IT’S OFFICIAL — We have a costume!!! Or at least part of a costume. Firestorm’s costume from The Flash was on display yesterday during the Television Critics Association Press Tour (picture credit to Eric Goldman, Executive Editor IGN TV). At first glance it looks sort of GQ, however, I’m not entirely convinced this is the exact […]

Firestorm Cosplay
As you can imagine, Firestorm is a very difficult costume to cosplay. Previously, we’ve featured Allen Hansard and Brad West (both from the Superhero Costuming Forum) in their excellent Firestorm cosplay efforts.
