This is the first in a new series of videos that I will be publishing on YouTube, to supplement the ongoing content on the Original Prop Blog. I have in the past published the occasional video on YouTube, but I saw the platform more as a place to host videos rather than as a “channel” per se, so mixed among content intended for the Original Prop Blog were other videos that had nothing to do with the Original Prop Blog.

However, I believe that things have shifted direction in 2018, so here are my thoughts on Comic-Con International this time around. [Read more…]

The photos further below are as the exhibit appeared on Saturday, which featured women as portrayed in MCU films and then Sunday, which featured villains.
