Hench-Sized Comic Book Reviews – 9/14/24

It’s another lazy week for me and comic book reviews. Just a pair of comics to check out, both of them more than good and both showing off a lot of potential. So that’s fun!

Comic Book of the Week goes to Uncanny X-Men #2 because I liked it just a little bit more than Avengers Assemble #1.

Everybody meet some of the new mutants!

Meanwhile, i’m still enjoying Star Wars: Outlaws. It’s a fun game. A solid 7/10 from me. It’s not as polished or as deep as I would love, but I’m enjoying the surface level open world and mission structure. The perfect sort of game to just play and enjoy to kill the time I dedicate to video games each week.

Hench-Sized Comic Book Reviews – 9/7/24

Let me tell you, folks, you’ve never met a lazier blogger than I. I’ve been off from work this whole week for my birthday, so I had all week to read comics and do reviews and post stuff. But ultimately, I’m late with this post and have only reviewed two comics this week…but they’re two new ones and good ones.

Comic Book of the Week goes to Plastic Man No More: Book One for its creative art style and solid introductory story.

Yeah, it’s pretty funny, too

Meanwhile, my week off has mostly been spent in glorious isolation. I’m trying to save up money to buy a new car, so I wasn’t about to go on any grand trips. I splurged on Star Wars: Outlaws for my birthday and it’s been fun! I’m enjoying myself with Outlaws, though it could be a lot more polished in my opinion. Other than that, I’m reading some graphic novels I had saved up and taking frequent naps. Watched Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire finally and did not care for it.

Comic Reviews: Exceptional X-Men #1 and Plastic Man No More: Book One.

Hench-Sized Comic Book Reviews – 8/17/24

This is quite the week for comics! Some new weirdness, some ongoing X-Men awesomeness, and the end of Rainbow Rowell’s She-Hulk. There were even more comics, but I settled on these couple.

Comic Book of the Week goes to X-Factor #1 for an excellent, if repetitive, start.

Mark Russell has got this

Meanwhile, it’s the last week to pledge for the new issue of The Cloak Room on Kickstarter, so it would be awesome if you readers would support that series. I had a short story featured in the first issue! Beyond that, I got caught up on The Boys, and it was a fun season. Beyond that, I’m kind of just waiting for Star Wars: Outlaws to drop before I have anything really exciting going on in my pop culture life.

Comic Reviews: Biker Mice From Mars #1, Sensational She-Hulk #10, X-Factor #1 and X-Men #2.

Hench-Sized Comic Book Reviews – 8/10/24

There’s only going to be one review this week, I’m afraid. I still read a bunch of comics, but I don’t really want to do a write up for just any comic, especially if its just humming along nicely like, say, Scarlett. But I definitely wanted to get my thoughts down about Gail Simone’s Uncanny X-Men #1!

Comic Book of the Week goes to Uncanny X-Men #1 because it lives up to the hype and excitement.

“Ground Bear” is the perfect Rogue to Wolverine nickname

Meanwhile, I’m spending the month busying myself with nonsense games as I await Star Wars: Outlaws at the end of the month. I hope that game is going to be fun. I spent money on the latest IDW hardcover Ninja Turtles collection, which means I now own 16 of these things without having read a single one. I have a problem. And the Kickstarter remains ongoing for the second issue of The Cloakroom! Check it out!

Live Action Animated Wolverine!

Tell It Animated is back with Wolverine! Deadpool & Wolverine is still making box office money, so this still fits! And it’s a fun little video, tracing all the live action Wolverine costumes through the movies. Shame he couldn’t include the animated Wolverines as well.

Wolverine’s black leather outfits weren’t so bad. I like the gold lining they had, and the stripes here and there. And the new yellow outfit totally works. Has anyone photoshopped what the new movie outfit would look like if he kept the shoulder pads while going sleeveless? I’m sure they thought about it while making the movie and it looked dumb, but I’d still enjoy.

Anyway, as always, should he ever read these posts, my suggestion for a new one is Robin! Not that there’s any Robin content coming out anytime soon…
