Why a custom clothing place would ever agree to make these is beyond me.īob had a few little scenes in the movie. Bob wore the Joker henching uniform, which was a purple windbreaker with a picture of the Joker on it. They made Bob stand out a little in the movie. I'll always remember the henchman from the first Batman movie. The book answers the question, "Why would anyone be a henchman for these crazy-ass villains?" The art sort of grows on you and there are full page panel spreads that provide nods to comic artists of the past, so kudos for that. …ends up in jail a few times, loses his family as circumstance force him to work his way down the pecking order of villains.īottom line: Not as on point (or as funny) as say, The Superior Foes of Spider-Man Omnibus, in its attempt to skewer super hero conventions, but worth a quick read. …lands a job, gets a hench-name and a costume… Mike went through a rigorous interview process… His pal, gave him the ins and outs on who’s hiring… Fulton was a college football player, who injured his knee and ended up doing menial jobs until he met a friend who did the hench-thing. The story begins with Mike Fulton holding a gun on the hero, Still of the Night, as he reflects back on his life in service of sundry villains. Normally, this would be tossed on top of the “Everything-Must-Go” Aquaman books, but there really wasn’t much of anything else, and this sounded good…Īnd I’m happy I did.
