Hench-Sized Comic Book Reviews – 12/2/23
It’s a quite week for comics, with only a pair of reviews I’m afraid. Works just fine for me! I’ve got a bunch of other stuff of my own brewing, and I can’t wait to share with all you loyal readers.
Comic Book of the Week goes to X-Men Blue: Origins #1 because I fully support this retcon and I simply didn’t read much else. I should have got caught back up on other comics, but nah.
Meanwhile, I’m still meandering my way through Star Wars Jedi: Survivor, except I’m more interested in collecting all the lightsaber and clothing hidden treasures than I am in the story, so the game is just me reading online guides so that I don’t miss any hidden boxes. Oh well.

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.

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.

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…

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.
