The Top 9 Superhero Fashion Tips

9> Replacing last year’s hand with this year’s trendy new hook/harpoon combo will really turn heads!

8> It doesn’t really matter what you wear in your book, when they make your movie, you’ll be wearing black.

7> Repair or replace your costume after every major battle; the torn-up look went out with Chaka Khan!

6> Judicious use of color-coordinated ammo packs will spice up the blandest uniform.

5> Unless you’re Bullseye, having a big target on your chest is just asking for trouble.

4> Add a colorful plaid to your ensemble for autumn; it’ll give your costume a kicky panache *and* distract your enemies during combat!

3> Insignia belong on the chest, head or belt buckle. Putting your logo on your codpiece is just trouble waiting to happen.

2> A full head cowl means never having a bad hair day.

and the Number 1 Superhero Fashion Tip…

1> Heat vision and contact lenses do NOT mix!
