Hench-Sized Comic Book Reviews – 6/7/25
Summer is upon us and the heat is turning up. I’ve got my air conditioner fully installed and it’s still going strong after nearly 20 years keeping me cool. This thing is a beast! And it keeps me cool to read more comics, like Imperial and Power Rangers Prime!
Comic Book of the Week goes to Absolute Superman #8 because greatness is as greatness does, people. It’s not my fault this comic is so damn good with every single issue!
Meanwhile, I’m still in the pre-endgame of Clair Obscur: Expedition 33. I tend to only play video games on the weekends these days, which is a good way to stretch out games. Death Stranding 2 doesn’t come out until the end of the month, after all. Beyond that, I watched and didn’t care for The Better Sister, and I’ll hopefully spend this weekend watching that new Predator anime and the new Wes Anderson film in theaters!
Comic Reviews: Absolute Green Lantern #3, Absolute Superman #8, Imperial #1 and Power Rangers Prime #7.

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.

Hench-Sized Comic Book Reviews – 1/25/25
This was one of those weeks where every single comic I’m reading comes out at the same time. And there are some I’m way behind on, like Scarlet Witch and Fantastic Four, that I really need to dig into and get caught up. But until then, we’ve got some excellent books, including Superman and Wonder Woman!
Comic Book of the Week goes to Absolute Wonder Woman #4 for a perfectly crafted chapter in this already exciting series.
Meanwhile, I’m starting to wind down on Stardew Valley and pick back up Dragon Age: The Veilguard, so that’s exciting. I’m enjoying the new season of Severance, but didn’t really care for the second season of The Silo. I’m also reading Beneath the Trees Where Nobody Sees, finally, and it’s as good as everyone says.
Comic Reviews: Absolute Wonder Woman #4, Power Rangers Prime #3 Superman #22, Ultimate Spider-Man #13, Uncanny X-Men #9 and Wonder Woman #17.

Hench-Sized Comic Book Reviews – 12/21/24
Happy Holidays, everyone! For some stupid reason, Christmas is on a Wednesday this year, right in the middle of the work week. I’ve got to go back to work the day after Christmas! Anyway, before that happens, we get to read some new comics like Absolute Batman and G.I.Joe.
Comic Book of the Week goes to another stellar issue of Wonder Woman, this time with a big Detective Chimp cameo to drive it all forward.
Meanwhile, my decision to wait on Dragon Age: The Veilguard paid off because it was on sale this week for 40% off! So I snatched it up and am giving that a try. I’m very much enjoying both Skeleton Crew and Creature Commandos, so I’ve got plenty to watch and enjoy. And this Wednesday I’ll be heading home for Christmas with the family! Everything is humming along nicely.
Also, if I haven’t mentioned yet, Gamer Girl & Vixen Vol. 2: Tyrant Lizard Queen is finished and heading to the printers! So anyone who backed our Kickstarter or would like to read my comics, stay tuned for more info on getting a copy of my comic!
Comic Reviews: Absolute Batman #3, G.I.Joe #2, Power Rangers Prime #2 and Wonder Woman #16.

Hench-Sized Comic Book Reviews – 11/16/24
It was another big week for comics this week! We get out first taste at a second issue of one of the new Absolute comics, and there were a pair of big first issues, like the much-anticipated G.I. Joe from the Energon Universe.
Comic Book of the Week goes to Power Rangers Prime #1 for the better of the two launch issues, at least in my opinion.
Meanwhile, life continues as well as can be expected. The Penguin finale was great. Star Trek: Lower Decks is halfway through its final season. Arcane’s second chapter comes out today, so I’m excited about that. And I’m in the process of wrapping up two Baldur’s Gate 3 campaigns. I’m thinking of switching to Dragon Age: The Veilguard next.
Comic Reviews: Absolute Batman #2, G.I. Joe #1 and Power Rangers Prime #1.
