Hey folks! Today I’ve got a little help from Artist Benjamin Dewey .
He was nice enough to let my terrible writing represent his beautiful artwork, so thank him by following the guy on Instagram and being very nice to him.
Spoilers!
Obviously, if we want to talk about Season 8, we’ll have to spoil some things for the people still kicking around on Season 2.
Seriously, stop what you’re doing and catch up with the rest of the world.
So, Season 8.
All in all… I thought it wasn’t as bad as everyone is saying it was.
I mean, we got some cool reunions in the beginning, Jaime betrays his sister and sells her out to the… uh… “good guys”.
Then, we have the Battle Of Winterfell.
Which was pretty cool, I mean we saw some dragon fights, we saw Arya use her awesome ninja skills to kill the crud out of the Night King.
All in all, I thought it was dark (literally) but decent.
Then we got the battle of King’s Landing.
Which again, was pretty cool.
We got to see a lot of dragon and fire action, as well a little bit of Daenerys led genocide. Which always makes for good TV.
And finally, we got the finale.
Which wrapped the story up in a nice little bow.
However, some people are calling this season the “worst season ever” and even rating it much lower than most of the other episodes.
But… is there a way Season 8 could’ve been better?
Enter artist Benjamin Dewey .
He’s a talented guitar player and (from what I’ve been told and dreamed about) a wonderful husband. However, today we’re going to look at his illustrating skills: and the scenes he wishes he could’ve seen in Season 8.
First off, we get this awesome picture.
Which I think would obviously happen during the Battle Of Winterfell.
I mean, the spiders were kind of built up at that point and any more direwolf action is always welcome.
Next, we get some cool Bran action.
And this would’ve been awesome because it would’ve given Bran something to do during the battle and people wouldn’t be making fun of him for being so “useless”.
Unless of course he was being used as bait, which is on the same level as “Scooby Doo”.
Another use for Bran here.
And another scene that would’ve been awesome.
Also, it would’ve made Arya creeping up on the Night King a little more credible (for all the skeptics out there).

He wanted to see a talk between powerful women.
Which (and you might be seeing a pattern here) would’ve been totally awesome.
You’d get to see a shift in power that’s occurring in this new Westeros, and the new role women are getting to play in it.
This one…
I feel like we got, but I think what he’s trying to say is that Ghost and Jon should’ve gone their separate ways? And miss all sorts of wacky adventures beyond the wall?
Still, the scene would have been touching.
A cool “heisty” rescue…
This also probably would’ve been a good place for the Hound to run into his brother.
And it would’ve boosted the relationship between Grey Worm and Missandei.
We have some geniuses getting together…
Maybe the plan would be A) How to defeat the Night King at Winterfell or B) How to take King’s Landing, only to have Dany go against the plan and burn the place down.
And finally, the best scene of them all.
And honestly, Ser Pounce should’ve stayed on the Iron Throne.
He should have won the Game Of Thrones. A fair, but just ruler as long as you stay out of his sun.
How about you?
Were there any scenes you would’ve liked to see in Season 8?
I would like to take this opportunity to thank Benjamin Dewey once again. Please follow him on Instagram and donate to his Patreon and if you see him irl give him a kiss on the forehead.
