Superman hanger, designed by Roman Ficek of Comunistar.
Designer Roman Ficek created this Superman hanger as a conceptual storage piece, allowing civilians to add a subtle superheroic touch to their closet. Unfortunately, the Superman hanger appeared to be available in limited qualities per request, circa 2007.
Perhaps DC Comics will take a cue from Ficek for potential merchandise ideas in 2012?

In honor of the many fans who’ve displayed    excellence    in     the         mastery    of  homemade disguise,    craftsmanship,  and       sartorial         superheroics,        ComicsAlliance has created  Best Cosplay Ever (This Week),                      a  weekly collection of some of the most  impeccable,          creative,      and        clever costumes that  we’ve discovered   and        assembled  into   our   own         super-showcase of pure    fan-devoted        talent.

Vintage Kryptonite necklace, $29.99, RetroNew.
“Make YOUR SUPERMAN Defenseless” (uh, what?) with this vintage Kryptonite necklace. Personally, I prefer my Kryptonite to be a more vibrant shade of green, but I really like how charming and inconspicuous this pendant is.
Regardless, my search for a Kryptonite ring continues forth~!
