Coffee Break #23: “Scary Sexy”
Happy Halloween, heroites! It’s a Halloween-themed comic this week. I had lots of fun devising suitable costume ideas for Parker, Brody and Simon.
So have you seen some of these sexy Halloween costumes? Each year, they get more and more baffling. I was especially startled to see a “sexy Robin” costume and a “sexy Ninja Turtle” costume. So… leave it to Simon to concoct not only a sexy Bravado costume, but a sexy Dr. Malefactor costume, too.
I’m with Brody… some of these costumes conjure up disturbing flip-floppy fantasies.
For everyone in the New York area, just a reminder I’ll be a guest at the Albany Comic Con on Sunday, October 30th. I’ll be doing sketches, selling Hero Business Collections as well as various Art Cards and Prints.
So what’s the weirdest-sexy Halloween costume you guys have seen?
Hahahah. Very funny, Bill! Loved the sex Dr. Malefactor version!
You said junk.
Totally okay though to have erotic dreams about Bravado though ey, Brody? 😉
Heh. I think it’s a question of priorities….
It still ain’t stopping him from making the googly eyes at the sexy Malefactor and Bravado even as he makes his threats. ;D
In some past year (can’t remember which; might have been last year) I went to a Harry Potter themed Halloween party. There I saw “sexy” versions of pretty much every character in the series, including Professors Snape and Dumbledore.
😯
(I modified a cheap Walmart “wraith” costume and went as a Dementor.)
😉
Sexy Professor Snape? Bah, that’s been a fan girl fantasy for years. You wanna impress me, give me a sexy Mad-Eye Moody. I will also accept sexy Professor Umbridge.
Alright, I knew there was going to be a Halloween one this week, How was it, I thought this was going to be about “Overblown Costume Sales”?
I belive we can all see Simons future. And it has lots of kicks to his nads
Sexy Wookie costume. Or sexy Big Bird. I don’t know which was weirder :/
I really like your comic. This coffee break inspired me to comment since I dress like these girls more days than not. Perhaps someday you’d enjoy doing a more adult comic about me and my friends 🙂 Since I’m a dork at heart it seems appropriate that I have a comic 😉
Haha, you’ll have to share the pics at some point. Sounds like you could have been an extra in STILETTO.
I must admit the “Sexy Dr. Malefactor” joke was kinda lost on me, as my first (and second, and third) thought when I saw that costume was that it was supposed to be Ilia from Star Trek: The Motion Picture.
(Which happens to be the first time ever I didn’t get a loud boisterous laugh out of one of the HB comics, just so you know.)
Sorry this week didn’t click with you, Andy. It was just a riff on the ridiculous “sexy costume” trend.
OK, we’ve heard about sexy Harry Potter characters, sexy Wookies and sexy Big Birds… yeah, those are all pretty bizarre. I just find it strange when they take something inherently masculine and make a “sexy girl” costume out of it.
FWIW, I suspect that it has less to do with some hidden [homo]sexual attraction to male characters, and more to do with the inherent sexiness involved when sexy women are dressed in “men’s” clothes.
After all, how many men would argue that there’s not much sexier than an attractive woman wearing a man’s button down dress shirt – and nothing else?
😉
Oh man, I can’t believe no one’s mentioned how the female Dr. Malefactor looks like Ilia from Star Trek: The Motion Picture. Keep hearing “V’GER” in the back o’ my head.
And ya got the creative dude as a trekkie, too.
Heh, it occurred to me, but there was no room to have the character really comment on it.
Ow. I think I just broke something from laughing too hard. X_X
