As I'm organizing the documentary, I would also be curious to hear what you wish more people knew or appreciated about Spidersonas! Thank you all ♡ #spidersona #spidersonas #spidermanoc
If you’ve created a Spidersona, I’d love to hear your perspective & experience for my Master’s thesis—and this research will contribute to an academic article & a mini-documentary: forms.gle/wZVkJ9H27bnu...
