Hench-Sized Comic Book Reviews – 1/3/26
Welcome to the world of tomorrow! It’s 2026 and we’re all struggling along. My town was hit with three snowstorms back-to-back-to-back in one week, so I’m having a doozy of a time. Thankfully I can work from home. And since there weren’t any major comic releases I was interested in this week, I’ve gone back to review all the major comics that came out the week of Christmas! That should be fun.
Comic Book of the Last Week goes to Absolute Wonder Woman #15 because the team-up between Wonder Woman and Batman was as good as we all hoped it would be.
Meanwhile, I very much enjoyed the Stranger Things series finale. It got pretty wild and pretty big, but came together nicely in the end. Beyond that, I’m finally finishing off Squid Games. On the video game side of things, I’ve started Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora after getting it on sale. Should hopefully sustain me for a couple of months, because I enjoy a big Ubisoft open world.
Comic Reviews: Absolute Superman #14, Absolute Martian Manhunter #7, Absolute Wonder Woman #15, Power Rangers Prime #13 and Void Rivals #25.

Hench-Sized Comic Book Reviews – 12/13/25
You guys. This week. Apparently when I got new landlords, they may or may not have cancelled the driveway snowplow contract? Found that out the hard way. Ugh. Anyway, coupla fun comics this week.
Comic Book of the Week goes to Absolute Batman #15 for a very excellent and proper introduction to the Absolute Joker.
Meanwhile, I’m about halfway through an anime my brother recommended, Frieren: Beyond Journey’s End. I don’t watch much anime, but have seen some from time to time. Pretty good so far. And then I’m still playing through Astrobot, because I’m in no rush when it comes to video games. I’m also finally reading Sex Criminals by Fraction and Zdarsky after I got the omnibus for Christmas last year. It’s also pretty good so far.
Comic Reviews: Absolute Batman #15 and Amazing Spider-Man #17.

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.

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.

Here we are, another week, another batch of comics. And they’re mostly good! There’s no point in even hiding the fact that we get the second Batman/Deadpool crossover this week!
Comic Book of the Week goes to Batman/Deadpool #1 because it more than lives up to the excitement.
Meanwhile, I beat both Ghost of Yotei and Dispatch, both of which were super fun games. Glad to have played them both. Now I’m looking for something new to play and that will last me until next November. I’ve been binging through all five seasons of You’re the Worst for the past week. Great show. And I’m considering when to go see the second Wicked movie…
Double meanwhile, the campaign is still ongoing for LobStar, the new comic made by my buddies at Very Big Comics. They’ve hit their goal, so if you jump on now, you’re guaranteed to get a comic! They’re raising bonus money now to try to fund some additional chapters of the story to go out to everybody. Check out their Kickstarter!
Comic Reviews: Batman/Deadpool #1, Captain America #5, Power Rangers Prime #12 and Wonder Woman #27.
