Carbon Costume Men
Takeshi from Altered Carbon
Takeshi Lev Kovacs (original face played by Will Yun Lee) is a former member of the Colonial Tactical Assault Corps. Through a series of events, he becomes a fugitive and mercenary. His cortical stack is stored without a body to be used for missions. In season 2, Takeshi wakes up 30 years later in a new body (new face played by Anthony Mackie). Takeshi comes to work with a younger version of himself in Altered Carbon season 2.
Bull from Brawl Stars
In Brawl Stars, Bull is a 1950s-style tough guy biker type. He wields a shotgun like Shelly, which makes him great at ambushing enemy brawlers at close range. His super is the bulldozer, which allows him to bull charge and injure anyone in his path.
Jonah Simms from Superstore
On Superstore, Jonah (played by Ben Feldman) is the idealistic new addition to the Cloud 9 team. Often considered annoying, he is known for championing social causes and even using them as the basis for his unique Halloween costumes. Jonah typically wears comfortable clothing that helps him perform his job duties as Cloud 9 and is almost never without his blue uniform vest.
Dynamike from Brawl Stars
In Brawl Stars, Dynamike is an old-timey miner with a short fuse and explosive temper. As a brawler, Dynamike has low health and extremely high damage output, lobbing dynamite sticks and the barrel bomb strapped to his back to deal splash damage. There’s also Coach Dynamike that features him dressed comfortably in athleisure.
Detective Miles Hoffman from Stumptown
Detective Miles Hoffman (played by Michael Ealy) is an intense and dedicated detective at the Portland Police Department who is quickly pulled into both the personal and professional life of Dex Parios during a kidnapping case. On the TV show Stumptown, based on the comics, Detective Hoffman is one of the more fashion-forward characters, wearing business casual plain clothes as he tracks down the city’s criminals.
Jack Kline from Supernatural
On the CW’s Supernatural, Jack Kline (played by Alexander Calvert) is a nephilim born after his father, Lucifer, impregnates his human mother, Kelly Kline. Jack is new to the world, but possesses terrifying power, which can make it difficult for him to navigate his life as a hunter with Sam, Dean, and Castiel. For an extra detail, you may be able to get gold-colored contacts from your eye doctor to mimic Jack’s golden irises as a result of his status as the most powerful nephilim.
Josh Futterman from Future Man
In Hulu’s Future Man, Josh Futterman (played by Josh Hutcherson) is a janitor for Kronish Laboratories by day, but a die hard gamer by night. When he beats the seemingly unbeatable Biotic Wars game, he is met by soldiers from the future who believe he is the savior they and the rest of humanity have been waiting for.
Connor Murphy from Dear Evan Hansen
Connor Murphy is a character in the musical Dear Evan Hansen. Not much is known about his life. He suffers from anxiety and depression, and perhaps substance abuse, as it’s hinted that he took pills to kill himself. He’s a reserved loner who acts cold and cruel towards others — even his sister, Zoe. He is the catalyst for the plot, as his suicide sparks the confusion with Evan’s letters. Despite his death, Connor reappears in “Sincerely, Me” as a figment of Evan’s imagination, and a ghost when Evan doesn’t know how to rectify the situation. Mike Faist originated the role on Broadway.
Matt Hargreaves from Eddsworld
In Eddsworld, Matt Hargreaves is recognized by his ginger hair and square chin. Matt is obsessed with his looks, and wears either a black or purple hoodie, a green overcoat, blue jeans, and black shoes. Sometimes he wears a black tee with “I ♥ M@” written on it. He is the animated counterpart to creator Edd Gould’s real-life friend.
Mike Ehrmantraut from Breaking Bad
Mike Ehrmantraut (played by Jonathan Banks) is a rarity among modern crime dramas. He’s a bad guy with a code that he sticks to. Ehrmantraut might have been a crooked cop but he has his own idea of right and wrong. And he’s not afraid to kill or die for those ideas.
Cosplaying him is a pretty simple affair. Ehrmantraut was not one for flash since that would draw too much attention and his costume speaks to that. Sensible shoes, grey slacks, a button up, and a black windbreaker make up most of the outfit. Purple nitrile gloves will help keep the crime scene clean of prints while a bald cap completes the look!
