Road to New York Comic-Con: Who Got The Props?

Props and Replicas Are Life Symbols are things that signify or represent an idea. If you attend Comic Cons, then you are a firm believer in symbolism. I own a replica of T’Challa’s panther tooth necklace and I feel kingly as all hell rocking it. There is a set of steel Wakandan Kimoyo beads that sit prominently on my side table. I wear a different colored Lantern ring on the emotional spectrum based on how I feel any given day. My closet has way too many meticulously chosen nerd-flavored tees that I used to express my mental state while out in the world. I legitimately utilize items from sci-fi, fantasy, and comics to get through the day and tell people who I am. So… Can you imagine how hyped I am to get a behind the scenes look at the goods at The Prop Store?!?! Not just replicas. Nah. Straight up pieces of production used on film! I’ma be at New York Comic Con with Battling Jack Murdock’s red and yellow fight night outfit! As a native New Yorker, I am honored to be the same distance above sea level with Daredevil’s dad’s boxing paraphernalia. That gritty NYC determination that the 80s/90s Hell’s Kitchen had before it became Hell’s Breakfast Nook. That’s the magic of these symbols, they personify a type of idea.
