Gamer Girl & Vixen: The Final Countdown!
We are less than a week away from the Kickstarter launch of Gamer Girl & Vixen! I’ve been building to this moment for months now, getting all of the finishing touches in place and doing all of the research under the sun on running a successful campaign. It all starts with you wonderful henchies and the support you’ve shown so far. I haven’t been this excited since we were days away from Age of Ultron coming out – which, I’ll admit, was only a couple weeks ago.
Still, everything is on track for an awesome launch weekend. We’ve got tons of rewards to give away, tons of art to show off, and hopefully we’ll really spread the word around the Interwebs.
If you’re unfamiliar with how to use Kickstarter (I know I was), I’ve put together this handy dandy FAQ to help out. It’s as simple as ordering something from Amazon or any other website.
And to keep the excitement building, here’s a tease for the final cover of issue #1! It’s gorgeous, and I can’t wait to reveal the whole thing this weekend!
But mostly, I just wanted to post this music video!

Everybody is a Little Bit Worthy
For some reason, this lousy cold just won’t let go of me! Every day has just been a little bit stuffy, a little bit headachey, but I think today I’m going to see the end of it. So while I head out to the store to buy some decongestants, you guys can watch this funny Avengers video from Dorkly.
Good stuff, Dorkly. Now cure me of the common cold!

Hench-Sized Comic Book Reviews – 5/9/15
Oy, I’m sick. I don’t know if it’s Spring Fever or Just a Fever or what, but I’ve come down with that cough and uggish feeling that’s going around. It’s definitely not dance fever, that’s for darn sure. Fortunately, I had a big stack of my favorite comics to keep me company this week.
We got new issues of Unbeatable Squirrel Girl, Ant-Man and Amazing Spider-Man, as well as the only Convergence title I’m reading: The Question. Not surprisingly, seeing Greg Rucka and Cully Hamner reunite for a Renee Montoya comic wins Comic Book of the Week. I need this comic in my life on a full-time basis.
Like they need another smash in the head
If nothing else, Convergence at least allowed Rucka to return to one of his best characters, so I guess I’m grateful for that. The rest of the series blows, from what I’m reading around the web.
Speaking of the web, you can check out my review of Secret Wars #1 over at Word of the Nerd this week. I’d planned to add it to this article as well, but that sickness hit me like a ton of bricks. Sometimes the world just doesn’t want you to write about comic books.
Comic Reviews: Amazing Spider-Man #18, Ant-Man #5, Convergence: The Question #2, Spider-Woman #7 and Unbeatable Squirrel Girl #5.
A Hench-Sized Ranking of the Marvel Cinematic Universe
With the whole world enjoying Avengers: Age of Ultron, I saw a lot of lists on the Internet ranking the best and worst of the Marvel movies. I will gladly go on record claiming that there isn’t a bad movie in the bunch. They’ve all been good to great so far, and I fully expect that trend to continue later this summer with Ant-Man.
Being a blogger of the people, and a self-proclaimed Marvel fan, I’ve decided to rank all of the Marvel movies from my most to least favorite. I love them all and, were I a healthier man, I would gladly have attended one of those massive, multi-hour marathons that were playing in major cities. But alas, I live in a dinky little city that doesn’t get that kind of awesome attention. I need to move somewhere cool…
Also, this seems like a great time to share the first official synopsis of Captain America: Civil War. It seems Cap’s new team of Avengers are going to fill the New Warriors’ role from the original comic, and the movie will feature a metric ton of characters, including War Machine, Vision, Ant-Man and General Ross from The Incredible Hulk! They’re really getting William Hurt to return! That’s amazing connectivity!
So join me after the jump for my personal ranking of all the Marvel movies! And feel free to share your own in the comments below!
A Sweet, Sweet New Ant-Man Poster
With Avengers: Age of Ultron sitting all bubbly in our brainpans now, we turn our attention to the next Marvel blockbuster, Ant-Man, which is due to hit theaters on July 17. I’ve loved both trailers and I’m confident that this movie is going to rock! In fact, to confirm my suspicions, Marvel put out a new Ant-Man poster yesterday!
Let’s hope this signifies the start of around the clock Ant-Man advertising! I still want my Ant-Man LEGOs and Ant-Man Marvel Legends action figure!
I also don’t think I’ve said ‘Ant-Man’ enough yet in this post. Ant-Man!
Also, tune into my blog tomorrow when I will rank all of the Marvel movies from least favorite to most favorite!
