The description of the alien is incredibly vague. It could be anything from ET to a Xenomorph.

Cops hunt Catwoman, alien after Capt. Jack Sparrow hurt in Hollywood brawl
Fight broke out between several people dressed as movie characters

LOS ANGELES — Several people dressed as movie characters got into a brawl on Hollywood Boulevard that ended with a man dressed as "Pirates of the Caribbean" character Capt. Jack Sparrow being pepper-sprayed, according to police.

Officer Rosario Herrera said it was unclear why the Sparrow character, made famous in the movies by Johnny Depp, got into a fight with people dressed as Catwoman and an alien in front of the Kodak Theatre Thursday evening.

Officers responded to a call that there was a disturbance on the stretch of Hollywood Boulevard known to host costumed characters who hustle tourists for a few bucks in exchange for a photo with a celebrity lookalike.

Sparrow was treated for minor injuries. No arrests have been made.

The Los Angeles Times reported that officers were searching the streets after Catwoman, the alien and a second pirate — or at least people in those costumes — fled the scene.

The paper said that in September that someone dressed as SpongeBob Square Pants was held by police after a fracas involving two women in the Hollywood area; a separate incident saw Spider-Man taken away in handcuffs.

Why would people dress up as superheroes if they don't have superpowers?

I don't know. Nostalgia? If they had them once but lost them?

I...see....

I was just reading a piece the other week about the Lenin impersenators in Red Square. Apparently there's lots of them and they identify with names such as tall Lenin, fat Lenin, funky Lenin, etc...

I dress as a superhero every day.
It is called ACU, Army Combat Uniform.

Alternatively, we called it the monkey suit.
