Comic & Manga Reviews
Avatar: The Last Airbender: Imbalance is the sixth plot arc to stem from the animated series that fans have fallen so in love with. After the popularity bump that came when Avatar: The Last Airbender moved to Netflix, I was inspired to read through as many of the comics as possible. So far, it's been absolutely worth it!

It only seems appropriate to read and review Naruto, considering the release of Boruto Vol. 1. Volume one is the kick-off for a seventy-two volume series, as well as two (successful) TV series. That being said, I've noticed that there are really two categories for how people feel about Naruto: either they utterly hate it, or they are absolutely in love with it. There are very few people in between.
The teenage superheroes are back at it, this time they’re working to reduce crime in New York City. With even more cameos than normal (hello Cloak & Dagger, Captain America, Iron Man, Spider-Man, and Wolverine!), this volume is probably the busiest of the bunch.
I have been told time and time again that I need to read Fables, so I finally sat down and read Fables Vol. 1. The first story is pretty interesting, but I’m thinking that either it didn’t quite live up to the hype, or I just need to keep reading. You know what it’s like when a series has been overhyped to you.
After a brief gap, the Runaways are back for volume four. Because of the events in three (you know, stopping their villain parents from taking over/destroying the world), there’s a massive power vacuum in Los Angeles, and the Runaways are determined to make a difference!

Radiant Black is another series I’ve been meaning to pick up for years, but hey, at least I’m only like, four or five years behind on this one! But seriously, I’m glad I finally sat down and gave this one a try.
After all this build-up, the Runaways finally face off against the Pride in an attempt to stop their parents from completing their goals. This is the volume you don’t want to skip to or skip over, so make sure that you make time for it. Along with everything else is an origin story for the Pride – but don’t worry, the background to them doesn’t make them anymore sympathetic, so feel free to continue hating them.
Man, are we already twenty-five volumes into My Hero Academia? That's almost hard to believe. Then again, there's been a lot going on, so maybe it isn't all that surprising. Either way, it's been a thrilling series, and I hope that the end is nowhere in sight.
