Happy belated sixth year anniversary to the Black Panther movie!

This past Friday, February 16th marked the sixth year anniversary of such an amazing movie. Newly crowned King T'Challa didn't really have a chance to get used to the title before having to deal with a rising threat to Wakanda by his cousin Erik Killmonger. When the betrayal and downfall actually happens, you can't help but experience it. Which made T'Challa return so special. As well as Black Panther, Nakia, Shuri and the Dora Milaje's triumphant win in the battle against Erik Kilmonger's Black Panther and the Wakanda deserters. I haven't rewatched this movie in a while, maybe I'll watch it this weekend.

Fashion Meets Comics & Fandom: 3 Summer Looks (Nakia, Pepper Potts and Rory Gilmore)

Summer is about fun, sun and relaxation and not to mention cute summer clothes. I was inspired by Nakia, Pepper Potts and Rory Gilmore to create three summer looks. What I love about each of the characters' outfits is that they are effortlessly stylish from a colorfully printed jumper to a modern hippie look each outfit gives you that feel of summer.


Nakia (Black Panther)

Even while trying to convince King T'Challa that Wakanda could do more to help the world, Nakia looked amazing in this African print green one shoulder jumper. I love this, the jumper has a casual yet sophisticated feel that could easily go from day to night.

Fashion Meets Comics: A Black Panther, Nakia and Okoye T-Shirt

As a female comic book fan, it's so hard to find t-shirts because most are in men's or boys sizes. Prior to geek culture becoming mainstream, there were not as many t-shirts in women's, girls or teen girls sizes available. I'm glad things having been changing because I love wearing shirts of my favorite characters.

I like this shirt, it has the Black Panther, Nakia and Okoye on it. I'm really thinking about getting it because it's pretty cool.

Throwback Thursday: Black Panther: Nakia Poster

I can't believe I didn't post this poster for Nakia back in February. The Black Panther movie did a wonderful job of showcasing some amazing characters especially the female characters. Usually most superhero movies only have maybe one or two female characters in prominent roles but Black Panther in my opinion really changed that. Nakia is an awesome character and I hope she will be in more Black Panther/MCU movies.
