One Last Season of The Boys!
Next year will see the fifth and final season of The Boys, which has been an excellent show. I was a fan of the comic, I’m a fan of the show, and I’ve even enjoyed that Gen V spin-off. Good times all around, I say. And we’ve got out first trailer for the final season.
Looks good to me! All the stakes are there. Our heroes are lined up to be heroes. Our villains are gonna be villains to the end. I fully trust the showrunners to bring us home and deliver a great final season. I’m quite confident it won’t be anything like the final story arc on the comic, and that’s fine. I don’t need a faithful adaptation. The show has earned the right to be its own thing.
The final season of The Boys comes to Amazon Prime on April 8.

Hench-Sized Comic Book Reviews – 12/6/25
It’s been another hell of a week here in TV Land. I tripped and fell earlier and banged up my knees pretty bad. Nothing serious, but who needs this extra pain and suffering, am I right? Anyway, this week is more Batman.
Comic Book of the Week goes to Cheetah & Cheshire Rob the Justice League #5 because I love it when a plan comes together.
Meanwhile, I grabbed Marvel’s Cosmic Invasion game and it’s a pretty solid beat’em up so far. Nothing spectacular, but fun like these usually are. And I watched and thoroughly enjoyed the first part of the final Stranger Things finale. The show has still got it and I can’t wait for the rest of the season!
Comic Reviews: Batman #4 and Cheetah & Cheshire Rob the Justice League #5.
Read the rest of this entryVarious Trailer Friday!
Due to sheer laziness, I haven’t been posting as much as I probably should be these past few weeks. Just how I’m rolling these days, I guess. But I have been holding onto movie and TV trailers in case I ever do post more. And now I’m just gonna share a bunch, in case you haven’t seen them yet.
First up, this just came out yesterday, is a final trailer for A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms, the next Game of Thrones spin-off. This one looks good, I think.
I haven’t watched any of House of the Dragon. I’m not sure why. It’s supposed to be good. I just don’t have any interest in that corner of Westeros. But this one looks fun, following hedge knight Ser Duncan the Tall as he fumbles his way through being a knight, alongside his street urchin squire, Egg. Looks like a fun blend of comedy and heroic action.
A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms comes to HBO Max on Jan. 18.
Next up is a movie trailer for Ready or Not 2: Here I Come. The first film was a great horror comedy, and I can only hope the sequel is just as much fun.
Looks fun already! Kinda crappy that the main character gets immediately thrown into another death game. And I don’t quite think the escalation works as well as it could, given the story of the original, but I guess we’ll see. Let us hope for the best!
Ready or Not: Here I Come comes to theaters on April 10.
Another movie coming out next year is Project Hail Mary, from the same author who wrote The Martian. That’s a good sign. Be careful, there’s apparently a very big spoiler in the trailer that the studio has decided to just give away because it’s a major part of the movie anyway. I don’t mind being spoiled about this.
Yeah, this looks fun. It’s got the same love for science as The Martian, and seemingly the same sense of humor. Ryan Gosling is always fun. And it’s directed by Phil Lord and Christopher Miller, who have made some incredible films and probably can do no wrong.
Project: Hail Mary comes to theaters on March 20.
Lastly, it’s the next Pixar film, Hoppers, which looks about the same as any other recent Pixar film. They have really fallen from grace.
I haven’t even seen Elio, and I’m pretty sure it’s free for me to watch on Disney+. I just can’t be bothered. And I probably won’t be bothered with Hoppers. It’s no Mitchells vs the Machines! But it is coming out, and maybe some of you are into that sort of thing.
Hoppers comes to theaters on March 6.

Last Chance to Catch LobStar!
Today is the last day of the LobStar #1 Kickstarter campaign, so it’s your last chance to grab yourself a copy. They already hit their funding goal, so the comics will ship! Now they’re raising extra money to pay for the next chapter of the comic.
LobStar is the story of a New England lobsterman who gets lobster super-powers. It’s pretty neat! The comic is written by my pal Jamieson Alcorn, with artwork by Sierra Barnes, published by Very Big Comics. They’re part of my overall indie comic-creating crew, and it’s all about supporting one another. They’ll be helping me promote Cover Bard when it’s ready, and the next volume of Gamer Girl & Vixen.
So don’t miss out on LobStar!

Hench-Sized Comic Book Reviews – 11/29/25
Happy American Thanksgiving! The big day was two days ago and I had a really nice meal with family, and that’s why I didn’t read and review many comics this week. Mostly just indulged in my love of the Absolute Comics.
Comic Book of the Week is Absolute Batman #14, which is pretty much the pinnacle of what modern comics should and could be.
Meanwhile, I finished all five seasons of You’re the Worst and had a great time! Very enjoyable show. And I splurged on the Black Friday sale for Astrobot on the Playstation 5. Fun platformer so far. Lots of neat Easter Eggs that I mostly understand, because I’ve always been a Playstation man (only missed the PS3). Next up, I’ll be watching the Stranger Things episodes, get into the second season of Hazbin Hotel and will go see Wake Up Dead Man this weekend!
There’s also still time to order your copy of LobStar #1! The Kickstarter will end in the week ahead, and my peeps are looking to raise as much money as they can to make more comics!
Comic Reviews: Absolute Batman #14, Absolute Wonder Woman #14 and Infernal Hulk #1.
