Daredevil Season 3- “Tapestry”
By: John D. Pepe My father told me growing up, on more than one occasion, that “The choices we make dictate our lives.” How true that statement is. That little piece of wisdom has stuck with me my entire forty-six years of existence, helping guide my decisions, making me cognizant of the potential outcomes, both…

Punisher-“Revenge or Forgiveness”
By: John D. Pepe I really enjoyed The Punisher Series on Netflix. It was well written and Jon Bernthal truly captured the essence of the Punisher; the best Punisher so far in my opinion. I was enraptured by the series, so much so, that I found myself really rooting for the Punisher. I mean I…
Stranger Things 2: Dart the Demodog-Flirting with Danger

Iron Fist “Duality of Life”
By: John D. Pepe The first time I watched the Iron Fist series I was left with a feeling of disappointment. It just seemed to miss that “something” that the other Netflix Marvel Series had. I reluctantly decided to give it a second viewing, but watched with…
