Five Underrated Mandalorians and Concept Designs for Cosplay
Within the vast realm of Star Wars, the Mandalorians hold a prominent position in the ranks of popular cosplay subjects. For over a decade, as a dedicated cosplayer, I have experienced great excitement upon encountering novel characters and character designs at conventions attended with my sister and friends. These endeavors exemplify the beauty of the art form, not only in bringing characters to life through the eyes of talented artists, but also in sparking immense joy among children and families who cherish the opportunity to see their beloved characters materialize. Moreover, witnessing the creative interpretations and personal touches that cosplayers infuse into their designs is a captivating spectacle on social media. Among the most frequently portrayed characters, I have observed Bo-Katan Kryze, Sabine Wren, Padme Amidala, Ahsoka Tano, Hera Syndulla, and Duchess Satine Kryze. These portrayals serve as a testament to the dedication and artistry of the individuals who bring these characters to life.

My Mind Is Blown #1 My Mind Is Blown #2 Final Warning: Spoilers Ahead! I sat shellshocked with tears rolling down my face as the credits rolled.

My Mind Is Blown #2. Content Warning.
My Mind Is Blown #1 Final Warning: Spoilers Ahead! Wednesday has recently become my favorite day, thanks in part to the new release of new episodes of X-Men '97. The show captures the best of it predecessor, X-Men: The Animated Series, while simultaneously bringing in something new. It makes me want to go back in time to let the kid upset about The Animated Series ending where it did to let her know something even better would come to continue the story.

My Mind Is Blown #1. Content Warning.
Final Warning: Spoilers Ahead! I grew up watching X-Men: The Animated Series. Yes, it came out before I was born, but as the daughter of an X-Men fan, I was exposed to the many iterations of the popular group of characters from a young age. Even as I grew older, I often went back to the films (even The Last Stand) and the shows whenever the need for nostalgia hit me.

Why I Stopped Watching One Piece
If you know a thing or two about anime and manga, you donāt need me to tell you that One Piece is a legendary series. Deemed one of the āBig Threeā alongside two other powerhouse shonen that started around the late 90s and early 2000s, Naruto and Bleach, One Piece is the best selling and arguably most successful manga of all time (to the point where there was a joke circling around the Internet that it had sold more copies than the Bibleānot true, but donāt tell the fans that).

X-Men '97
The first two episodes of the new Disney+ series X-Men ā97 were a hit! The show is very well executed and seems to be very well received on the internet. We left off the second episode with Storm leaving the mansion due to the sudden loss of her powers and a duplicate of Jean collapsing in front of the team.
