Hench-Sized Comic Book Reviews – 9/26/26

My car is freaking out in all sorts of weird ways and I’m not sure what the heck is going on. All I did was change the battery in my key fob. I don’t need this stress! Thankfully, we’ve got new Absolute comics this week to enjoy!

Comic Book of the Week goes to Absolute Batman #24 because I liked its energy just a bit more than Absolute Wonder Woman. But how can we complain when we get both in a single week?

Good riddance, shoeless weirdo

Meanwhile, if you enjoy reading my comic book reviews, may I request you take a peek at my own comic book Kickstarter? I review comics every week, and sometimes I put my money where my mouth is and make my own comics! Cover Bard #1 has passed the 50% mark on Kickstarter so we’re looking pretty good if you’d like to snag your own copy to see if I have what it takes to actually write instead of just review comics. Much appreciated!

Hench-Sized Comic Book Reviews – 9/19/26

I was off from work this week and I spent the whole time on a nice staycation at home. Got some cleaning done. Read some comics. Played a lot of video games. And mostly just didn’t work. So it’s a good week for Wonder Woman and Absolute Green Arrow.

Comic Book of the Week goes to Daredevil #7 for a really fun, really energetic issue.

I’m going!

Meanwhile, I took this week off from work to play the new Wolverine video game and I’m very much enjoying it! Haters gonna hate and chase those hate algorithms, but this is a very enjoyable, straight forward Wolverine brawler game. So I’m quite pleased. I’m also working on a second playthrough of Star Wars: Zero Company, which remains fun. And I’m currently working my way through the fourth season of Reacher, which is also enjoyable. So good times for me!

Also, it’s time once again for me to put my money where my mouth is. I review comics week in and week out, and I’m once again making one of my own. Check out my profile on Cover Bard, my new first issue, which will be coming to Kickstarter on Monday! If you enjoy my reviews and want to see me put up or shut up on writing comics, this is a good opportunity and I would appreciate your support!

Hench-Sized Comic Book Reviews – 9/5/26

Welcome to my birthday weekend! I’ve no big plans. Maybe see my folks. Treat myself to some nice food. I’m gonna buy the Wolverine video game for myself in two weeks. And then I’ve got good comics, like Absolute Superman and Daredevil.

Comic Book of the Week goes to Legion of Super-Heroes #1 for an excellent relaunch of this classic comic.

You best believe I am all in on Matter-Eater-Lad Supremacy

Meanwhile, I’m greatly enjoying Star Wars: Zero Company. It’s X-Com by way of Star Wars, which is exactly what I wanted. I’m just worried it’s gonna be over too soon with no endless mode — but then I’ll replace it with Wolverine, so I’ll be fine. Beyond games, I finished up the third season of Silo and enjoyed it, and I’m also currently making my way through the newest season of King of the Hill. So I’m in a good place, media and pop culture wise.

Also, stay tuned for a big announcement on one of my own comic projects soon! It’s far past time I introduced my readers to Cover Bard!

Comic Reviews: Absolute Superman #23, Daredevil #6, The Deadman #4 and Legion of Super-Heroes #1.

Hench-Sized Comic Book Reviews – 8/29/26

This was both a weird and good week for me. I had some trouble sleeping, which sucked. But this was also the week of the Grand Theft Auto VI: Extended Look, and that can raise any week back up! As can good comics, like Amazing Spider-Man!

Comic Book of the Week goes to Absolute Wonder Woman #23 for a powerhouse performance by our beloved Amazon warrior woman.

She is so completely all out of bubblegum

Meanwhile, like I said, I had some fun this week. Grand Theft Auto VI looks amazing! Can’t wait! I also started up Star Wars: Zero Company last night and it’s fun so far! I’ve got a 3-day weekend and I’m going to enjoy the heck out of this new game. I also went and saw Coyote vs. Acme and it was a hoot and a half! Lovely, super fun film. Glad we all got the chance to see it.

Hench-Sized Comic Book Reviews – 8/22/26

This was one of those weird weeks where all the comics I read were a bunch of enjoyable, entertaining reads, but then none of them really stood out as particularly interesting or worth writing about. But I did it anyway! For comics like Absolute Green Arrow and Daredevil, even! But if my reviews seem a bit drab, that’s why.

Comic Book of the Week goes to Avengers: Armageddon #3 for a solid, energetic twist at the end.

Spidey loves arguing politics!

Meanwhile, I’m just killing time until I pick up Star Wars: Zero Company next week. That should be fun! I’m keeping an eye on all these Grand Theft Auto VI leaks but don’t really care about them. I looooved the first episode of Lanterns, and the only thing I don’t like is that I don’t have the entire season available to binge watch right away! Gonna have to be patient on that one. Next weekend is also Coyote vs. Acme, so that’s good too!

Comic Reviews: Absolute Green Arrow #4, Avengers: Armageddon #3, Daredevil #5 and Uncanny X-Men #34.
