*headdesk* While this thread is founded on several forum faux pas, I'm going to leave it open just because that belt buckle may deserve a thread all its own.

Seriously, that part of the rape scene is one of many parts of the movie where I can imagine Dave Gibbons slapping himself on the forehead and going "Why didn't I think of that?!" And sure, the Comedian's belt buckle had a smiling mask motif in the graphic novel, but that was just a straight copy of the famous "comedic mask," often seen with the "dramatic mask" in association with theater. But here, the comedic mask looked just plain evil. It looked evil, sadistic and almost aware of the atrocity that Blake was trying to commit.

It was an inspired artistic choice on Snyder's part. Kudos.

At Comic Con, there was a pair cosplaying as SSI and Minutemen Comedian, and they actually had the belt buckle! I was very impressed. Forgot to ask where they got it though.
