Geeking Out: Best of 2015
5. Marvel When doing the first few drafts of this list it became apparent to me that Marvel could just run the table. There was one point where I thought Marvel properties could have up to six spots on our best of 2015, and that felt a bit excessive considering there were so many geeky things I loved this year. Thoughts of briefly expanding the … Continue reading Geeking Out: Best of 2015
Geeking Out: Best of 2015
6. Hannibal My first encounter with the Hannibal universe came with the books (what can I say, I’m a purist) when I was about a sophomore in college. My father had just purchased the third novel in the series and I wanted to read it, but wouldn’t allow myself until I read the first two books. I’ve never had the ability to just jump into a series, … Continue reading Geeking Out: Best of 2015
Geeking Out: Best of 2015
7. Pop Vinyls First things first let me start by saying, Merry Christmas to each of you and yours (I include pets in this). I hope your Christmas has been geektastic and brought nothing but good cheer. Now I think that it’s time that I come clean. My name is Kevin and I have an obsession with Pop Vinyl figures. For those of you that know … Continue reading Geeking Out: Best of 2015
Geeking Out: Best of 2015
8. Game of Thrones, Hardhome I’m not entirely sure when it happened for me, but at some point I started holding TV shows in a higher regard than movies. Honestly it probably started happening during my viewing of LOST and was sealed with Breaking Bad. Stories and characters are what fuel me. I honestly can’t get enough of them so I search them out in every type of medium … Continue reading Geeking Out: Best of 2015
Geeking Out: Best of 2015
9. You’re Never Weird On the Internet (Almost) by Felicia Day Reading was something that was always encouraged by both of my parents and one of the things I’m most grateful for in life. Reading is like breathing for me. I love to read and feel sorry for those of us who don’t. I strongly believe it’s because they haven’t found the right genre of book … Continue reading Geeking Out: Best of 2015
Geeking Out
Welcome to what is going to become a weekly column here at I Am Geek. An area where I’m just going to choose whatever I’m currently geeking out about and discuss it here, hence the very catchy and original title. I think it could be a fun way to bring attention to some of the more random things that have my focus however fleeting that may … Continue reading Geeking Out
The Force Awakens…My Heart
First things first I want you all to know that this is not so much a review as it is more my history with Star Wars and my reaction to the Force Awakens. For those of you in fear of spoilers allow me to set your fears at ease, you will find none here. Spoiling Star Wars before someone gets to view it would probably … Continue reading The Force Awakens…My Heart
Jimmy Fallon, The Roots, and Star Wars Cast Melt Your Heart
Going to put this here to make your hearts happy while I finish up my Force Awakens reaction piece. Fell free to dance about in sure and utter glee. Continue reading Jimmy Fallon, The Roots, and Star Wars Cast Melt Your Heart
Ultimate End #5
Careful beyond this point there be spoilers yo Ugh. When this book was announced I was pumped. Secret Wars already had my attention and knowing in advance that this would lead to the Ultimate U and the 616 combining, with Bendis writing, had the hopes high. While I didn’t hop into the Ultimate Universe until after the death of Peter Parker (and even then I just … Continue reading Ultimate End #5
Secret Wars #8
Careful beyond this point there be spoilers yo I’m not going to lie to you and say that I’ve read all of Jonathan Hickman’s Avenger’s run, as a matter of fact I’ve only read a handful of issues. I always felt kind of on the outside, like it was too late to jump in because there was too much to catch up on. I think … Continue reading Secret Wars #8
