Okay, so Gotham City may refer to New York, but this is real. The online Halloween Costumes shop buycostumes.com surprised me with this pretty scary looking Dark Knight costume. Yes, it is too big for my head, an issue that the Dark Knight vinyl mask instructions suggests to rectify with tissue paper and a blow dryer. I forgot to mention that I don’t own a blow dryer. 🙂

Very cool, and it’s an officially licensed Batman accessory and costume.

Now all I need is this Halo 3 master chief supreme adult costume for next year’s Comic-Con! 😉

Blog network b5media had this weird but really-good smelling putty that they were giving out at Austin BarCamp. Thanks to friends in the industry, I got a container of this stuff (thanks, Geri Druckman!)
