Comic & Manga Reviews
Soma is such a strange yet fun tale; I don’t even know where to begin. It takes one comic book artist (ironic, I know) on a grand adventure that involves aliens and saving the world. The characters, even the human ones, are completely out of this world in the best of ways.
Night People is a compelling and sometimes disjointed story about a collection of people. Every person in this story has a reason for committing crimes, from simply liking it to trying to survive. It makes for an interesting view of the human soul.
Oh boy. El Fuego was intense. I have many feelings about them, and I’m unsure how to describe them! So I guess that’s something - if you’re looking for a graphic novel that will make you feel, this one is worth checking out.
I'll admit, this is probably the most conflicted I've felt about reviewing a book in a long, LONG time. On the one hand, I enjoyed the brutal reality that comes with relationship drama. On the other hand, it felt a little…forced and heavy-handed at times.
Ahhh! As a massive fan of the Cult of the Lamb game, I was excited by the news of a graphic novel adaptation. Better yet, it seems like Cult of the Lamb Vol. 1: The First Verse may be the first in a series? I can hope!
If there’s one thing I can say about Akogun, it’s that it is one heck of a whirlwind. This graphic novel will keep you on your toes from start to finish. It’s a dark read with many surprising and brutal twists.
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.
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.
Unsurprisingly, Scott Pilgrim vs. The World is just as good as the first volume! It's funny, strange, and the perfect combination of elements. This is my first time reading the series, and I am having so much fun!
Okay, so I'm WAY behind on the times here. I loved Scott Pilgrim Vs. the World (the movie) when it came out. But somehow, I never actually got around to reading the manga it was based on? I don't know how that happened. Oh well.
