After attending Comic Con for my 1st time, I noticed a LOT of people that were under 6ft and most of DC is over 6ft so all the basics would work. I was asked at one time to go as x-men colossus. I thought I was to short to fit the part I'm 6ft2 and about 230 and thought I was to small ... I get to Comic Con & see a Gambit that was able to walk under my out stretched arm. So it would of worked. IF your going with a group, something to think on.... if your going on your own everyone already listed would be great!

I did do a Michael Myers costume, but unfortunately even the XL Warlock mask was a bit too small for my huge melon head

Sheesh. Can't believe nobody's suggested the Anime route.
Watch a few episodes of Full Metal Alchemist; it's one of the best animes out there, in my own humble opinion.
Two costumes come immediately to mind, depending on your body type. It's hard for me to visualize how 225# is distributed on a 6'6 frame, seems a little scrawny to me. If you're buff, you might be able to pull off Major Armstrong, the Strong Arm Alchemist..
The second one would be Alphonse Elric, Edward's brother. Basically a full-body suit of armor. You would be incredibly popular at any convention you showed up at.
A few other characters from the same series would be good cosplayed by a tall person.. give it a watch.
Another thing you could do is pretty much any of the Norse pantheon as portrayed in the Marvel "Thor" flick, depending on your body type.
Post up a picture of yourself, you'll get more personally tailored suggestions. Don't be bashful. :lol

Doctor who fan here and there are like six and half gazillion costumes someone can make no matter what height because so many aliens are used. the best this past season were obviously the silence and they looked to be over six feet tall.
All that's needed is snazzy suit and creepy bulbous head and you're in business
