costume, such as your neck and hands.
