As one commentator noted regarding the staggering success of franchises like the Marvel Cinematic Universe, which has grossed over $20 billion, a key question remains: "How much... went to those who created the stories and characters in it?" Despite building their vast empires on the intellectual property devised by these creators, major publishers like Marvel and DC, under their standard contracts, largely deny them a fair share of the profits.

Why Renaissance Faires Still Hit So Hard Today
Renaissance Faires: A Living Portal to the Past If there’s one place where history stops sitting quietly in textbooks and starts dancing, laughing, and sword-fighting right in front of you, it’s a Renaissance faire. These festivals are more than themed events — they’re immersive time machines that bring the magic of the Renaissance era back to life. Whether you’re going for the costumes, the crafts, the storytelling, or the drama, a faire has a special way of pulling you straight into the 15th century.

Becoming Kitty Pryde: My Hero Time Custom Suit Experience
For many X-Men fans, bringing a favorite character to life is a magical experience. For me, that character has always been Kitty Pryde, an intangible, intelligent, and relatable mutant from Marvel's iconic lineup.
