Personal Notes
So, it's awesome that she's in Walking Dead and Marvel movies because they have a multitude of card sets. However, search for actors in these sets are difficult. They typically aren't marked by the actor's name, rather a character. Its easier to find Okoye, not Gurira. So it takes some work, but its worth it in the end.
