Review: Moteki Vol. #1

By Thea Srinivasan

The definition of the word “Moteki” is a period in which a person gains popularity. This popularity only comes once in a lifetime, and it only works when someone becomes popular with the opposite sex. While this phenomenon is not meant to be for everyone, I wonder how many people would actually use this period to attempt to change their relationship status. I suppose that is the plot to the following manga.

Review: Blackwood #2

By Dustin Cabeal

I’ve written about this many times in reviews, but there was one point in my review life that I feared first issues more than second issues. The first issue is the journey into the unknown. You can’t possibly know if you’ll like the book at all until you crack up the pages for the first time. This, of course, leads to finding a lot of comics that aren’t in your wheelhouse. A few years back though it was as if every creator figured out the formula for a successful first issue. It could have been something amazing, but instead what happened was mediocre to poor second issues that felt more like first issues. It was like someone pulled some zero issue bullshit and so one after the other, I read horrible second issues. Suddenly, first issues didn’t even phase me. I expected them to be good to great, but to this day I still live in fear of the second issue because they still rear their ugly heads and send me away from a series faster than you can count the number of first issues released by Marvel in the past year.
