Captain America -- Back from the Dead!

The superhero favorite Captain America will be "brought back to life" in a new line of comic books by Marvel Comics. The series of the comic classic returns after the fictional character's tragic assassination back in 2007.

Although details of the Captain America's "rebirth" have been tightly under wraps by Marvel, the series is bound to earn success with fans that have anxiously awaited the superhero's return. The five part series entitled "Captain America Reborn" will be released early next month.

Along with the new series, more will be seen of this action star who is set to make the jump onto the big screen in the summer of 2011.

Here at Buycostumes.com, we could not be more excited for the patriotic hero's return! The new for 2009 Captain America costumes will be available soon which we expect to be hot items come this Halloween.

I Need A Hero!

Crazy times we're living in, eh? Troubles on Wall Street and plenty of other places around the world, and the politicians are fighting tooth and nail to get into the Presidential seat. Where are Superman, Batman, Robin, Wonder Woman, Spider-Man, Iron Man, The Hulk, Captain America, Wolverine, The Fantastic Four, Hawk Girl, Raven, and The Incredibles when you need them? At BuyCostumes.com, that's where! BuyCostumes.com has the most super selection of superhero costumes in the universe! From D.C. Comics to Marvel Comics, and even Pixar, you'll find the best of the best at BuyCostumes.com! Thank goodness, because right now, we need them more than ever! So why do we love these crazy guys and gals in bodysuits, tights and capes? There are all kinds of reasons. They are mysterious, eccentric, maybe a little crazy, but definitely brave, and perhaps most importantly, they are selfless in so many ways. Oh, and usually, they have super powers... this helps a lot! Typically, they also have a weakness, and this makes them human--and loveable. Batman, is my favorite, and maybe one of the big reasons is that he actually doesn't have any super powers at all--he's just a genius, an amazing athelete and warrior... and he's pretty handsome, to boot (and Christian Bale is not bad, either). Plus his arch enemy, The Joker is probably the creepiest and scariest super villain ever, so this keeps things exciting. AND he has awesome vehicles, weapons, and tools!But then there is Spider-Man... he shoots webs and swings from them through New York City and has spider sense, and battles guys like The Green Goblin and Doctor Octopus. And he's a little nerdy apart from being a superhero, which actually makes him cool.

Superheroes... there are so many great ones to choose from and everyone has their favorites for different reasons. Who's your favorite? Whoever it is, chances are, we have him or her here at BuyCostumes.com, along with accessories, party kits, and the whole nine yards.

Maybe the biggest reason for our love of superheros is that they represent hope. They keep on fighting the good fight even in the darkest hour, and in the end, they get the bad guys!
