though it’s very understated in the story of dark universe and I’ll never be able to fully understand it on a personal level (given I am as white as a stereotypical sheet ghost) victoria frankenstein’s blackness is so important to me. the first original character to reach the major orlando parks in over a decade, created by a team that works in a very white industry, carrying the evolution of well loved films/books with heavy social baggage, and the central pillar of a world that merges history and modernity to create something that’s never been done before. and she’s a mixed race black woman going to extreme lengths to prove herself. to prove that she won’t just continue a long cultural and artistic legacy but will make it even better.
