A relatively new villain to the comic world, Anarky premiered in DC Comics in 1989. Created by Alan Grant, the writer drew inspiration from previous work on the Judge Dredd storyboard. Told to create a cross between the Black Spy from Spy vs. Spy and V from V for Vendetta, Grant produced what would become Anarky. Focusing on political and philosophical turmoil, this character became a charged fan favorite. Lonnie Machin was known as a child prodigy, even initially tricking readers to believe he was an adult. Throughout his career he embodied values in antimilitarism, anti-statism, environmentalism, economic inequality, and political corruption. Intended to only be a one-time appearance, Anarky was such a popular character that he became a recurring villain in the Batman universe. Spurring his own spin-off set of comics in the 90\u2019s, his popularity waned until being featured in the Batman Game series, Arkham Origins. This appearance renewed his popularity causing Anarky to be written into the New 52 series.

Anarky Costume: The Basics<\/h2>\n

Here is the catch with this character, while seemingly simple, to pull off a well-done cosplay of the Anarky Costume, there are a lot of little things that most people miss. Not to worry, that’s where we come in. We have put together a comprehensive guide to everything you need to create your own DIY Anarky Costume below.<\/p>\n

For the purposes of this guide we will focus on the two main Anarky Costume versions: the comic version and the Arkham Game series version. Here is what you will need to create your choice of a successful Anarky Costume:<\/p>\n

Anarky Costume: Arkham Game Version<\/h2>\n

Here are some tips for this version of the Anarky Costume:
\n– Keep in mind that you will need a red hood if you chose the Jabbawockeez Mask alone
\n– The White Fabric Paint is to create your own DIY messy Anarky Symbol, which will be more authentic than pre-printed anyway
\n– The Gold Fabric Paint is for the right knee pad, as seen in the reference costume photo at the top of the page
\n– Keep in mind the two different versions of black and yellow belts, as one is for the chest strap on the backpack, and one is for the waist belt
\n– Typically seen with a molotov cocktail, we have provided a safer prop version consisting of a red bottle and orange bandanna<\/p>\n
