Marvel 'Echo' poster design.

I'll admit that in the past I've been a little harsh about Marvel's movie posters but the most recent design to emerge from the MCU might have slightly swayed my opinion.

Not only is the poster a positive step for inclusivity but the design is both elegant and striking, creating a unique balance of functionality and style. However, while this might seem like a definitive sign that movie poster design is on the up, ASL (American Sign Language) signers have pointed out that the design might not be as praiseworthy as it appears.
