Hench-Sized Comic Book Reviews – 8/10/24
There’s only going to be one review this week, I’m afraid. I still read a bunch of comics, but I don’t really want to do a write up for just any comic, especially if its just humming along nicely like, say, Scarlett. But I definitely wanted to get my thoughts down about Gail Simone’s Uncanny X-Men #1!
Comic Book of the Week goes to Uncanny X-Men #1 because it lives up to the hype and excitement.
Meanwhile, I’m spending the month busying myself with nonsense games as I await Star Wars: Outlaws at the end of the month. I hope that game is going to be fun. I spent money on the latest IDW hardcover Ninja Turtles collection, which means I now own 16 of these things without having read a single one. I have a problem. And the Kickstarter remains ongoing for the second issue of The Cloakroom! Check it out!
Comic Reviews: Uncanny X-Men #1.
Read the rest of this entryLive Action Animated Wolverine!
Tell It Animated is back with Wolverine! Deadpool & Wolverine is still making box office money, so this still fits! And it’s a fun little video, tracing all the live action Wolverine costumes through the movies. Shame he couldn’t include the animated Wolverines as well.
Wolverine’s black leather outfits weren’t so bad. I like the gold lining they had, and the stripes here and there. And the new yellow outfit totally works. Has anyone photoshopped what the new movie outfit would look like if he kept the shoulder pads while going sleeveless? I’m sure they thought about it while making the movie and it looked dumb, but I’d still enjoy.
Anyway, as always, should he ever read these posts, my suggestion for a new one is Robin! Not that there’s any Robin content coming out anytime soon…

New Deadpool & Wolverine Trailer Does Not Disappoint!
Deadpool & Wolverine is, probably, the most highly anticipated movie of the year. It’s the only Marvel Studios movie this year, and caps off the much beloved and praised Deadpool trilogy. It’s got everything going for it, and, thankfully, looks awesome to boot!
That was great! Still not much revealed in terms of story or what’s going on, but there’s so much beautiful Deadpool & Wolverine action and humor! Loved the melodic “Like a Prayer” soundtrack. Loved the humor. Loved seeing Wolverine in costume with his arms bare. Loved the MCU Easter Eggs. This thing looks awesome!
Deadpool & Wolverine comes to theaters on July 26!

6 Characters I Want to See in Deadpool & Wolverine
Deadpool & Wolverine is coming to theaters later this year, the only Marvel Cinematic Universe movie to come out in 2024. I’m very excited. The world is very excited. This movie promises to be the multiverse caper to end all multiverse capers! So I have some ideas I’d like to see.
We recently learned that actor Vinnie Jones turned down the offer to return as the Juggernaut from X-Men: The Last Stand. We already know there are some crazy cameos planned for this film, though I don’t want to spoil what I’ve heard in case you haven’t heard them too. But it got me thinking of cameos I’d like to see. I saw all of those X-Men movies and probably most other Marvel-adjacent films they might draw cameos from. So I’ve got together a list of all the cameos I’d like to see in Deadpool & Wolverine!
Join me after the jump for some hopeful surprises, and feel free to share your own cameo hopes and dreams in the comments below!
Read the rest of this entryDanny DeVito is Always a Gem, Especially as Wolverine
There is a really, really fun meme making its way around YouTube over the past few months, and that’s inserting Danny DeVito footage into other pop culture. Especially footage of DeVito as Frank Reynolds in It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia. Most recently, the Corridor Crew has inserted him into the X-Men films as Wolverine.
That’s funny stuff! That’s quality internet weirdness. And I’m very happy to share it!
I’m also really happy to share these videos from the YouTube channel eli_handle_b.wav. It looks to me like this channel came up with the Danny DeVito meme, with their videos inserting Frank Reynolds into Baldur’s Gate 3 and The Last of Us.
It’s just endlessly funny to me! Frank Reynolds is an amazing character, and there is so much Danny DeVito footage available. I hope the internet continues to deliver on this stuff, because it’s a hoot!
