I am going to Comic Con NYC in October, and I am looking for some good costume ideas.

I kind of love my beard, and dont want to shave it off. My first thought is the Green Arrow, kind of CW Arrow style. But I am going for three days, and I kind of want to dress up three different ways! Anyone know of some other fun ideas for bearded guys?

Also, if any of you have some cool costumes pics from your adventures, please share.

    Leonidas!!! DOOO EEEEEIT!

    Otherwise I cannot think of many others right on the spot lol, but there are probably lots of good characters that have beards.

    I don't have pics from when I went to the one in Edmonton but I did the Songstress Costume of Yuna complete with my real hair colored and cut like hers hahaha. It was pretty good but not awesome for sure.

    You beat me to it! All I needed to hear was "beard" and of course King Leonidas is the answer.

    If you're into Skyrim, you could always do a bearded Dovahkiin. Aside from King Leonidas, when I think beard, I think Nord.

    Is it sad that I pronounce Dovahkiin just the same as the game every time I see it... or think of it lol. That's a pretty good idea! Doing a skyrim costume can be as much or as little work as you want really so it's really good option.

    You could be Prince Vultan who was King of the flying people in Flash Gordon, you'd have to shout a lot though :)

    Plenty of Game of Thrones characters would let you keep the beard.

    Dr Strange
    Aquaman
    Mr Sinister
    Thor
    Odin
    Hercules
    Wolverine


    You can always take a non-bearded character and just make him more epic as we all understand how beards just make everything better.

    Good point!

    In that case: Rogue.

    I totally forgot about Salvadore and just thought about him before seeing that post! Borderlandsssss!

    If you really wanted to be fun, be CL4P-TP. I would be love to see Clap Tap done hahaha, and if you were in my city while doing it I would 100% high five you and dress up as Maya.

    I killed it as a somewhat sexualized version of the Hamburgler at a supervillian convention last year. He, however, is beardless.
