Comic & Manga Reviews
Most of the time, I really enjoy tie-in graphic novels and the like. That said, I feel like I could have skipped Stranger Things: The Bully and not felt like I was missing out. It is a bit of a "take it or leave it" sort of story; forgive me for saying.
This series is just as sweet and charming as I remember! Granted, it hasn't even been a month since I read the second volume, so there's that...Anyway! I'm still enjoying this witchy slice-of-life tale.
It's always a bit surprising when a series does a time jump, no matter how short. That said, it often also leaves room for more character development and growth. So I was happy to see that happen in Scott Pilgrim Vol. 4.
Monsters are real, and they're hungrier than ever. Heroes are also real, though they're not quite what we expected. At least, the one in Something Is Killing The Children #2 certainly doesn't appear to be your everyday hero.
Okay, I have a confession to make: I'm a sucker for the "journalist getting thrown into the supernatural deep-end" trope. So the second I saw Haunt You To The End, I knew I had to read it. That it also included corporate dystopian elements just made it all the more compelling.
Once upon a time, a man named Tatsu was a fierce member of the Yakuza. He was known as the Immortal Dragon and infamous for everything he did – and survived. But that was years ago. Now he's a househusband and quite dedicated to the job.
It's time to dive back into this series! I had planned on reading it all before the new Netflix series dropped. Since that happened almost a month ago (at the time of writing this), I failed miserably with that goal.
The Rat Queens have faced many strange adventures and creatures over their two series. But none like what they will face in Rat Queens #23. This is a fun side quest, so to speak, while the real danger still lurks in the background.
Okay, so there was a lot that drew me to this series. First, the dystopian vibes intertwined with a fantasy setting. Second, the author! I love G. Willow Wilson (famous for Ms. Marvel), so I had pretty high hopes for her new fantasy series.
Makoto Kowata is a witch. Or rather, she's a witch in training. As such, she has packed up all her belongings (and cat) to live with distant relatives. It's a bit of a family tradition – a way of sending young witches out into the world - but in a gentler way.
