 Hi, I'm Caitlyn.
Watch Marvel make me a hero.
I am a project manager
in new media at Marvel.
My favorite part about
managing projects,
people, groups,
anything in that regard,
really is the problem solving.
I look at it as that
problem solving is
a creative effort
in its own endeavor,
and I'm a huge people person.
I love talking with people,
so any opportunity for me
to get to know someone
new and establish
that new connection
and relationship,
I absolutely love.
I was probably about 18
years old, the first time
that I had heard of Marvel--
my father being the most
excited maybe I've ever seen him
and saying, like, I'm
taking you and your brother
to the movie theater.
We're going to go watch this
thing that I was, like--
and he starts babbling
on about Iron Man.
And I'm like, I don't know what
this is, or what this means.
But sure, dad.
He's really excited.
Let's go.
And so he went, and it
was just like watching him
like a kid in a candy store.
It was a side of my father
I have literally never seen.
And then he brings us home.
And then he had my
father's childhood dresser,
and he brought it, and
he showed it to us.
And there was a mirror
on it, and there
was a little Iron
Man sticker of him
with, like, the bullet head--
and just telling us how much
that meant to him as a kid,
and how, religiously, that was
the one thing he cared about
as a kid was to go and
get the Iron Man comics,
and how much he
loved Tony Stark.
And it was just he'd
never shared that with us.
The power that I really wanted
to bring into this character
was light and
energy, because it's
something that exists
everywhere at all times,
whether you can see it or not.
She can use it to use
it as a levitating force
to kind of push her up or
move at the speed of light,
which would be very very, fast.
But predominately,
she would use it
for gathering into
energy balls if she
needed to use them as an attack
or beams, in that regard.
But she much would prefer
usually to channel them
into the form of a
weapon of some sort,
and then she can just channel
the energy through that
to form the shape of a sword.
I would like my
Super Hero to look
like me, like she's strong.
She's solid.
It's just average body
type, because anyone
can be a Super Hero.
For her hair, I would like a
similar kind of cut to mine,
but more brown
fading into blonde.
And the blonde, especially
when she's using that power
and pulling upon energy,
it would just kind of glow.
So my personal favorite color
is purple, and then the black
just being purely functional,
and any kind of armor,
I think would--
I would want it to
be that gold that
would really
complement the black
and the purple-- and
white for accents.
Knee high boots, for sure.
Leggings, so it's tight
and close to her body,
but easy to move--
and a bodice that is armor,
but it's comfortable.
And then a partial skirt that
would have this belt, where she
would kind of keep the handles
for all of her weaponry
that she would channel through.
Some gloves-- maybe I have
got some cool cut-outs.
I also would love to see her
with a tiara, not overpowering
and nothing that would fall off
her head when she's in battle,
but gives her a way
to channel and control
the energy around her mentally.
I would say that she
is a street-level hero.
If she ever got pulled into
a galactic level event,
I am sure she would absolutely
step up to the challenge.
That is so cool!
I love her armor up top and her
belt. That sword is so cool,
and I don't have high
heels, which is amazing.
I love how all of the
weapons are different,
and then there's
obviously the big sword
that is her go-to weapon.
You can tell that her
hair is growing too,
and it looks so cool.
I'm really, really excited
to show this to my family,
just knowing how much the Marvel
brand means and has meant to us
throughout all of these years.
