Thanks! Lots of people liked it, and nearly everyone got it, unlike the Jack Frost costume which was my other one.
Edit: Well, to be clear many people were confused about the idea of crossplay / genderswap, but whatevs. Technically I was doing a genderswap and not a crossplay: I was a woman playing a female version of an originally male character, as was indicated by visible bra straps, no attempt to minimize my boobs, and bright red lipstick. I didn't particularly expect people to get that though. (The Jack Frost costume on the other hand was crossplay and not genderswap.)
I *was* disappointed though when I went up to the guy wearing Hulk hands and told him I was a big fan of how he turned into a huge green rage monster, and he didn't get the reference at all (quote from when Tony first meets Bruce in "The Avengers").
