Cosplay Feature: MissBriSolo's Starfire!

So I've actually been a HUGE fan of Bri's work for a really long time. Not just for her cosplay and obvious insane beauty but her other passion in life. That being fitness and sharing some of her gym routines. She's also been a big podcast dream guest for me on my show so it's surprising to me that I've taken this long to share her work on the blog. At the time of gathering people to share, Bri had mentioned online she was working on a build of Angela from the Spawn comics (though having now been integrated into Marvel Comics). Specifically though the character has just been added to Marvel Rivals' roster and so her design really spoke to Bri. By the time you're reading this, she actually finished the cosplay and shared full shots so I'll be doing a write up on that sometime in Nov or Dec. So what other character of hers do I gush about in the meantime? Uhhhhh.....Starfire? Cause GOOD GOD SHE LOOKS SO GOOD!

Review: The Co-Creator


This past weekend I had the awesome experience of attending a play over at The Arctic Playhouse. The play in question was titled "The Co-Creator" and written by Lenny Schwartz. If you couldn't tell by the title image, the premise was basically a life story of Bill Finger. Known famously as the co-creator to Batman next to Bob Kane, Bill was wrongfully uncredited for coming up with many aspects of the Batman universe. From Robin, Ace the Bathound, to the Joker and Riddler, Bill also had a hand in creating other characters such as the Green Lantern Hal Jordan. The play took place within a medium sized room with a very entertaining stage. I really enjoyed the total cast of 15 actors and actresses.

The roles of Bill Finger and Bob Kane were portrayed by Chris Ferreira and Brad Kirton respectively. I wasn't too informed on the backstory for these 2 creators but I was really surprised at hearing the true story behind Batman's creation. Both of these fine gentleman did such an incredible job in portraying such iconic creators. There was lots of humor throughout the story and I chuckled at the various references to other DC properties such as Coast City being mentioned when they were trying to come up with the city at which Batman lives and fights crime in. Other notable DC men were mentioned like Julius Schwartz throughout the play. It was very interesting to see the things that Bill had to go through with his marriages along with being tormented by Bob Kane achieving all this fame.

Lots of work and love went into this play and I loved the various Bat memorabilia that decorated the playhouse. The production clocked in at about 1 hour and 45 minutes with a 10 minute intermission. As someone who's big into comic books and the Batman universe I was extremely entertained overall and would definitely recommend anyone who lives nearby in RI to check it out during any of the weekends it's being shown throughout the month of April.

Note: Apologies if this review seems really short, I'm not that well skilled in reviewing plays since well this was my first one done ever.
