Geek Apparel of the Week: Agent Carter Silhouette Shirt
 |
Take a second to think about every Black Widow lack-of-merchandise complaint you’ve seen on social media. Now look at this. Clearly somebody at Marvel knows how to design a desirable shirt featuring a female hero.
Reedpop’s silhouette shirt fulfills the true test of any licensed merchandise – does it work and look cool even to somebody who has no idea what the source material is? Absolutely, yes – fans of film noir and pulp fiction can appreciate the style. In exchange, wearers of the shirt will probably have to put up with a lot of “Oh cool! Sin City!” comments. Seems a minor price to pay.
