Ra’s Al Ghul is the sometimes anti-hero, sometimes super villain leader of the League of Assassins. Created by Dennis O’Neil and Neal Adams, his first appearance in the DC Universe was in June 1971, in the comic series Batman number 232, titled “Daughter of the Demon.” His character is a complex one for only being around for about 40 years. Trained in ninja martial arts, he then instructed the other members of the League of Assassins. Their goal was to carry out assassin-type missions to keep the world in balance. As is their dogma, if something gets too corrupt and broken, as they see Gotham City has, the only way to restore order is to wipe the slate clean and start anew. To this end he met Batman, and thus started his daughter, Talia Al Ghul and Bruce’s love interest. Depending on the story arc, her Ra’s Al Ghul is responsible for the initial training of a young Bruce Wayne and chooses him as his successor. Bruce refuses the mantle as leader of the League of Assassins and instead follows his own path to save Gotham under the iconic bat symbol. This did not sway Talia who is the on-again off-again romantic interest of Batman, and even births Ra’s grandson, Damian Wayne, who would become the fifth Robin.
Creating your own Ra’s Al Ghul costume will not be that difficult. We also recommend this character as an excellent couples cosplay option in addition to a Batman costume, or a family including Talia, Batman and Damian.
