For those unfamiliar with him, The Crimson Ghost is the title character of the Republic Pictures serial. He was the villain of the serial, and later went on to become the mascot for the band the Misfits. His head was a candy topper I found last Halloween. It was bugging me that it looked really familiar until I bought a copy of the serial. The pants are Applause Dick Tracy, shoes Hasbro Clark Kent, the cape, robe and skeleton gloves are me. Gun is a cast of Captain Action's from Fred.

Great custom! Looks really cool with your Batman. Very pulp/serial like. There
is some real potential in customs based on serial characters.
