Hench-Sized Comic Book Reviews – 10/28/23
Happy Halloween, everyone! We’re only a few days away from that glorious of all holidays! Too bad I didn’t read any spooky comics, and instead have some new issues of Captain America and Void Rivals.
Comic Book of the Week goes to Wonder Woman #2 for another strongly written, fairly badass comic book.
Meanwhile, I’m still working my way through Spider-Man 2, taking my time to enjoy as much of the game as I can and loving every minute of it. A lot has been spoiled for me because the internet is a terrible place, but I’ll survive and there will hopefully be a few surprises still to come.
Comic Reviews: Captain America #2, Mighty Morphin Power Rangers #113, Void Rivals #5 and Wonder Woman #2.

Hench-Sized Comic Book Reviews – 9/23/23
What an interesting week for comics! We’ve got a couple of new #1 relaunches, and DC Comics comes back after an event that stymied their titles for two months. Lot of great reads this week, including Nightwing, Captain America and Superman!
Comic Book of the Week goes to Wonder Woman #1 for a very strong, very powerful first issue that absolutely nails the tone its going for right off the bat.
Meanwhile, my time with Baldur’s Gate is winding down. I beat the game with a co-op friend finally, and now I’m just going to go through the motions to finish off some solo games, or put them on hold to wait for some game fixes. We’re a month away from the new Spider-Man 2 game, so I’ve got to get ready for that.
Comic Reviews: Captain America #1, Nightwing #106, Superman #6, Titans #3 and Wonder Woman #1.

Hench-Sized Comic Book Reviews – 8/26/23
Some weeks you just don’t want to read comics. Sometimes a bunch of new comics come out, but you can’t work up the energy to read any of them, especially not when immersed in some Baldur’s Gate 3. But I for sure checked out the Captain America Finale, for one.
Comic Book of the Week goes to Mighty Morphin Power Rangers #111 because the new storyline kicks off in dramatic, exciting fashion.
Meanwhile, I am definitely still playing Baldur’s Gate 3, though the bugs are starting to get to me. Some are directly impacting one of my playthroughs, and the internet tells me it gets a bit buggier towards the end. I’m starting to wonder if I should just stop playing and wait another year for the Definitive Edition that’s likely to come out. At least I can watch and enjoy the new Ahsoka show! Which reminds me, I have yet to play that new Jedi game that came out in the spring…

Hench-Sized Comic Book Reviews – 6/3/23
Wowzers, who could have seen this coming? I barely had a single comic to read and review this week. Maybe because Wednesday fell on the 31st? Either way, there’s only one, and it’s Captain America. Mostly because I’m not about to pay any attention to what’s happening in Amazing Spider-Man anymore.
Comic Book of the Week goes to Captain America: Symbol of Truth #13 because it’s the only comic I read this week, and it’s fine. I had a busy week.
Meanwhile, what do you want from me? I’m gonna be playing The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom for a very long time, and I’m still very much in that. Haven’t beaten the game, probably not even close. I’m just doing a lot of wandering, checking out some YouTube videos for new things to build. It’s all just great. Though I did manage to find time to watch Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse and it was amazing! Tune in on Wednesday for my thoughts/review.

Hench-Sized Comic Book Reviews – 4/29/23
I’m back. I’m still reading comics and still writing reviews for them. Sometimes we get a week like last week, where all my favorites come out. And sometimes we get a week like this one, where some of my side comics are piled up. We’ve got a brand new relaunch for Green Arrow, which I decided to check out, along with more Captain American and Iron Man. I even went back to Tim Drake: Robin to check in and see how things are going.
Comic Book of the Week goes to Wasp #4 for an excellent wrap up to a wonderful little series. This comic has it all, and should be a big hit with Wasp fans. Characters are treated well, the ending ties everything together nicely and it’s all quite pleasant.
Meanwhile, I did not buy Star Wars Jedi: Survivor this weekend because I’m saving my money for Legend of Zelda in a couple of weeks. So I’m missing out on that game. But I did get the new DLC for Horizon: Forbidden West, so at least that’s something. I beat Gotham Knights and put it down, content that I had experienced everything I needed to experience with that game. I fully understand why it crashed and burned, which is a darn shame.
Comic Reviews: Captain America: Symbol of Truth #12, Green Arrow #1, Invincible Iron Man #5, Strange Academy: Finals #6, Tim Drake: Robin #8 and Wasp #4.
