Museum of the Uncanny: The Lost Archives are Open!
My favorite people are making more comics! As readers of this blog are aware, I’m a wannabe, amateur comic book maker. And a few months ago, one of my short stories was featured in the Museum of the Uncanny anthology by Very Big Comics. This is my comic-making collective of friends and people and it’s been a blast.
Well they’re back with the sequel: The Lost Archives, featuring even more short comic stories.
I’m not in this one, but I fully support Very Big Comics and everything they do. We’ll be working together to produce some more of my own work in the very near future. So I am spreading the good word to get more people to check out the new volume!
Give it a click, check out some of the short stories on display and consider backing the Kickstarter. The more comics in the world the better, I always say.

Hench-Sized Comic Book Reviews – 3/21/26
Well well well, what have we here? Another batch of comics to review and another bunch of random people from the internet to read them? How delightful. Especially when we’ve got stuff like Wonder Woman and X-Men!
Comic Book of the Week goes to Batwoman #1 for a solid start to a new era at DC Comics. I’m looking forward to a lot of these creator-driven comics.
Meanwhile, not much going on in my life. I’m taking a break from video games for a while, though I’m keeping my eye on Crimson Desert. I just watched and enjoyed the second season of Ted and I’m gonna go see Project: Hail Mary at the movie theater this weekend. So I’ve got that going for me, which is nice.
Comic Reviews: Batwoman #1, Wonder Woman #31, X-Men #27, Captain America #8 and Cyclops #2.

Hench-Sized Comic Book Reviews – 3/7/26
What a week, what a week! I was off from work this week and mostly spent my time lounging around not doing much of anything. Good times. I got caught up on a couple of comic series that I’d abandoned a while ago. So that was nice. And we’ve got review for those comics, like Absolute Flash and X-Men.
Comic Book of the Week goes to Batman #7 for doing something new and potentially interesting with the Joker.
Meanwhile, I hurt my thumb somehow so I couldn’t play anything video games with a thumb stick this week. Instead, I built some LEGO and started watching the final seasons of My Hero Academia. Let’s hope the show ends well. I also watched Strip Law on Netflix and it was good. I like watching these random adult animated shows on Netflix, and this one was particularly weird and wacky in all the ways I like.
Comic Reviews: Absolute Flash #12, Absolute Superman #17, Batman #7 and X-Men #26.

Hench-Sized Comic Book Reviews – 2/28/26
As of today, I’m on vacation! Got a week off from work to just relax and not experience the winter anymore. Should be nice. And we get to start out with a bunch of good comics, like Iron Man and Absolute Martian Manhunter.
Comic Book of the Week goes to Absolute Wonder Woman because that comic can do no wrong.
Meanwhile, I started playing Subnautica: Below Zero, because it was recently free on Playstation Plus. I’ve never played the original Subnautica, but free is free. I’m enjoying it, because I like these gathering/building/exploring games. I can throw on some YouTube on the side and just mosey around. Fun so far. All my anticipated games are coming out in the fall. I’ve also started watching the recent TV adaptation of The Rainmaker, which is my all-time favorite book, at least it was when I was a teenager getting into grown up books. I don’t have a lot of faith in this show, because I’m going to be too much of a stickler.
Comic Reviews: Absolute Martian Manhunter #9, Absolute Wonder Woman #17, Iron Man #2 and Void Rivals #27.
