*World Record Details: To participate, DC Comics fans must dress from head-to-toe as an instantly recognized Super Hero that has been featured in a DC Comics published book, television program or film. Both homemade costumes as well as official costumes from licensees and official event retail partners will be considered as long as they are a full representation of the Super Hero and are as close to the original DC Comics Super Hero’s costume as possible. The world record will be set once fans gather in the assigned area at each local event and stay there for a full five minutes to be counted towards the record.
