Hench-Sized Comic Book Reviews – 4/16/16
Anybody else doing everything they can to avoid reading too many reviews for Captain America: Civil War? I can’t believe they’re out so early! They’re all so good that I just want to absorb as much as I can! But at the same time, I don’t want to spoil anything in the movie. It’s bad enough I’ve watched a few of the clips. Aargh! Why isn’t it May yet?
Until then, why not enough some comics? New issues of Amazing Spider-Man and Starfire grace our presence this week, as well as the launch of the Harley Quinn spin-off staring her Gang A’Harleys!
Comic Book of the Week goes to Silver Surfer #3. It’s been awhile since we saw an issue of this amazing series, but the wait was worth it!
And as always, don’t forget to check out my Kickstarter for the full Gamer Girl & Vixen graphic novel! We’re at the halfway point this weekend, so now’s the time to really gear up and hit the goal by the end!
Comic Reviews: Amazing Spider-Man #10, Harley Quinn and Her Gang of Harleys #1, Silver Surfer #3 and Starfire #11.
First Doctor Strange Trailer is a Weird One
The first trailer for Doctor Strange arrived on our Internet last night, and it gets pretty trippy.
I think I like it. The trailer doesn’t dampen my interest in the movie at all, but it might be a little too trippy for my tastes. We’ll see! The important thing is that this is going to be a great year for movies.
What did you henchies think? Let me know in the comments!

Cloak and Dagger Are Coming to TV!
The Marvel TV shows just keep coming! It was announced yesterday that Cloak and Dagger are coming to the Freeform channel, formerly ABC Family. I understand why they changed the name, but what kind of coked-up focus group came up with ‘Freeform’? Regardless, we’re getting a Cloak and Dagger TV show.
I am definitely a fan of all this comic book and superhero-based TV. Bring it on. I love the Marvel Netflix shows, I enjoy Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. and Peggy Carter, I like The Walking Dead, I’m looking forward to Preacher, I love Arrow and The Flash, I sometimes watch Supergirl; if you produce it, TV people, I will probably check it out.
What do you henchies think? Cloak and Dagger are solid characters, and their story could make for some good attractive young people-based romance.

Hench-Sized Comic Book Reviews – 4/2/16
Not a very big week for comics, I’m afraid — unless you count the launch of the Gamer Girl & Vixen Kickstarter today! Gamer Girl & Vixen is my own, self-published comic, and we’re trying to raise money to put out a 100-page graphic novel this year! Click the link and come check out the project. We’re even letting everyone read the first issue for free to see if you’ll like it or not! Any henchies interested in pre-ordering my comic are much appreciated!
In the regular comics world, this was a quiet week with few titles released. But that makes it perfect for the final issue of Batman and Robin Eternal! I’ve been slacking on covering this series, especially since it turned out to be pretty darn good. Batman and Robin Eternal #26 gets Comic Book of the Week!
Join me after the jump for my take on the entire 26-issue series. I rather enjoyed myself.
Comic Reviews: Batman and Robin Eternal #26 and Unbeatable Squirrel Girl #6.
