6 Things I Want to See in Avengers: Doomsday
We’ve got two new Avengers movies coming up starting late next year, so we’re a ways off. But I was giving Doomsday some thought the other day and realized I’d never done a List of Six on what I hope to see in the movie. I used to do these a lot for Marvel films. So here we are for my own personal hopes and dreams for Avengers: Doomsday in late 2026.
I’m still a major Marvel fan. Say what you will about me, but I’m still loving pretty much everything Marvel is putting out. I cannot fathom how anyone can say the Marvel products are “garbage”. They’re maybe not all amazing and phenomenal, but the films and TV shows are still well-made and very entertaining. I can’t wait to rewatch Thunderbolts* when it comes to Disney+, and Fantastic Four: First Steps is expected to be a highlight of the rest of my year.
So can Marvel make themselves a billion dollar movie-maker again with Doomsday and then Secret Wars? I’m more than willing to find out!

Hench-Sized Comic Book Reviews – 8/17/24
This is quite the week for comics! Some new weirdness, some ongoing X-Men awesomeness, and the end of Rainbow Rowell’s She-Hulk. There were even more comics, but I settled on these couple.
Comic Book of the Week goes to X-Factor #1 for an excellent, if repetitive, start.
Meanwhile, it’s the last week to pledge for the new issue of The Cloak Room on Kickstarter, so it would be awesome if you readers would support that series. I had a short story featured in the first issue! Beyond that, I got caught up on The Boys, and it was a fun season. Beyond that, I’m kind of just waiting for Star Wars: Outlaws to drop before I have anything really exciting going on in my pop culture life.
Comic Reviews: Biker Mice From Mars #1, Sensational She-Hulk #10, X-Factor #1 and X-Men #2.

Hench-Sized Comic Book Reviews – 4/6/24
It’s April already. Life moves forward unceasingly. We are merely caught up in its wake. But at least we can always count on new comics, like Batman and She-Hulk!
Comic Book of the Week goes to Birds of Prey #8 for another delightful team book issue.
Meanwhile, I’ve started playing Evil Genius 2 on the PC, a charming base-builder. It’s got a fun aesthetic, and I do love a good real time strategy-style game like this. Easy to get addicted to as I play along and balance all the things to balance. I’m having fun. And on Monday, I will be in the totality zone of this solar eclipse! So that should be fun!
Comic Reviews: Batman #146, Birds of Prey #8, Sensational She-Hulk #7 and Void Rivals #8.

Hench-Sized Comic Book Reviews – 2/10/24
It’s Super Bowl Weekend! And I’m probably instead going to go see the movie American Fiction in an empty theater. It’s supposed to be pretty good. I also had a fun time reading comics this week, like the new Ultimate Black Panther and the new ThunderCats!
Comic Book of the Week goes to Sensational She-Hulk #5 for another very fun, character-based issue. I love what I love, and sometimes She-Hulk really delivers.
Meanwhile, still playing Super Mario Bros. Wonder, still having a ball. It’s a fun, simple game, which is what a traditional Mario game should be. I spent the past week watching all three seasons of Slow Horses on AppleTV+, and that show was good, solid entertainment. I hope Gary Oldman was having fun.
Also, if you haven’t seen yet, the latest volume of my self-published comic — Gamer Girl & Vixen — is coming to Kickstarter on Monday! I would love your support and I’ve no doubt you’ll love my comic!
Comic Reviews: Birds of Prey #6, Captain America #6, Sensational She-Hulk #5, ThunderCats #1 and Ultimate Black Panther #1.

Hench-Sized Comic Book Reviews – 1/13/24
Another week, more comics, the world keeps spinning around and around. Some pretty good and enjoyable comics this week, like Transformers and the first issue of the hotly anticipated Ultimate Spider-Man #1.
Comic Book of the Week is Sensational She-Hulk for an excellent issue of superheroes being normal people, which I love.
Meanwhile, I watched Echo this past week and I enjoyed it. Definitely nothing special or outstanding, but it’s a solid corner of the MCU that could be further explored in the future. I wouldn’t mind seeing her interact with other heroes and actually play a role. Beyond that, my interest in Project Zomboid is definitely beginning to wane after a few unfortunate deaths. I just wanna play the game and not have to keep restarting! Stupid zombies.
Comic Reviews: Sensational She-Hulk #4, Transformers #4 and Ultimate Spider-Man #1.
