We do a family costume every year and make significant pieces of it ourselves. This year our boys wanted to be Deadpool and Venom, so mom and dad followed suit with marvel characters that are also considered 'anti-heroes,' and went as Black Widow and Ghost Rider. We made the Venom costume, Ghost Rider's mask, added metal spikes to his biker outfit, and made Black Widow's bullet bracelets and belt. Hope you like it!
