Comic Book Geek Andor: Season One – Review Stephen Bedard, November 25, 2022November 25, 2022 I have been a Star Wars fan for about forty-five years (Star Wars has been around for about forty-five years).

Comic Book Geek She-Hulk: Season One – Review Stephen Bedard, October 15, 2022October 15, 2022 I am thankful that Marvel is putting some more emphasis on their female superheroes and She-Hulk is a great addition to the MCU. She is a fresh character that connects with earlier aspects of the MCU. That’s the character, what about the new series? This is definitely not for everyone…. Continue Reading

Lewis and Friends Blog Rings of Power: Season One – Review Stephen Bedard, October 14, 2022 I have shared my first thoughts on the Ring of Power, now it is time to comment on the first season in general.

Comic Book Geek Sandman: Season One – Review Stephen Bedard, August 16, 2022August 16, 2022 Back when I collected actual comic books on a weekly basis, I remember picking up a new series to try out.

Comic Book Geek Star Trek Strange New Worlds: Season One – Review Stephen Bedard, July 1, 2022July 1, 2022 The first season of Strange New Worlds is not only some of the best Star Trek, but some of the best television I have seen in a long time. It is difficult for me to explain how much I enjoyed this show. Star Trek has expanded in many directions from… Continue Reading
Comic Book Geek Peacemaker: Season One – Review Stephen Bedard, February 23, 2022February 23, 2022 Peacemaker is not one of the most well known of the DC Comics characters. In fact he was not originally not a DC character. He was one of handful of Charlton Comics characters that DC bought. Peacemaker really became well known in the recent Suicide Squad movie. That movie was… Continue Reading
Comic Book Geek Wheel of Time: Season One – Review Stephen Bedard, January 8, 2022January 8, 2022 I heard some amazing things about Wheel of Time, with comparisons to Lord of the Rings and Game of Thrones.

Comic Book Geek Stargirl: Season One – Review Stephen Bedard, November 10, 2021November 10, 2021 One of the CW series that I was interested in was Stargirl. The reason is that I was overly familiar with Stargirl but I feel great nostalgia for much of the backstory. Before there was a Justice League of America, there was a Justice Society of America. Stargirl begins with… Continue Reading
Comic Book Geek What If…? Season One – Review Stephen Bedard, October 8, 2021October 8, 2021 Marvel has been producing some great television series on Disney + over the past year. This is a great time to be a superhero fan. While all of them have been very different style, What If…? has been particularly unique. The premise of the series is that things that we… Continue Reading
Comic Book Geek The Walking Dead: World Beyond – Season One Stephen Bedard, September 13, 2021September 13, 2021 As a Walking Dead fan, I was surprised that I hadn’t realized that there was another spinoff. I made sure to watch the World Beyond as soon as I could. What did I think about it? That’s complicated. It definitely did not grab me the way the original series or… Continue Reading
Comic Book Geek Loki: Season One – Review Stephen Bedard, July 15, 2021July 15, 2021 I will admit that I had my doubts about a Loki television series. Yes Loki is an interesting character and Tom Hiddleston does a fantastic job of portraying him. But Loki died in Avengers, and although a past version of him escaped, that seemed like a pretty thin foundation for… Continue Reading
Comic Book Geek Black Summer: Season One – Review Stephen Bedard, June 17, 2021June 17, 2021 As I have mentioned previously, I’m a sucker for zombie TV shows and movies. When I saw Black Summer on Netflix, I thought I would give it a try. I didn’t know when I started that it was by the people who made Z Nation and may be in the… Continue Reading
Comic Book Geek Star Trek Voyager: Season 1 – Review Stephen Bedard, February 3, 2021February 3, 2021 My goal is to watch every episode of every Star Trek series.

Comic Book Geek Star Trek Picard: Season One – Review Stephen Bedard, January 26, 2021January 26, 2021 I was not sure what to make when I heard they were coming out with a Picard series.

Comic Book Geek See: Season One – Review Stephen Bedard, April 23, 2020April 23, 2020 I have to confess that I’m a sucker for post-apocalyptic stories. Planet of the Apes, Walking Dead, Mad Max, Logan’s Run. So I was interested when I saw See (no pun intended) on Apple TV. The basic premise is that the world has been devastated by a virus (scary considering… Continue Reading
Comic Book Geek Supergirl: Season One – Review Stephen Bedard, April 3, 2020April 3, 2020 I actually just finished watching the first season of Supergirl. I know that I am way behind.
