When evil rears its ugly head, time is of the essence. Comic book characters can’t spend hours fiddling with all the little bits of their costume – they need to get it on as quickly as possible and rush headlong into battle. Crime waits for no one, so throw away all those troublesome costume accessories and slip straight into one of our sensationally stretchable second skin suits!

Second skin suits are all-in-one bodysuits that cover you up from head to toe. Our Second Skin department has got a bunch of colourful costumes for you to choose from, but our latest additions, second skin suits based on famous comic book characters, are probably the best yet. Become Batman, Superman, or The Flash in an instant – you could even put your normal clothes on over the second skin costume, and tear them off Clark Kent-style to reveal your true crimefighting colours!

Like all of our second skin outfits, all of our skintight comic book characters are made of breathable material that doesn’t prevent you from seeing, speaking, or even drinking through it while you’ve got your costume on! If you and your nerdy friends want to dress up as comic book characters this Halloween, our superhero second skin suits are the perfect way to do it. 

A superhero costume or two would certainly win our vote!

If you've been following the flow of American election action this autumn, you won't need us to tell you that the second big presidential debate took place last night. Obama and Romney went in all guns blazing, and while they both made some good points, we can't help but feel like there's one man who could easily clean up at any presidential debate if he'd only bother to run.

As you've probably guessed from that resplendent superhero costume up there. we're talking about Captain America. Dragging a fictional super-soldier into the presidential debate discussion might seem like a bit of a leap, but when you think about it, he's a shoe-in: a patriotic do-gooder who's muscular enough to get physically involved in protecting his country if he needs to. And most importanly (at least where the presidential debate is concerned), he's loaded with irresistible charisma!

Frankly, we think a superhero costume would do wonders for the images of Obama and Romney alike. Captain America is the obvious choice, but any superhero costume would do: Iron Man, Thor and Batman would all make pretty good leaders if you ask us. Obama is rumoured to be something of a comic book geek, so surely he sees that every presidential debate, and indeed election, would be his for the taking if he donned a superhero costume and embraced that Captain America spirit?

Need a Halloween costume now? Why not take one of our Marvel costumes for a spin?

You'll not have failed to notice that Halloween is only a couple of weeks away, which means you're running out of time to sort out your cool Halloween costume. If you're still struggling to find one at this stage of the game, you might well need a hero to come and help out. Fortunately, 'Hero' is Gadget Inspector's middle name!

We've recently added a bunch of magnificent Marvel Costumes to our range, which is great news for any comic book nerds who want to imitate their favourite heroes. Iron Man is here, as are his avenging allies Captain America and Thor, so all you have to do is pick your favourite! Of course, no set of Marvel costumes would be complete without everyone's favourite red and blue webslinger, so we made sure we included a Spider-Man costume too. Our Marvel costumes won't actually give you the powers of the superhero you're dressed as - you'll have to find a radioactive spider/experimental super serum/thunder-controlling hammer of the gods on your own -but you'll certainly look the part.

With The Avengers still fresh in the memory of moviegoers everywhere, Marvel costumes are set to be the big hit of this Halloween, so don't miss out - check out Gadget Hero Inspector's radical range of Marvel costumes now.

Jedi stuff for masters and padawans alike!

Star Wars is still one of our favourite film franchises here at Gadget Inspector, which should go some way to explaining why we've got so many Star Wars gadgets on our website. Still, we'd like to think that Star Wars gadgets are exactly what the people want, so if you fancy getting your mitts on some cool Jedi stuff, you're in the right place!

Star Wars Off The Wall Alarm Clock

Start your day the Jedi way with this bouncy ball of timekeeping fun! If you've ever wanted to smash your alarm clock against the wall when it wakes you up in the morning, you'll love this particular clock - you turn off the alarm by throwing the ball against a wall. Fun, eh? Jedi stuff is the coolest stuff.

Jedi Robe

Once you've hauled yourself out of bed, it's time to get dressed for the day. Everyone knows that true Jedi knights wear proper hooded robes, and fortunately our range of Jedi stuff includes just such a thing. It's sure to make you look just like the Jedi masters you idolise, and it's nice and warm and snuggly, too.

Star Wars Lightsaber Bottle Opener

And when the day is done and you've finished going about your Jedi business, there's always time to kick back and relax with a cold one. You're probably aware that the Jedi code doesn't allow you to use your lightsaber for anything as frivolous as opening a beer, but fortunately our pile of Jedi stuff has thrown up this lightsaber bottle opener that works just as well.

That's just the tip of the Jedi stuff iceberg - we've got loads of other great gadgets kicking around the website, so check out our Star Wars range now and may the force be with you!
