After almost 2 years, Alan Ritchson’s Reacher is back for its second season on Prime Video. The new season brings new characters, new adventures, and new stunning action scenes to the world of Reacher, but it also keeps one of the most important parts of Season 1. Both Season 1 and Season 2 make a point to recognize and give credit to the author of the Jack Reacher books, Lee Child. Child created the world of Reacher and it’s wonderful to see the series so openly recognize that.

There have been frequent criticisms that comic book movies don’t do enough to recognize where all of the great stories come from. Superman, Batman, Captain America, and Captain Marvel all come from comics and the movies need to start giving the creators their due. This is where comic book movies should look to Reacher for inspiration.One of the most prominent examples of this comes from Falcon and The Winter Soldier. When the series was released, the writer who popularized Bucky Barnes and made him into the Winter Soldier, Ed Brubaker, voiced some concerns about Marvel while on Kevin Smith’s podcast, Fatman Beyond. Brubaker discussed how seeing ads for the series upset him, he even said that “it actually kind of makes me feel sick to my stomach.” He goes on to ask why a major studio would want creators to feel that way. Later Brubaker also states:
