He’s everyone’s favorite narcissistic, genocidal, squid loving, cultural appropriator! I also had fun with the props as I have the poisoned wine, the caught bullet, and a dreaded Doomsday Clock reference with Bubastis Junior.

Let me know what you think! I loved making this

“And for a moment, a brief, brief moment, the world and I knew peace.” - The Creature.

After watching the new Frankenstein on @netflix.com, I’ve not been able to get it out of my head. I thought it was a great film and I immediately wanted to attempt a cosplay.

This whole year, I’ve learned a lot about myself and grown more comfortable in my own skin. There’s still work to be done and I see a fair share of flaws, but I look to each challenge with excitement! The unknown can be a beautiful thing.
