Most days, Bay Area resident Bill Burns is a sign artist. But on other days… he can be J. Jonah Jameson, Spiderman’s short-tempered editor… or the Star Wars villain, Count Dooku.
And he’s not in costume because Halloween is around the corner. Bill is also a cosplayer. In 2022, he went viral for performing a very realistic Walt Disney at Disneyland. Bill has been dressing up in costumes as a hobby since he was a kid. And at 61, he continues to bring a lot of people joy embodying characters.
