Review: Takane & Hana vol. 1

By Thea Srinivasan

One 26 year old man with a giant ego and one 16 year old girl with a backbone leads to a recipe of a long-winded, comedic cat and mouse chase. Shoujo mangas are one of my greatest guilty pleasures of all time. Next to Korean dramas, I love the tropes of a good shoujo manga and this one did a decent job of creating its spin with unlikely, fun characters.

Review: Weed Magic #1

By Kelly Gaines

Weed Magic #1 is set on the date 4/20. That tells you a majority of what you need to know in regards to this book, but I’ll set the stage as vividly as I can. On the “420 of 420’s”, a wannabe film star and his law clerk roommate are desperate for weed. They visit their guy, the mysterious alley shaman known as My$tic, and are given a bag of weed described as a strain “fertilized with the manure of 50 virgins and hand misted three times a day with the sweat of 100 Thai ladyboys.” This weed, which they are given for free under a grave warning of its power, gives the men (Bunny and Moe) special powers. After a brief intermission of goofing off, Bunny and Moe decide to use their powers for good. After all, with great weed comes great responsibility- right?

Review: Discord

By Thea Srinivasan

I’ve always been a fan of the multiverse theory. The idea that that multiple universes always made me curious to the possibilities that exist beyond certain boundaries.  While the idea of universes created by various timelines irks me, I am always wondering what could lie beyond our universe and space. (I still get nightmares of seeing a version of myself.) Discord happens to be one such comic that helps me to wrap my head around the concept of various universes beyond everything I know that is logical.

Review: Children of the Whales vol. 1

By Dustin Cabeal

When I saw that there was an anime version of this manga, I knew I wanted to at least read the first volume before checking out the show. Now, I’m not sure I can watch the show because I might just stick to the manga. Anytime I read a story that makes me pause and say out loud, “Well, I did not see that coming”, then I’m usually all in on checking out more.

Review: The Incal vol. 1: The Black Incal

By Dustin Cabeal

The Incal marks the first time I’ve read anything by Alexandro Jodorowsky or Moebius. I’ve probably broken some comic taboo that I care nothing about. A little backstory for me, if you tell me there is a creator I must read, that I need to read, I won’t. I’ll wait until I happen across it which is the case here with The Incal.

Review: Devilman Crybaby

By Dustin Cabeal

When you see the word “Crybaby” it's hard to take anything seriously. We all know what a crybaby is and so adding that to the title characters name gives a connotation that most would shy away from. With a lot of anime though, if you watch based on the name or judge by the name, you’ll be surprised or disappointed. I say that because the name is actually brilliant, but you’ll have to watch the show to truly understand why.
