The Doctor Strange Trailer Debuts Tonight!
But until then, how about you cast your peepers on this awesome poster!
I dig it! And I’m excited for the trailer. Doctor Strange should be good! Marvel movies are my jam.

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.
All characters have hope
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!
Very close to everything I want in comics
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.
Hawkeye Fan Film is So On Target
I gladly maintain that the Hawkeye series by Matt Fraction and David Aja is the comic book of the decade. It’s groundbreaking in its portrayal of ‘people first, superheroes second’. So why not celebrate with this awesome fan film based on the comic?
The fine folks at One Riot One Ranger Productions really name the look, feel and comedic elements of Hawkeye. I raise my bow and arrow to them!

Hench-Sized Comic Book Reviews – 3/26/16
So what did everybody think of Batman v. Superman: Dawn of Justice? Is the DC Cinematic Universe off to a good start? I will be seeing the movie tonight, and my review will go up early next week. I’m a little worried, since I didn’t care for Man of Steel. But I’m going to keep an open mind.
Fortunately, comics were a blast this week! We’ve got new Patsy Walker, which is always a cause for celebration. As would be the new issue of Grayson, but unfortunately, something has gone horribly wrong! Read on to find out what.
Comic Book of the Week goes to Batman #50, the big climax of Scott Snyder and Greg Capullo’s time on the title! The energy and excitement of this issue easily cast aside my various minor hang-ups with Snyder’s Batman. This is a solid, exciting issue.
Batman is a fashion maven
Speaking of solid, exciting issues, my new Kickstarter is only one week away! Next Saturday we will launch the next fundraising campaign for Gamer Girl & Vixen! I hope I can count on you henchies to lend your support and order my comic!
And if you haven’t had a chance yet, you can read the entire first issue for free! You’re welcome to take my word for it that it’s good, but you can also see for yourself.
Comic Reviews: Batman #50, Grayson #18, Harley Quinn #26, Patsy Walker a.k.a. Hellcat #4, Totally Awesome Hulk #4 and We Are Robin #10.
