Carbon Costume Men
Mello from Death Note
The elder of L’s two successors, Mello (Nozomu Sasaki / David Hurwitz) is an antagonist in the Death Note series. While he is indeed older than Near, he is less intelligent than his counterpart, which is something he is exceedingly aware of. Mello can often be seen eating chocolate bars, and typically wears dark colors and leather.
Uncle Fester
Uncle Fester, also known as Fester Addams, is a member of the fictional Addams Family. He was played by Jackie Coogan in the original television series, by Christopher Lloyd in the two feature films. He’s also the player character in the infamous video game Fester’s Quest, reviewed by The Angry Video Game Nerd
Night King
In Game of Thrones, the Night King is the master and the first of the White Walkers, having existed since the age of the First Men. He appears in Bran Stark’s visions and faces off against Jon Snow, who cryptically warns the rest of Westeros that “Winter is coming”.
Underminer
In The Incredibles, The Underminer (John Ratzenberger) is a supervillain who has declared war on peace and happiness. He’s resemblance to a mole is uncanny, from the big chompers to the ability to dig tunnels underground using his big drill vehicle and robot hands.
Amos Hart
Amos Hart is the loyal but dimwitted husband of Roxie Hart in the musical, Chicago. Portrayed by John C. Reilly in the film adaptation, his major musical number, “Mr. Cellophane,” is modeled after vaudeville tramp-clowns, reflecting his put-upon place in the story line. Vaudeville clown suits are difficult to find in black, so to replicate his tattered look, distress an oversized suit or pants and jacket, tie a large, silk scarf into a bow, and use light clown makeup.
Jyushimatsu Matsuno
In Osomatsu-kun, Jyushimatsu is the fifth born son in the Matsuno family. He is very eccentric and energetic, and loves to play baseball. He loves all of his brothers, but likes spending time with Ichimatsu a lot.
Raptor from Fortnite
In Fortnite, Raptor is a Royal Air Force test pilot. As you can see from his skin, is he ready to handle anything, equipped with everything from a headset for comms to a shovel to dig holes. OK, so that’s basically all he has.
Oddjob
Odd Job (Harold Sakata) is the manservant, henchman, golf caddy and chauffeur to the villain Auric Goldfinger in the 1964 James Bond film titled Goldfinger. He is a mute, physically strong man that smiles during a fight and uses his steel-tipped hat as a lethal weapon. A fan-favorite, he has appeared in numerous video games and novels. Like every good manservant, he dresses smartly in a black suit with his signature Sandringham hat.
Childish Gambino from This Is America
In the music video for “This is America”, Childish Gambino (Donald Glover) raps and dances as an expression of various themes including being black in America, gun violence, and police brutality. His gold chains are a nod to slavery, his movements to caricatures of Jim Crow, and the yellow shoes, who knows. Sew black buttons on the fly to get the pants matching as close as possible.
Vinsmoke Sanji from One Piece
Vinsmoke Sanji is the fifth member, and cook, of the Straw Hat Pirates in One Piece. He’s commonly referred to by his nickname, “Black Leg.” He has a rather large bounty placed on him by his father, but it’s only good if he is captured and returned alive.
His outfit changes much more often than the rest of the crew depending on the episode being before or after the time skip. You can generally see him in a double breasted black suit with buttoned shirts and ties of varying colours.
