Hench-Sized Comic Book Reviews – 4/26/25

Another week has come and gone and another batch of comics is upon us. A ton of books I’m reading came out this week, and somehow I found the time to review a whole bunch of them, including Absolute Martian Manhunter, Batman: Hush 2 and Amazing Spider-Man.

Comic Book of the Week goes to Absolute Wonder Woman, which shouldn’t be a surprise, because few things can touch this comic other than the regular Wonder Woman book and the other main Absolutes.

It’s an arena arc

Meanwhile, I finished The Pitt last night and it definitely lived up to all the hype its been getting! Excellent medical drama. And I’m winding down on Kingdom Come: Deliverance II and am in need of another game. Possibly that Elder Scrolls: Oblivion remaster…

Double meanwhile, the Kickstarter campaign remains ongoing for The Museum of the Uncanny anthology! I’ve got a short comic story in the book and we’re doing well as we head into the final weeks of the campaign! Force me to put my money where my mouth is! I spend all this time reviewing comics, come and read one I’ve written myself!

Comic Reviews: Absolute Martian Manhunter #2, Absolute Wonder Woman #7, Amazing Spider-Man #2, Batman #159, G.I. Joe #6 and X-Men #15.

Hench-Sized Comic Book Reviews – 4/19/25

We’re back, baby! Just as we are every week, talking about new comics and whatnot. Been a busy week. But I found time to read a couple of comics, like Wonder Woman and Exceptional X-Men.

Comic Book of the Week goes to Absolute Flash #2 for helping me to better understand and appreciate what this comic might actually be about. Though knowing myself, I’m probably way off.

You ain’t got nothin’ on him

Meanwhile, I’m wrapping up Kingdom Come: Deliverance II and had a blast with this game! Lived up to all the hype and expectations! I enjoyed the finale of Daredevil: Born Again and hope to have my full review/thoughts posted next week. And I’m currently working my way through The Pitt, a show that is also living up to the hype around it.

Double meanwhile, the Kickstarter campaign remains ongoing for The Museum of the Uncanny, a comics anthology in which I have a short story! So if you’d like to support my comics work and a bunch of other creative people, head on over and check out the campaign!

Hench-Sized Comic Reviews – 4/12/25

I don’t know about you, but weeks have started to feel very long these days. Thankfully, this week still managed to come to an end, so we’ve got that going for us. Solid week for comics, though I didn’t read too many. At least we’ve got new Absolute Batman, eh?

Comic Book of the Week goes to Amazing Spider-Man #1 for a solid, enjoyable relaunch of the main Spider-Man series, which I am again willing to check out.

We should all be grateful they didn’t change comic Rhino to match either movie Rhino

Meanwhile, I’ve got a short comic story in a new anthology that’s on Kickstarter right now! Museum of the Uncanny is a collection of short stories about weird and quirky artifacts, and my story is called “The Normal Quesadilla Maker That Definitely Can’t Talk.” So if you enjoy reading my comic reviews, I invite you to check out the Kickstarter and perhaps support my comic writing as well! You can also order physical copies of both Gamer Girl & Vixen books as add-ons in this campaign.

Also, I watched the fifth season of the Harley Quinn cartoon and am super pleased to say that it is back on form! Really entertaining season that felt like the early seasons again.

Comic Reviews: Absolute Batman #7 and Amazing Spider-Man #1.

Hench-Sized Comic Book Reviews – 3/29/25

I’ve been noticing something weird lately…I don’t really care for Marvel Comics at the moment. All the best comics are coming out of DC. Wild. Anyway, here’s a review list that’s mostly DC Comics!

Comic Book of the Week goes to Wonder Woman #19 for an excellent end to the first story arc, and all the teases for the next story arc. I’m quite satisfied.

She is pretty great

Meanwhile, I’m still working my way through Kingdom Come: Deliverance II. The game is everything I hoped it would be and I’m having a blast! Gonna spend a lot of time in this world. I’m currently working my way through the newest season of Invincible. Fun stuff, as expected.

Comic Reviews: Absolute Martian Manhunter #1, Absolute Wonder Woman #6, Batman #158, Power Rangers Prime #5 and Wonder Woman #19.

Hench-Sized Comic Book Reviews – 3/22/25

Welcome back to the world of comic reviews! I’ve been on vacation this week, and one would think that would give me more time to read comics and review them, but nah. I’m as lazy as ever. But we’ve got a good batch this week with the likes of Absolute Flash and G.I. Joe.

Comic Book of the Week goes to Absolute Batman #6 for a very bombastic finale to the first story arc.

We never got an explanation for the people with tentacle heads

Meanwhile, I spent the majority of this week finally diving into Kingdom Come: Deliverance II and it’s everything I hoped it would be! I still haven’t mastered combat in the way you’re supposed to, but I do well enough. There needs to be an unlimited training mode/testing ground to practice. I saw The Day the Earth Blew Up in the theaters, and that was a hoot. And then the Severance season 2 finale was the bomb, yo! It’s been a good week.

Comic Reviews: Absolute Batman #6, Absolute Flash #1, Exceptional X-Men #7 and G.I. Joe #5.
