Hench-Sized Comic Book Reviews – 9/12/26
It’s going to be a small week for reviews because I sort of got distracted, apparently, and didn’t read many new comics. I’m going to be on vacation next week, and I think I was just ticking off these days to get through them. Anyway, here’s Fury of Firestorm,
Comic Book of the Week goes to The Fury of Firestorm #6 for an excellent finish to its first story arc! Can’t wait to see where we go next.
Meanwhile, I’m wrapping up Star Wars: Zero Company. It was a fun play, but far shorter than I was hoping for. I may do a second play through just to pad out my time. I’m still excited for the Wolverine game in the week ahead, even if the internet seems to be reveling in its okay-to-good reviews. I expect to still have fun with it, though it might also be shorter than I was hoping for. We’ll see!

Read the rest of this entryThere’s Another Monster Hidden in Godzilla Minus Zero
Godzilla Minus One was a masterpiece. Such a great film. I’m a Godzilla fan from the old school days of childhood yore. Not the original. I’m not even sure if I’ve seen the original. But those Saturday Morning Cartoon-style movies were so my jam! So I’m always down for more Godzilla. And Minus Zero looks cool as heck.
Not to spoil things, but holy crap you guys, there’s another monster in this trailer. Something drops Godzilla from a great height at the end. And the internet tells me that one of those roars is very specific to another classic monster. That got me legitimately hyped. When was the last time one of these serious Godzilla movies featured one of the other monsters? How cool will it be to see the other monster done in the style of the Minus One? Can’t wait!
Godzilla Minus Zero arrives in theaters on Nov. 6.

Deep Space Discounts Episode 9
I know what I like. I share what I like. For example, the newest episode of Deep Space Discounts by DeepBlueInk! The man is making good content, and I like sharing good content.
Good episode. Building up nicely to a season two finale. I hope DeepBlueInk can keep going with more and more seasons. I hope he’s making some good bank off this stuff on his Patreon. I hope the world continues to provide us with good content. We need it now more than ever.

Hench-Sized Comic Book Reviews – 9/5/26
Welcome to my birthday weekend! I’ve no big plans. Maybe see my folks. Treat myself to some nice food. I’m gonna buy the Wolverine video game for myself in two weeks. And then I’ve got good comics, like Absolute Superman and Daredevil.
Comic Book of the Week goes to Legion of Super-Heroes #1 for an excellent relaunch of this classic comic.
Meanwhile, I’m greatly enjoying Star Wars: Zero Company. It’s X-Com by way of Star Wars, which is exactly what I wanted. I’m just worried it’s gonna be over too soon with no endless mode — but then I’ll replace it with Wolverine, so I’ll be fine. Beyond games, I finished up the third season of Silo and enjoyed it, and I’m also currently making my way through the newest season of King of the Hill. So I’m in a good place, media and pop culture wise.
Also, stay tuned for a big announcement on one of my own comic projects soon! It’s far past time I introduced my readers to Cover Bard!
Comic Reviews: Absolute Superman #23, Daredevil #6, The Deadman #4 and Legion of Super-Heroes #1.
Read the rest of this entryThe Street Fighter Movie Is Still Coming!
There are still a lot of movies coming out this year and one that I’m very excited for is Street Fighter. Every trailer has looked amazing and hilarious and wickedly crazy. And I can’t wait to see that happen! Seems silly. Seems goofy. Seems wild and crazy. Seems perfect to me!
I don’t care much for the Mortal Kombat movies. The second one won me over by the end, but they’re not very good. But I have such high hopes for Street Fighter. It looks so perfect. The characters look amazing. The tone seems perfect. The effects could be something else! This could be one heck of a movie.
Street Fighter comes to theaters on Oct. 16.
