The Blue Mosquito sounds like “The Tick” to me. ---

A codpiece is nice–the bigger, the better! ---

You can make a couple of sad-ass droopy wings this way: take some coathangers and bend them into big hoops. (Just pull on the bottom wire.) Get a cheap pair of queen size panty hose. Cut the legs free and pull one over each hoop. Spraypaint (badly). Attach to each other at the hook section of the hanger - put a pair of elastic loops to go around your shoulders. For extra bonus pathetic points, leave the hooks on the clotheshangers, make the hoops in two completely different shapes, and don’t pull the pantyhose all the way over the hoop on one side, so the foot just dangles there. For your nose, I recommend attaching a cheap plastic turkey baster to your mask or glasses. Make it obvious that it’s a cheap turkey baster. And I like the baggy tights thing, but I’m seeing you in a pair of longjohns with the flap over the butt. ---

Heehee. Ross Rivers can be your secret alter-ego. Don’t forget to introduce yourself as “Hi! I’m Ross. Dammit! I mean, Mosquito Man! I am Mosquito Man! Bzzzzzzzzzzz!” Wings are a good look for a daggy superhero. Cute little wings that sit oddly, what with your cape and all. ---

My first thought was a big blue flyswatter - but on second thought that might be the last thing you’d want around… ---

I like the idea about the crappy wings, and the name (Hi my name is jarrod…DAMMIT i mean the Blue Mosquito…) I will most probably have a blue spikey wig. And a mask made of blue satin. Dont know about my upper body yet. Maybe i will have some Elbow/Knee pads… I will be sure to get a pic once i am done. ---

If you don’t already have a potbelly, time to fashion yourself one! Also, put mosquito wings on your boots. It will let people know you are serious. I don’t know if this has been mentioned, but get some tea strainers and fashion yourself some glasses for “bug eye” vision. And you sure as hell better have your logo on your chest. ---
