Carbon Costume Men
Lieutenant Everett Backstrom
In Backstrom, Lieutenant Everett Backstrom (Rainn Wilson) is a crotchety yet brilliant policeman who heads the Special Crimes Unit. Always armed with a cigar and coffee, he is self-destructive and offensive. While he is not everyone’s cup of tea, he is everyone’s first choice to solve crimes.
Richmond Valentine
In Kingsman: The Secret Service, Richmond Valentine (Samuel L. Jackson) is a billionaire who dabbles in eco-terrorism. His fashion palette suits his name, and he’s able to layer casual and chic like no other: a blazer over a dress shirt over a sweater over a polo.
Daredevil Black
In the Marvel comics and Netflix television series, Daredevil is the alter ego of Matt Murdock (Charlie Cox). He fights crime as a lawyer by day, and as a vigilante by night. As if that weren’t enough, The Man Without Fear — as he’s called — does this all while blind, relying on his other heightened senses.
Vic Hoskins
Vic Hoskins (Vincent D’Onofrio) is in charge of Jurassic World’s private security. Vic oversaw the clean up of escaped Pteranodons in 2001. Professional and well-known, Hoskins’ developments in security have gained him partnership with the UN Security Council, as his security methods could also be used in war time.
Colonel Sanders
Colonel Harland Sanders is the founder of Kentucky Fried Chicken, and we have much to thank him for that. As the face of KFC, he’s always seen in a white suit and western tie, even on the side of a bucket of chicken.
“Scarface” Tony Montana
In Scarface, Tony Montana (Al Pacino) is a Cuban refugee who arrives in Miami with nothing in his pockets. Through determination and a strong dose of violence, he rises to become a powerful drug kingpin. Don’t forget to accessorize with Tony’s “little friend”.
Doc Sportello
In Inherent Vice, based on the Thomas Pynchon novel, Larry “Doc” Sportello (Joaquin Phoenix) is a hippie private investigator. He takes assignments from questionable clientele in Los Angeles, getting himself caught up in all sorts of intrigue.
Quicksilver in Avengers
In Avengers: Age of Ultron, Quicksilver (Aaron Taylor-Johnson) is Pietro Maximoff, the fleet-footed twin brother of Scarlet Witch who can move at superhuman speeds. He’s not to be confused with the Evan Peters Quicksilver, who’s, like, totally different.
Natural Harmonia Gropius
In Pokemon Black and White, N (full name Natural Harmonia Gropius) is the leader of Team Plasma. He grew up among abused Pokemon, where he learned to communicate with them and grew to despise humans, who he blamed for their abuse.
