Hench-Sized Comic Book Reviews – 4/25/26
Big to medium week in comics this week, folks! Frankly, any week with a new Absolute Wonder Woman is a big week, but we’ve also got the new Spider-Man/Superman crossover from Marvel! The last crossover of this big celebration period!
Comic Book of the Week goes to Absolute Wonder Woman #19, though, for a pretty much perfect comic. This one is on fire as Absolute Batman.
Meanwhile, I still feel like I’ve barely scratched the surface of Crimson Desert. I splurged on the game because I knew it was a big, open world RPG and that’s exactly what I’m getting! But it’s almost too big! I spend a lot of time seeking treasure and new outfits, while progressing story and side quests at a nice pace. Quality game; glad I bought it, hopefully it’ll sustain me all the way until Wolverine in September.
Comic Reviews: Absolute Wonder Woman #19, Captain America #9 and Spider-Man/Superman #1.

Hench-Sized Comic Book Reviews – 4/19/26
Comics! You love’em. I love’em. What’s not to love? Especially when we’ve got some solid bangers like Wonder Woman and Batwoman to celebrate this week.
Comic Book of the Week goes to Absolute Batman #19 for a pretty much perfect comic, kicking off the big new storyline with style and pizzazz.
Meanwhile, the Museum of the Uncanny Kickstarter campaign is in its final week! They’ve got a ways to go to hit their goal, but I know they can do it and I know you lovely readers will check out the campaign and give some support to some indie comic creators! That’s what we’re all about!
Double meanwhile, I splurged and bought myself Crimson Desert and I’m definitely enjoying the game. I still feel like I’m taking it slow, considering everything I’m seeing online. But it’s a fun action RPG with a big open world to explore! Beyond that, I’m enjoying Daredevil: Born Again, enjoying Maul: Shadow Lord and the season 3 finale of Shrinking was wonderful.
Comic Reviews: Absolute Batman #19, Batwoman #2 and Wonder Woman #32.

Welcome back to the world of comics, party people! Mostly a quiet week for comics this week, I think, but we’ve got some strong issues of Iron Man and Power Rangers Prime.
Comic Book of the Week goes to Fury of Firestorm #1 for a very strong, very exciting first issue!
Meanwhile, my pals at Very Big Comics are humming along nicely with their Museum of the Uncanny Kickstarter. Check them out, they do good work and make good comics! I promise you won’t be disappointed. It’s a collection of spooky and fascinating short comic stories and could use all the love it can get!

Hench-Sized Comic Book Reviews – 4/4/26
I’m back with more comic book reviews! I missed last week because I was busy and sick, and I missed the Superman/Spider-Man team-up! The shame is immense. But thankfully we’ve got some real bangers this week, like some new Absolute Superman and a new Daredevil run!
Comic Book of the Week goes to Bizarro: Year None #1 for some truly fantastic artwork!
Meanwhile, my pals at Very Big Comics have a Kickstarter running for the second volume of the Museum of the Uncanny anthology! These are great creators putting in the good work in the amateur comic trenches, just like me. I had a short story in the first volume! So if you’re a fan of my reviews, please head over and check out Museum of the Uncanny: The Lost Archives and consider backing the project and ordering a copy! Thank you so much!
Comic Reviews: Absolute Superman #18, Batman #8, Bizarro: Year None #1 and Daredevil #1.
Read the rest of this entryNew Trailers for Supergirl and Masters of the Universe Sure Are Neat!
Sorry I haven’t posted more over the past few days, and missed this weekend’s comic book reviews. Not only am I having a busy week at work, but I also came down with a cold on top of that. So man…just haven’t been in a posting mood. I think the cold dulled my sense of artistic appreciation. I went and saw Project: Hail Mary while sick, and…eh. It was fine.
Anyway, yesterday we got two big trailers for a couple big movies this summer.
First up is Supergirl, which a fuller trailer that looks pretty cool.
I am fully on board with this movie. I loved Superman last summer, and I love what they’re doing with Supergirl. I also very much love the comic this movie is based on, Woman of Tomorrow. Honestly, watching that trailer, I’m a little worried that I’m going to be too much of a stickler for the comic. I hope that’s not the case and I can just sit back and enjoy this Supergirl movie, which should be a hoot.
Supergirl comes to theaters on June 26.
We’ve also got a new Masters of the Universe Trailer.
I think it looks great! I devoured all those toy commercial cartoons in the 1980s, as a wee lad. Ninja Turtles was top of the heap for me, but I definitely watched He-Man and had a few of the toys. And I very much like that this movie looks like a big toy commercial. Bright, colorful, full of action and characters; it’s not shying away from the lore. I’m not a stickler for He-Man lore, but I think this should be a really fun way to approach this film. Embrace the camp.
Masters of the Universe comes to theaters on June 5! So it’s gonna be a fun June.
