As Oz Comic-Con beckons, sewing machines are whirring across the country as frantic Cosplayers make last minute alterations to their latest creation.
Oz Comic-Con guest Justine Gaudreau-Fewster from JusZ Cosplay took a break from the corsetry to marvel us with her top 5 comic book movies. Note: Batman vs Superman didn’t make the cut:
Captain America: The Winter Soldier
A tense political thriller with superheroes, plus excellent chemistry, drama and one-liners makes this the top of my list. I can watch it over and over.
The Avengers
The first time everyone assembles has the right blend of action, humour and drama to make it an almost perfect film.
Thor
A mythological, but also science-based, fish-out-of-water story that has an incredibly charming cast and manages to fit Thor perfectly into the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
X-Men
The movie that sparked my love of superheroes. Professor X and Magneto are perfection and the morality of the fight for mutants rights still speaks to me.
Wonder Woman (animated movie)
With a story by my favourite comic writer, Gail Simone, it's a perfect introduction to the Amazon Princess and packs a heck of a punch for an animated movie.
