Review: After Hours vol. 2
By Thea Srinivasan
While love can be filled with new experiences and adventures, there are learning cycles everyone has to go through. Whether it’s trying to fix ourselves or learning how to deal with the flaws of our lover, we have to take everything openly. Not only that, communication is a key point into understanding our perspectives and someone else’s perspectives. The following review is the second volume of a series. If you have not read the first volume, this is your only spoiler warning.

Review: Blackwood #3
By Dustin Cabeal
What’s frustrating about Blackwood is that it’s clearly following the Dark Horse formula of mini-series over ongoings. Its what made Hellboy and the Mignolaverse successful because each new series is inviting to new readers. With Blackwood wrapping in one issue, it’s clear that this segment of the story will come to a close, but that the bigger story is just starting. I’m frustrated because I want to read a lot more of this series and who knows how long we’ll have to wait for it.
Review: My Hero Academia: Vigilantes vol. 1
By Dustin Cabeal
At one point My Hero Academia was the best new thing I had read. The world was like Marvel or DC but grounded more in how our society works. The pacing was fast, and it seemed to avoid all the shonen pitfalls that the genre is known to have. Unfortunately, for me anyway, with the rise in popularity My Hero Academia became more and more Shonen, which some people love. When it works, it works, and the creators produce a lot of long-running content which keeps them working and busy. At some point, the formula needs to change because not every plotline can sustain the long-running and filler feeling nature of the style and that’s exactly my problem with the core My Hero Academia series.
Review: Black Clover vol. 11 & 12
By Dustin Cabeal
Classic me, I waited too long to review both volumes apart from each other, and so here we are reviewing them together again. Really they deserve to be reviewed solo, but at this point just read the damn series. It’s one of my favorite current running manga, and while I refuse to watch the show due to the shitty direction the studio picked for it, I still enjoy this manga immensely. It’s the same schtick over and over, and yet it works every volume.
Review: Fire Punch vol. 3
By Dustin Cabeal
Fire Punch has been a bit of a rollercoaster. I know that’s cliché as fuck, but that is the best way to describe the giant ups and downs of the series. The first volume was amazing in what it set up and how it was executed. A character with regenerative powers being lit on fire by a man whose flames will only extinguish with death.
Review: One-Punch Man vol. 14
By Dustin Cabeal
One-Punch Man is a rare title. There will never be anything else like it because it is the perfect meeting of writing and art. While most people continue to be more familiar with the anime than the manga and really just falling in love with the gimmick and comedy, there is so much more going on in this series. To some, this will sound utterly crazy, but One-Punch Man is a brilliant representation of life.
Review: Tokyo Ghoul: re vol. 5
By Dustin Cabeal
I’ve been a big fan of Tokyo Ghoul and re-added some interesting elements and has taken a lot of chances. Moreover, Sui Ishida grew and changed as a creator which is an incredibly rare thing in manga. That doesn’t mean it’s all worked out, but it’s made Tokyo Ghoul one of the more interesting franchises to follow.
Review: Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba vol. 1
By Dustin Cabeal
Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba is a standard monster hunter story. There is one and only one element of the story that stayed with me, and it’s likely that it wasn’t supposed to resonate with me the way it did. Demon Slayer is also a weird title considering it’s a vampire story. They just call them demons, but they’re sucking blood and stay away from the sun so… vampires.
