Hench-Sized Comic Book Reviews – 11/22/25

Here we are, another week, another batch of comics. And they’re mostly good! There’s no point in even hiding the fact that we get the second Batman/Deadpool crossover this week!

Comic Book of the Week goes to Batman/Deadpool #1 because it more than lives up to the excitement.

Meanwhile, I beat both Ghost of Yotei and Dispatch, both of which were super fun games. Glad to have played them both.

And I’m considering when to go see the second Wicked movie…

They’re raising bonus money now to try to fund some additional chapters of the story to go out to everybody. Check out their Kickstarter!

Comic Reviews: Batman/Deadpool #1, Captain America #5, Power Rangers Prime #12 and Wonder Woman #27.

Only one shall stand

But just like we’ve got both Green Arrow and Hawkeye and both Superman and the Sentry, sometimes ideas and characters get copied across publishers. The same is true for superhero teams. Marvel has the Avengers, DC has the Justice League…but who does everybody else have?

Just for the fun of it, and because I love comics, I decided to look around and pick out the best Avengers/JLA analogues!
