Eden tells the story of one desperate family trying to survive. Interestingly, their desperation comes in many forms. Gabe is a dreamer – he wants to see the good in everyone and everything. His wife is a realist – she'll look at everything in the worst light, so at least she'll never be disappointed. Meanwhile, their daughter is a tech genius who just needs to be given a chance to flourish.
The Way of the Househusband continues to be a delightful and often hilarious read, even five volumes in. I can see why it's so popular (and why it has both an anime and a live-action series). It's so easy to relate to the characters, even when their backstories are so wildly different from our own.
The terrible tale of monsters hunting in one small town continues in Something is Killing the Children #11. Despite Erica Slaughter's best efforts (She didn't get that name for nothing!), the monsters are still rampaging.
Humanity has been discussing first contact with aliens for as long as we've daydreamed about space. In the far-flung future, that time is finally here. The Eo'Tax is an advanced civilization, and they're willing to work with humans to reach an understanding.
That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime Vol. 6 wastes no time throwing readers back into the deep end. To be fair, a lot is going on, so there isn't much time for hand-holding. We have enemies and allies galore, not to mention a few more twists in progress.
As it turns out, eradicating a monster population in a small town is not as easy as it sounds. Especially not when said monsters have had time to set up lairs and propagate. In Something Is Killing the Children #8, we're about to learn just how bad things can get. Again.
Ohhh! Time for more characters to get introduced, thanks to Fire Force Vol. 7. I know there's already a really full cast at this point, but I instantly felt compelled to learn more about Vulcan – everything I could get.
Erica Slaughter's journey seems far from over in Something Is Killing the Children #7. She may have killed the monster catching and eating children – but she hasn't ended events. Not yet, at any rate.
I could read My Hero Academia Vol. 27 a hundred times and still feel that emotional hit every time. This is a heavy volume, but it's also brilliant. The battles are bold and fascinating, with hidden depths everywhere.
Something Is Killing the Children #6 starts an all-new plot arc titled ‘The House of Slaughter.’ For fans following the series, that alone should give us a good idea of what will come. And that’s a pretty exciting fact.
