Hench-Sized Comic Book Reviews – 5/31/25
I had another busy week this week, but found time to sit and read a bunch of comics. I also found the time to catch up on some of my favorite current comics, so that was nice. And like we’ve seen a lot recently, it’s a bunch of bangers, like Superman and Ultimate Spider-Man.
Comic Book of the Week goes to Absolute Martian Manhunter because I am now on board for the weirdness, especially now that the story is developing.
Meanwhile, I continue to enjoy and take my time with Clair Obscur: Expedition 33. If you’re on the fence about this one, I can promise you that it’s definitely like a classic Final Fantasy game, like the glory days of 7, 8, 9 and 10. So it’s good. I also just finished the TV Show The Studio this week with Seth Rogen on AppleTV+ and it was good! Definitely lives up to the hype it has received.
Also, it is with a heavy heart I announce the end of my half-hearted, blog-based campaign to get a comic book company to hire me to write a Street Sharks comic. Bleeding Cool says IDW has one in the works already. I truly put it no effort, but it woulda been neat. In the end, it’s my own fault for not becoming a successful enough comic book writer to make my mark in the age of 80s/90s cartoon adaptations.

Hench-Sized Comic Book Reviews – 4/26/25
Another week has come and gone and another batch of comics is upon us. A ton of books I’m reading came out this week, and somehow I found the time to review a whole bunch of them, including Absolute Martian Manhunter, Batman: Hush 2 and Amazing Spider-Man.
Comic Book of the Week goes to Absolute Wonder Woman, which shouldn’t be a surprise, because few things can touch this comic other than the regular Wonder Woman book and the other main Absolutes.
Meanwhile, I finished The Pitt last night and it definitely lived up to all the hype its been getting! Excellent medical drama. And I’m winding down on Kingdom Come: Deliverance II and am in need of another game. Possibly that Elder Scrolls: Oblivion remaster…
Double meanwhile, the Kickstarter campaign remains ongoing for The Museum of the Uncanny anthology! I’ve got a short comic story in the book and we’re doing well as we head into the final weeks of the campaign! Force me to put my money where my mouth is! I spend all this time reviewing comics, come and read one I’ve written myself!
Comic Reviews: Absolute Martian Manhunter #2, Absolute Wonder Woman #7, Amazing Spider-Man #2, Batman #159, G.I. Joe #6 and X-Men #15.

Hench-Sized Comic Book Reviews – 3/29/25
I’ve been noticing something weird lately…I don’t really care for Marvel Comics at the moment. All the best comics are coming out of DC. Wild. Anyway, here’s a review list that’s mostly DC Comics!
Comic Book of the Week goes to Wonder Woman #19 for an excellent end to the first story arc, and all the teases for the next story arc. I’m quite satisfied.
Meanwhile, I’m still working my way through Kingdom Come: Deliverance II. The game is everything I hoped it would be and I’m having a blast! Gonna spend a lot of time in this world. I’m currently working my way through the newest season of Invincible. Fun stuff, as expected.
Comic Reviews: Absolute Martian Manhunter #1, Absolute Wonder Woman #6, Batman #158, Power Rangers Prime #5 and Wonder Woman #19.
