Hench-Sized Comic Book Reviews – 4/19/26
Comics! You love’em. I love’em. What’s not to love? Especially when we’ve got some solid bangers like Wonder Woman and Batwoman to celebrate this week.
Comic Book of the Week goes to Absolute Batman #19 for a pretty much perfect comic, kicking off the big new storyline with style and pizzazz.
Meanwhile, the Museum of the Uncanny Kickstarter campaign is in its final week! They’ve got a ways to go to hit their goal, but I know they can do it and I know you lovely readers will check out the campaign and give some support to some indie comic creators! That’s what we’re all about!
Double meanwhile, I splurged and bought myself Crimson Desert and I’m definitely enjoying the game. I still feel like I’m taking it slow, considering everything I’m seeing online. But it’s a fun action RPG with a big open world to explore! Beyond that, I’m enjoying Daredevil: Born Again, enjoying Maul: Shadow Lord and the season 3 finale of Shrinking was wonderful.
Comic Reviews: Absolute Batman #19, Batwoman #2 and Wonder Woman #32.

Hench-Sized Comic Book Reviews – 3/21/26
Well well well, what have we here? Another batch of comics to review and another bunch of random people from the internet to read them? How delightful. Especially when we’ve got stuff like Wonder Woman and X-Men!
Comic Book of the Week goes to Batwoman #1 for a solid start to a new era at DC Comics. I’m looking forward to a lot of these creator-driven comics.
Meanwhile, not much going on in my life. I’m taking a break from video games for a while, though I’m keeping my eye on Crimson Desert. I just watched and enjoyed the second season of Ted and I’m gonna go see Project: Hail Mary at the movie theater this weekend. So I’ve got that going for me, which is nice.
Comic Reviews: Batwoman #1, Wonder Woman #31, X-Men #27, Captain America #8 and Cyclops #2.

By this time next week, I will be on the road for the family Christmas getaway! Should be a blast! But until then, we’ve got a few comics to read, though this was one of those very light weeks for me.
Comic Book of the Week goes to Outsiders #2 because it was marginally better than the only other comic I read this week. Also, this is a cool sea monster design.
Meanwhile, I finished off Star Wars Jedi: Survivor, which ended rather anticlimactically. I then splurged on Super Mario Wonder as my last video game purchase for a while (gotta save money). Haven’t played it yet, but I’m quite excited. I also watched Blue Eye Samurai on Netflix this past week and it was pretty amazing! So consider that a big recommendation.
Comic Reviews: Captain America #4 and Outsiders #2.

Hench-Sized Comic Book Reviews – 11/18/23
This was a real interesting week for comics. None of my regular titles came out, but there were several comics I had let fall by the wayside. So…I caught up and may return to reviewing the likes of Astonishing Iceman!
Comic Book of the Week goes to Fantastic Four #13 for an excellent dinosaur adventure.
Meanwhile, I’m spending this weekend resisting the urge to buy Super Mario Bros. Wonder. I beat Spider-Man 2 and need a new game to play, but I also have other options besides spending $60 for that sweet new Mario game. It sure would be fun to play, though…
Comic Reviews: Astonishing Iceman #4, Fantastic Four #13 and Outsiders #1.

We live in a golden age of live action superhero costumes! Gone are the days of moody black leather. Now superheroes on both the big and small screens get to dress in comics-accurate attire! And it looks great!
Yesterday saw the first official images of the new Batwoman and Red Hood costumes from the second season of the Batwoman TV show and the third season of the Titans TV show respectively.
Here is Javicia Leslie in costume as Ryan Wilder, the new Batwoman.
The Ryan Wilder character recently made her first appearance in the comics. Maybe she’ll become the new Batwoman in comics as well? Time will tell! I think she looks great!
Next up is actor Curran Walters as the Red Hood!
Walters played Jason Todd as Robin in the first two seasons of Titans. I haven’t seen the second season yet, so I don’t know what happened to him. But apparently it was enough for him to go full Red Hood for season 3! I need to start watching that show again. And I never did watch Batwoman to begin with.
To think I live in a day and age where there are so many superhero TV shows that I actively don’t watch some of them! I should be so lucky!
