We had an amazing time at Fan Expo San Francisco. Thank you everyone who attended our panel, had awesome questions, and fantastic discussion after our presentation.

Life Legally After Being the Villain in Star Wars

Crosshair, Alexsandr Kallus, Barriss Offee, and Asajj Ventress, are all former villains who abandoned being the “bad guy.” Are they forgiven for their crimes? How is their status as former Imperial or Separatists handled legally? Kallus committed war crimes on Lasats. Is he forgiven for genocide because he joined the Rebellion? Barriss Offee committed acts of terrorism, became an Inquisitor, and then abandoned the Empire to become a healer. Is she forgiven? Crosshair enacted brutal attacks on behalf of the Empire and deserted after seeing Imperial cruelty to his fellow clones. Is Crosshair forgiven for those he killed? Join us for a discussion on law, forgiveness, atonement, and redemption from Star Wars The Clone Wars, The Bad Batch, Tales of the Empire, Tales of the Underworld, and Star Wars Rebels. Presented by The Legal Geeks.

Recorded Live at Baltimore Comic Con!

It’s a Bird! It’s a Plane! It’s a Felony? Did Superman Cause Us to Go to War?

Our favorite Kryptonian and adopted Earthling returned to the big screen in 2025, but legal issues abound in this movie, including: Is Superman an American citizen or even legally adopted? Can his actions represent the United States Government? Did Lex Luthor violate the Espionage Act? Which kind of license should Krypto have: dog or pilot? Can Supergirl be held legally responsible for drunk partying? Join our team of lawyers and comic book aficionados as they educationally and hilariously analyze these questions and more, with Michael Dennis, David Donovan, Joel Schwarz, and Mark Zaid. Presented by The Legal Geeks (TheLegalGeeks.com) in their first Baltimore Comic-Con appearance!
