by Mishal Ali Zafar

In a world desperately in need of hope, we can look to superheroes for inspiration. This has been a huge year for superhero films, with the releases of Wonder Woman and Spiderman: Homecoming, but undoubtedly, the biggest superhero movie of the year will be Justice League, set to release on Nov. 17 of this year. You know what that means — this Halloween, you need to find Justice League Halloween costumes for the whole family so you can all save everyone from terrible candy while trick-or-treating.

Justice League combines some of DC Comics' finest forces — Batman, Superman, Wonder Woman, The Flash, Cyborg, and Aquaman. They all have their own unique strengths and powers, which they bring together to save the world. So if your family is ready to unite their forces this Halloween, you can create your own super team inspired by the Justice League. (I mean, you're already Wonder Woman and your kids are basically The Flash with their lightning speed and constant energy, right?)

From adults to children, Justice League costumes are available through retailers nationwide, but if you want to add a little something from your closet, you can still make it look super incredible. These Justice League costumes for the whole family will get you on your way to hope and justice, and hopefully tons of candy and compliments, too.
