The Comedian from Watchmen
Eddie Blake is not what you would call a nice man. He’s done his fair share of hero work as The Comedian and the press loves his patriotic public persona. But behind closed doors he’s not what most people would call a hero. Jeffrey Dean Morgan manages to bring a certain charm to the character in Zack Snyder’s 2009 adaptation. But it’s up to the audience how long that charm holds out.
Blake is a military man and a good portion of his costume is inspired by the military. Black combat boots, black tactical pants, and his thigh holster with a (costume) pistol all stem from his interest in the military. His chest piece is pretty easy to recreate with a paintball vest and leather belts can be repurposed as the straps over his shoulders. His belt buckle can also be recreated using black foam painted with the same silver spray paint you’ll need to modify pre-made shoulder protectors so they have the red, blue, and silver colors Blake wears.
Add a mustache, mask, and smiley button as your finishing touches and you’re good to go. Just don’t forget the cosmetics glue to keep your mask in place!
Batman (2016)
In Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice, the iteration of Batman (Ben Affleck), aka Batfleck, is an older, more war weary superhero. When he must face off against the powerful Superman, he spends his millions to upgrade his batsuit to an armored version with kryptonite tipped weapons.
Blondie
In Sucker Punch, Blondie (Vanessa Hudgens) is ironically dark haired, as she’s of Native American descent. She is one of five dancers who schemes to escape the clutches of a mobster, using a tomahawk as her weapon of choice.
Rocket
In Sucker Punch, Rocket (Jena Malone) is one of five dancers who schemes to escape the clutches of a mobster. She has an inseparable bond with her sister Sweet Pea and is the first to befriend Babydoll at Lennox House.
Babydoll
In Sucker Punch, Babydoll (Emily Browning) is sent to the Lennox House for the Mentally Insane when her abusive stepfather blames her for her sister’s death. Scheduled to be lobotomized, she enters a fantasy world where she encounters the rest of the Sucker Punch crew.
Queen Gorgo
In 300, Lena Headey makes an appearance as Queen Gorgo of the Spartans. I guess that was good practice for becoming queen of Westeros in Game of Thrones.
