I made a costume of my main character once. Since I specifically designed that character to look like me because I can't cosplay without ditching my glasses and changing my hair, the end result looked like me with poorly tailored gray cat-ears. And since I have three readers, nobody 'got' it.

Okay...I'll be the first to own up to being old enough to remember her...

what do you mean Old? it was only 20 years ago that she was on the Air.

My sister and I watched Rainbow Brite when we were young . . . so young, that I remember her through our childhood toys and storybooks, not the actual show.

I seem to remember watching the Rainbow Brite movie on TV about ten years ago and feeling nostalgic, like I was rediscovering my childhood.

Taken from the wonderful drawing done for me by my friend Turbo of Tomturbo17.com and based on the conversation that had inspired it, I will be Fat Batman Eating a Shark.

My modivation for this? So that I can have a conversation something like:

Silly Person:
"Hey! You're fat! You can't be Batman, who is all svelt and athletic! For SHAME."

Me (as Fat Batman):
"I am not Batman, silly. I am Fat Batman Eating a Shark, who is supremely better! He is FAT, and he's EATING a SHARK. Would skinny athletic Batman eat a shark? No, sir, I daresay he would not. Plus, Fat Batman Eating a Shark was drawn by Turbo, who, as we are all well aware, OWNZ. Who draws muscle-head exercise addict Batman these days? YOU DON'T KNOW!! That's because DC changes artists as often as I change my Fat Batman sweatpants! Every other WEEK!!"

So, now don't you regret ever asking?

Better than Batman? Pfft. The real Batman would just use his "Fat Batman Eating A Shark" repellant, and you would be forced to retreat, post haste.

I thought about making a life-size picture of my face and wearing it as a mask.

My junior year in high school, I felt the overwhelming last-minute urge to dress up, so I went to school in a towel, slippers, and a shower cap. And a T-shirt, so I'd pass the dress code. I got some unusual looks.

Best part will be it will in all actuality just be his standard can of shark repellant, but hw will use his Bat Magic Marker to quickly scribble "Fat Batman eating a" in from of "Shark Repellant" on the can.. and BINGO!!

Said can will then go back into his utulity belt pouch the likes of which only the TARDIS itself could compete with for its extreeme use of internal space.

Damn that Bat and his toys! And all I'll have on my utility belt is various condiments that go well with shark!

However, that will not stop me. I will find a way to use my inhuman abilities to eat a shark in order to best spandex fetishist buns of steel Batman. Mark my words!

wow! that is so crazy it Just Might Work! One In A million Chance, but as they seem to happen 9 out of 10 times.. my money is on the shark eater!

Batman.. your spandex wrapped abs of steel have met their match!

Adam West never had abs...

I have a question.
Is that just a coincidence that the only episode of the old Batman I saw featured the shark repellent, or were they really using it that often?

I was Xena a few years back.. Might try that one again this year, it's fun

I don't remember them ever using it in an actual episode. As far as I know, it was only for the scene in Batman: The Movie.

Which also had Batman holding a bomb over his head and running all around a boardwalk, trying to find a place to safely throw it, and not being able to throw it over into the water becaue there were baby ducks swimming around down there. Funny stuff.

I own it on DVD.

I was Quail Man last year. I ended up at a party talking to some dude who was wearing a plaster clam that had hair glued all over it. College is fun.

As a woman!

I've done it! hell you can see a picture of me in it on the artist bio page for my webcomic! However... lipstick sucks. And if you wear a skirt, you'll suddenly feel like... uhm... Easy Breezy?

Geez! We've been waiting a long time to post in this sucker because we didn't know what we were going to be doing (we know you've all been holding you're breath in anticipation

).

ANYWHO... Maria's gonna be a French maid and Michelle's gonna be... uh... something.... it's a pretty velvet/lace dress thing... (Doesn't matter what it is, it only cost $2!)
