halloween happened

[kaydeefalls]

Halloween! I haven't dressed up for Halloween in many years, but that was before I joined the Gay Geeks, so I foresee a lot more costume crap in the future. We marched in the NYC Halloween Parade as the Avengers, and it was awesome. Except we care more about geeky comic book characters than mainstream Avengers, so we only had one of the movie!team -- Captain America -- and the rest of us were somewhat more obscure. Ant Man (not so obscure), the Wasp, Scarlet Witch, Vision, Dr. Strange, Wonder Man, Jarvis, Hulkling, Wiccan, and Kate Bishop, and I'm probably forgetting some (and we did have some non-Avengers in the group -- an awesome Joker and genderbent Harley Quinn, for starters), but we got very good at coordinating photo poses along the parade route whenever one of us yelled "Assemble!" (and then, of course, "Disassemble!"). I know we were on TV at some point, posing.

I went as Kate Bishop (Young Avengers' Hawkeye), specifically from the cover of Hawkeye vol 9.

The comic and my costume, for contrast:

Young Avengers Assemble!

Hawkeye - Wiccan - Hulkling

It was wacky fun. There is no good photo of my quiver & arrows here, alas, which I spent like four hours crafting and look fucking awesome, but whatever.

And now, more meme.
