    Identify the CBG Costumes on the cover of Bongo FCBD 2012!

    Cover of Free Comic Book Day 2012 had CBG in 23 different costumes. Can you identify them?
    (I placed numbers on each character!)

    The third is Darth Maul actually...

    16 looks like maybe the guy from The Prisoner
    17 is Dr. Evil
    20 is Bluto, I assume, from Popeye? I dunno any Brunos so maybe I'm wrong?

    I think this forum has run out of ideas.

    18 is Pinhead from Hellraiser, I thought Zombies had that correct initially(by which I mean I thought he thought it was Pinhead too) but you're correct Mozy.

    9 is a die from dungeons and dragons
    11 is probably supposed to be jabba the hutt
    500 episodes, about 200 good ones.

    The episode "Whacking Day'' curiously aired the same day as Seinfeld's "The Contest'', which deals with a different kind of whacking.

    Number 16 is... CBG as a cast member of The Prisoner (1967-1968)?


    If you need anything else... just holla.

    It is "The Prisoner" I'm 100% positive now that I can see CBG's badge clearly... that's the shows crazy bike symbol on his badge where theres usually a number instead... just type - the prisoner - into google.. we are 100 percent correct Ras.

    I knew it.. if you don't think it's "The Prisoner" you are drunk as fuck.

    Me and Ras win... we are better nerds.

    The Simpsons did a whole episode about this show.. I'm surprized at you guys, get your nerd knowledge up.

    AMC re-made it a few years back as well.

    I'd say 8 isn't from Indiana Jones but rather from Doctor Who.

    1) I assume you're saying Flash III and not Flash II because of the outward bolts at waist level? I also suspect they reversed the image for the cover, since the bolt on his chest is backwards.

    5) Hmm. CBG wishes he was Venkman, the cool guy, or at least Dr. Egon Spengler, the geek, but both of them were rarely seen with the the Ecto Goggles, which was always worn by Ray, i.e., Dr. Raymond Stantz, i.e., Dan Aykroyd. The goggles are also reversed, implying this image too was reversed.

    14) DEVO Naturally DEVO, but if we're getting more specific, one member always seemed to have glasses on, but alas, so did another member periodically, and ironically, those glasses look like the second member's glasses. Given however that there were twelve different members of Devo, not counting live performers, and I can't tell them apart...
