Last Day to Order Cover Bard #1!

Today marks the final 24 hours of my current Kickstarter for Cover Bard #1! So everybody rush on over to the campaign page and order your copy because you’re fans of my blog. Are there fans of my blog? Man, I sure hope so.

So yeah, my writing partner, Kristi McDowell, and I have both released solo comics through our imprint, Very Big Comics. She wrote The Yearbook Club and I wrote the first issue of my original series, Cover Bard. You can click here to learn more about the comic.

I love and appreciate all the support my readers can give my comic projects. I’ve got more in the works after this, including Cover Bard #2. I’ve got that whole mini-series planned out. And I’m working on a new project in the Gamer Girl & Vixen universe! As well as Gamer Girl & Vixen Volume 3!

So many comics to come!

Hench-Sized Comic Book Reviews – 10/17/26

Very good week for comics this week! Nothing Absolute or Midnight for me to check in on, so instead it’s just a bunch of very enjoyable normal superhero comics, like Amazing Spider-Man and a new Venom relaunch!

Comic Book of the Week goes to Legion of Super-Heroes #2 for another very fun adventure that throws us right into the deep end of this new Legion relaunch.

The future is dangerous

Meanwhile, it’s the final week for my comic book Kickstarter! Cover Bard #1 hit its funding goal on Friday to get printed copies, then everybody can read a comic I wrote myself! Help me prove to the world that I can put my money where my mouth is, and write comics as well as review them. Check out the campaign page or check out this look at the issue to get an idea where it’s for you.

Also, I didn’t really care for the Street Fighter movie, despite being so hyped for it all year. Just kind of a mess of a movie.

Comic Reviews: Amazing Spider-Man #1001, Legion of Super-Heroes #2, Venom #1 and Iron Man #10.

And Here’s a Bass Reeves Anime

It’s a random Thursday. Just trying to get through the week. And I randomly found this trailer this morning for a Bass Reeves anime on Netflix. Looks pretty dope.

Bass Reeves was a real person in a post Civil War world, and his star has been rising in recent years with more media appearances. He hasn’t had a full Hollywood movie yet – I don’t think – but an anime on Netflix where everybody pilots mechs should suffice. This looks pretty gnarly and pretty fun.

Bass X Machina comes to Netflix on Nov. 3.

Hench-Sized Comic Book Reviews – 10/10/26

What a week to get into the Halloween spirit! Not only has DC finally released its highly anticipated new Etrigan comic, but Marvel dropped all three debut issues of its new Midnight line in one go! And I read them all! Spider-Man! Fantastic Four! X-Men! And yet…

Comic Book of the Week goes to The Demon #1 because I had the most fun with this debut issue. I know what I like.

Make me

Meanwhile, I hated everything about Ted Lasso season 4 and loved pretty much everything about Lanterns season 1. I finally finished the new Wolverine video game and I enjoyed it overall. I’m thinking of doing a review in a week or two. Now I need to find me a new game to sustain me until November 19…

Also, my Cover Bard comic book Kickstarter is oh so close to hitting its goal! As always, I invite anyone reading my reviews to check out my own comic because I am fully capable of putting my money where my mouth is. I can review other people’s comics and then write my own to be reviewed!

Comic Reviews: The Demon #1, Midnight Fantastic Four #1, Midnight Spider-Man #1, Midnight X-Men #1, Absolute Superman #24 and The Deadman #5.

6 Thoughts on the First Season of Lanterns (Review)

The first season of Lanterns has come and gone and it’s turning out to be pretty controversial online — at least in the circles I frequent. Lots of ‘Surf Dracula’ talk. People upset that there wasn’t more Green Lanterning. You know how the internet can be. Well I’m here to deliver my personal opinion and review on the first season of Lanterns!

TV Show Rating: 8/10 – Very Good

I liked it a lot! I will admit that my grade did go down a level from when I started writing this list until after watching the finale, but I’m not one of the people who hated the finale. I thought it was a solid ending to a solid show, which stuck to its intended tone and story all the way through. Surf Dracula? Maybe. Does that bother me? Not with Lanterns, not really. But I’ll get more into the nuance later. The important thing is, we have a Green Lantern TV show and there’s going to be more in the future!

Join me after the jump for my full thoughts on the first season of Lanterns. Expect FULL SPOILERS for the entire season. And feel free to share your own thoughts in the comments below.
