Comic & Manga Reviews
A new war is brewing on the horizon in The Marked #9. In recent times, there have been several dramatic changes and revelations all over. Now, it seems that all that was merely the framework for what would come.
If you love paranormal thrillers and mysteries, The Strange Tales of Oscar Zahn Vol. 1 is the comic series for you. It's out of this world, with a ghostly investigator (see what I did there?) and plenty of paranormal investigations to behold.
Oh yay! I'm so glad the (published) adventures continue in Nothing Special Vol. 2! I really adored the first volume and had questions about where the story would go from here. Now I have my answers...and I want volume 3. I'm so greedy, I know.
I don't know how long a series like The Way of the Househusband can continue, but I can tell you that I will gleefully read every volume handed to me. The Way of the Househusband Vol. 9 continues in the same vein as the rest of the series, with Tatsu getting pulled into lots of quick stories and events.
Time for me to dive back into the world of Solo Leveling! (Side note: I wonder how many volumes I need to read before I can watch the show without fear of spoilers? I’m afraid to look it up, thanks to the ironic risk of spoilers). Solo Leveling Vol. 6 brings us back into Jinwoo’s world, his dungeon quest.
The Marked #8 has taken a dramatic shift in events, to say the least. Then again, this is a series about a secret society of magic uses. So, a sudden series of events, threats to humanity, and other ethereal dilemmas were bound to come up.
Lavender Clouds is a collection of slice-of-life comics centered around mental health and overall well-being. It's one of those comic collections that hits hard for those who have ever felt this way. In that sense, I feel like this book couldn't be more timely (thanks, 2020).

I’ll confess that I’m still extremely curious to see where Solo Leveling will take us. What heights will Jinwoo reach before the end - and what event signals the end, for that matter? That made me eager to dive into Solo Leveling Vol. 5.
The Marked #6 starts a whole new plot arc in this series of magic and deception. Still reeling from the loss of their comrades, the surviving Marked begin a discussion – of the past. It is not the story you might expect to hear, either.
