Hench-Sized Comic Book Reviews – 10/17/26
Very good week for comics this week! Nothing Absolute or Midnight for me to check in on, so instead it’s just a bunch of very enjoyable normal superhero comics, like Amazing Spider-Man and a new Venom relaunch!
Comic Book of the Week goes to Legion of Super-Heroes #2 for another very fun adventure that throws us right into the deep end of this new Legion relaunch.
Meanwhile, it’s the final week for my comic book Kickstarter! Cover Bard #1 hit its funding goal on Friday to get printed copies, then everybody can read a comic I wrote myself! Help me prove to the world that I can put my money where my mouth is, and write comics as well as review them. Check out the campaign page or check out this look at the issue to get an idea where it’s for you.
Also, I didn’t really care for the Street Fighter movie, despite being so hyped for it all year. Just kind of a mess of a movie.
Comic Reviews: Amazing Spider-Man #1001, Legion of Super-Heroes #2, Venom #1 and Iron Man #10.

Hench-Sized Comic Book Reviews – 10/3/26
Buy my book! Buy my book! Nothing like a good reference to the 30-year-old TV show The Critic to kick off a bout of comic book reviews, eh? But seriously, go check out the Kickstarter for my new comic, Cover Bard #1! We’re almost at our goal and you could be the awesome person that gets us over the top! Imagine how much fun that will feel?
Comic Book of the Week goes to Amazing Spider-Man #1,000 for hitting such a nice milestone, and for also being a swell comic.
Meanwhile, I’m going to wrap up the Wolverine game this weekend. Solid play. I may or may not do a review. I’ll definitely have a review up next week on my thoughts on the first season of Lanterns! Loving the show! Can’t wait for the finale! Beyond that, I’m watching the latest season of Star Trek: Strange New Worlds and reading Harley & Ivy: Life & Crimes by Erica Henderson. Both quite fun so far. I love Henderson’s artwork.
Comic Reviews: Amazing Spider-Man #1000, Bizarro: Year None #3 and Uncanny X-Men #36.

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.
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.
Comic Reviews: Absolute Catwoman #3, Absolute Wonder Woman #23, Amazing Spider-Man #999, Mighty Morphin Power Rangers #3 and Next Level – One Shot #1.

Hench-Sized Comic Book Reviews – 7/25/26
Welcome back to another week of comics! I keep realizing that there are a bunch of comics that I enjoyed at one point that I lost track of for one reason or another. I had planned to get caught back up with Void Rivals this week…but it didn’t happen. My bad. Good thing I’m still all-in on the Absolute comics! Or most of them.
Comic Book of the Week goes to Absolute Superman #21 for a truly spectacular bout of fisticuffs!
Meanwhile, I went and saw The Odyssey earlier this week and loved it! Such a big, bold, awesome and beautiful movie. I wasn’t as captivated the whole way through like I was with Oppenheimer, but it definitely came together in a very strong and emotional third act. Beyond that, I’m finally winding down on Crimson Desert. Great game. I’m currently finishing up the second season of Monarch, which is fine. And I’m all caught up on Frieren: Beyond Journey’s End.
Comic Reviews: Absolute Superman #21, Absolute Wonder Woman #22 and Amazing Spider-Man #33.

Hench-Sized Comic Book Reviews – 6/20/26
Here we go again! More comics! More of our lives wasting away! Another Saturday has arrived and no, I’m not going to see Toy Story 5 in theaters. I just can’t bring myself to worry about that right now, not when I’ve got Amazing Spider-Man and Absolute Green Arrow!
Comic Book of the Week goes to Absolute Batman #21 because we finally get to see the Absolute Robins in action, and then the whole rest of the issue is neat as well.
Meanwhile, been a busy week for me, so I haven’t had much else going on. Still enjoying the heck out of Crimson Desert. Finally started the second season of The Pitt. And I’ve started reading the Dunk and Egg novellas from George R.R. Martin. Hopefully all these things remain fun and entertaining as they play out.
Comic Reviews: Absolute Batman #21, Absolute Green Arrow #2 and Amazing Spider-Man #31.
