Dc Comics Costume Ideas

About DC Comics

The "DC" in DC Comics stands for "Detective Comics" -- originally the comic book title that launched the Caped Crusader, Batman. One of the major comic book publishing houses, DC evolved from producing detective comics to putting out titles with some of the biggest superheroes of all time. DC's "Big Three" -- Superman, Batman and Wonder Woman are only a fraction of the heroes in the DC Universe. The JLA (or Justice League) including the Flash, Green Lantern, Martian Manhunter and Hawkman among others are another popular title. A younger generation of superheroes called the Teen Titans includes Batman's protege Robin among their ranks.

Dressing up as DC Comics

Choose your favorite characters from the DC Universe to dress up as for your next caped costume party! Available in sizes to fit both adults and kids are a variety of costumes of some of DC's best-loved characters. A number of styles of Batman costumes are available ranging from the classic comic book version to the more recent Dark Knight look.

Or, swing towards the Vertigo imprint of DC's publishing with Watchmen costumes or ones based on V for Vendetta.

Dress up as your favorite villains like the Joker and a whole host of femme fatales from the DC Universe like Mistah J's main squeeze Harley Quinn or Poison Ivy and Catwoman!

Ladies have a number of options for heroines, too. While Wonder Woman is one of the most popular, there are also some great costumes based on Supergirl and Batgirl, too!
