Hench-Sized Comic Book Reviews – 11/30/24
Happy American Thanksgiving, everyone! I had a lovely holiday with family, and then squeezed in a bunch of comics this week. Stuff like Absolute Wonder Woman and Mystique, even!
Comic Book of the Week goes to the first issue of Justice League Unlimited because I would say it lives up to the hype and excitement of what this comic could be.
Meanwhile, I’m on vacation for the week ahead and am loading up on video games to play. I’ve got another Baldur’s Gate 3 playthrough in me. I’m finally gonna try Hades because it’s on sale. And the Sniper Elite 5 DLC I’d been waiting to go on sale is now on sale, so that too! All of this is to say I’ve convinced myself not to buy Dragon Age: The Veilguard at full price, which is what I had been planning.
Also, this is gonna sound weird…but both Marvel and DC have comics that feature a character named Tuatara this week. When I saw the names, I wasn’t sure what I was reading, but I Googled and both characters have existed in past comics. So they aren’t brand new. It’s just that…two very different writers on two very different comics for two different companies…both decided to use their company’s Tuatara for a brief cameo appearance in comics that came out on the same week?!
Also, a Tuatara is a lizard from New Zealand, if you didn’t know, which I didn’t.
Comic Reviews: Absolute Wonder Woman #2, Iron Man #2, Justice League Unlimited #1 and Mystique #2.

Last time I only reviewed X-Men comics, so this time i’m only reviewing DC Comics. It’s a big month for DC, as they kick off their new All In initiative. And I’m getting on the ground floor with the new one-shot special!
Comic Book of the Week goes to Batman #153 for a truly excellent start to the new storyline, starting with a pretty nice clean slate.
Meanwhile, I’m loving The Penguin, enjoying Agatha All Along and have stalled a bit playing Star Wars Outlaws. I’m at just about the end game, but got distracted with some other games on the side that do stealth much better. Heh. Perhaps I’ll finish the game off for good this weekend, but then I won’t have another game to play until next year! I’ll need to find something on sale somewhere…
Comic Reviews: Batman #153, DC All In Special #1 and Plastic Man No More: Book Two.
