I wanna go to the Expo Comics Tampico this weekend. I don't have a lot of time because I'm very busy with homeworks and final exams; so I want a cheap, easy and quick costume for this three days, it would be my first cosplay :).

I have a black suit, and I was thinking about using it for a costume. But I don't know if there's a character of anime/manga/comics using a black suit.

My hair is black, wavy and not too long. I can get other accesories deppending of the character's clothes.

Please, tell me some options. It doesn't matter whether if I have to pretend being a man or a woman.

I would've suggested Doctor Who, but that may not be your thing....

If you had straight hair, I would've suggested either Tseng, or the Turks version of Vincent Valentine....

Do you have a red coat and hat? You could go as "Hellsing"'s Alucard...

With a black suit and fake afro, you could be a Habbo blocker.

An internet phenomenon. People at a comic con might recognize it, but I guess it's really more of an anime con thing.

Just looked up Wikipedia. Is it that chat thingie?

How's the search for a decent cosplay going, SamuraiSaxen?

I'm not usually one for enjoying cosplay, but there was an excellent video of YouTube of a guy cosplaying as Kefka from "Final Fantasy VI". He got the laugh right, and had a fairly appropriate, campy voice. The best moment is when he shouts at a guy cosplaying as Sephiroth "Mama's boy!".
