Hench-Sized Comic Book Reviews – 11/25/23

Happy Thanksgiving, everyone! I had a relatively fine visit home with the family, and a big, fun pile of comics to read and enjoy! This is one of those weeks where a lot of my favorites have come out, like Nightwing, Superman and Power Rangers.

Comic Book of the Week goes to Wonder Woman #3 for another stellar, super enjoyable issue of Wonder Woman being awesome!

Hello there

Meanwhile, I splurged on Star Wars Jedi: Survivor this past week because it was on sale and I’m enjoying it well enough. I haven’t really given myself time to dive in deep, but I’m sure I will this weekend. I’m also, hopefully, going to read Do a Powerbomb by Daniel Warren Johnson! I’m excited for that. I should mention more graphic novels I’m reading on the side. Like, I read Eight Billion Genies and it was really good. So go me!

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.

Well, you earned it anyway

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.

Hench-Sized Comic Book Reviews – 9/30/23

Another week is upon us, and it’s another week of reading comics! Good for us. Some pretty solid comics too, like new Power Rangers and new Avengers.

Comic Book of the Week goes to Void Rivals #4 for another solid, entertaining chapter in this ongoing tale. It’s all pretty simple, but it’s effectively simple.

Don’t look at me like that

Meanwhile, I finally beat Baldur’s Gate 3! I beat both a co-op campaign with a friend, and my solo campaign where I was able to do more. And it’s come to a fitting conclusion, and I’ve moved right on to the new Cyberpunk 2077 upgrades and DLC. I had a great time last time I played the game at launch, so here’s hoping for another good time now.

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.

Yale on a tail

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 – 7/29/23

It’s a big week in comics this week with a new Hellfire Gala that changes the face of the X-Men once again! I’ll probably be checking out a lot of the new X-books this fall, so hopefully they’re good.

Comic Book of the Week goes to Mighty Morphin Power Rangers #110 for an issue where the bad guys win that doesn’t leave me in a bad mood, unlike another certain issue this week.

Sometimes morphin looks weird

Meanwhile, I finished both Tears of the Kingdom and Diablo 4 in the same weekend, so now i’m currently sans video game. I should probably get back into reading! I have a huge pile of comic book tpbs that I just keep buying for the fun of buying, but have yet to start reading. Gotta fix that.

Comic Reviews: Avengers #3, Hellfire Gala #1, Mighty Morphin Power Rangers #110 and She-Hulk #15.
