"Batman" & "Alien"
Glasgow Comic Art Convention, 1993
These two were taking part in the costume parade at
the Glasgow convention; the chap in the Alien costume had been
carrying it around in a big carrier bag all weekend. It was a
modified set of motorbike leathers, and very convincing, even
close up.
The lad dressed as Batman was using a balaclava as
a mask; he had to keep tweaking the corners to make them come
to points. When someone from the audience shouted out "what
about your ears?," he replied, "yes, I'm having them
syringed on Saturday."
