Carbon Costume

Harold is a character in the first iteration of Cartoon Network’s Total Drama Island. He was a contestant for the Killer Bass, Screaming Gaffers, and Team Action.

Zardy might be hard to avoid in his maze, but out there on Halloween night, nobody is going to want to run from this cosplay. Or if they do, at least they’ll be running for the right reasons.

Zardy is a little inhuman, but copying his look is possible. A black witch’s hat and a pumpkin mask start things off on the right track, though you can opt for face paint if the mask will be too warm. A shoulder cowl, a pair of scissors – to cut off the hood and create the V at the bottom – , some fabric glue, and orange fabric paint creates the iconic top detailing. It’s a bit of a DIY project but it layers easily over a versatile black long-sleeve pullover sweatshirt. Finish off with a pair of jeans, some shoe covers in the style of brown boots, and a farming hoe. If you don’t want to carry an actual farming tool around, you can use a costume scythe instead.

Murray Abraham) is a Nebula Award-winning writer thrust into the world of game development in the Apple TV+ series Mythic Quest.  C.W. is a master of his craft and sets out to imbue each game release with a a richly detailed backstory, sometimes to the detriment of the production process, much to the chagrin of both Poppy Li and Ian Grimm.  C.W.’s wardrobe harkens back to the bygone era in which he still feels rooted, favoring turtlenecks, blazers, and scarves over his co-w0rkers’ much more casual attire.

Ethan Winters (Todd Soley/ Hidenobu Kiuchi/ Raphael Rossatto) isn’t used to giving up, least of all where Rosemary is concerned. And if that takes him into the heart of Lady Alcina Dimitrescu’s castle, well, that’s a risk he’ll have to take.

Ethan is a simple man who just wants to do right by his family. And maybe stop a few global threats in the process. His clothes are as utilitarian as his goals. They consist of a work jacket, a zip-up pullover, a t-shirt, jeans, and work boots. A brown leather belt holds a hip holster complete with a costume pistol.
