Teen Choice Awards: All the Comic Book Movie and TV Winners

The 2019 Teen Choice Awards are officially in the books, celebrating a pretty eclectic mix of the past year’s pop culture. Unsurprisingly, the world of comic book and genre movies and TV shows dominated a lot of the categories, and ended up walking away with a few awards.

From superhero blockbusters like Avengers: Endgame, Aquaman, and Shazam, to other nerdy fare like Bumblebee and Men in Black: International, the movie categories had quite a lot for fans to keep an eye on. On the TV side, The CW’s comic-book themed shows had quite a lot of nominations, as well as fan-favorites such as Stranger Things, Gotham, and more.

So, which genre movies and shows from the past year took home a surfboard at this year’s TCAs? Read on to find out.
