Book Review Manga Classic: The Stories of Edgar Allan Poe

I Recommend This Book

Strongly

I really enjoyed the book. The first thing I noticed though is that when I started reading the ebook edition it started from the back of the book. I had to skip to the last page,315, to get to the beginning of the book. That could just be an error on adobe part but I wanted to mention it. I am a big fan of Edger Allan Poe so I feel honored to have had the chance to read this. I have read all his works and this one has the best classics. My favorite was The Tell Tale Heart, it was excellent! The characters were drawn perfectly to how I imagined them. I loved how you could see his maddening expression as the story went on. And I did enjoy that there was rare instances that differed from the original tale. I also enjoyed the curious facts that appear a few times in this manga adaption. I learned some things I did not know before. Like the beetles in The Tell Tale Heart purpose. The artwork for the raven was especially good. The image of Lenore was incredible. The pages of The Fall of the House of Usher also amazed me. The artist was amazing at recreating the house from the description of Poe tale. Every crack and dead tree was described well. As well as the furnishings and the rooms inside the house. This is a great modern manga version of Edger Allan Poe works. I hope there is more to come!

Book Review DC Essential Graphic Novels 2017

I Recommend This Book Strongly I enjoyed going through this. It was a great guide to know and having the knowledge of what comics were starting new in the rebirth and having a description of the comic along with its title and release date is incredible. I enjoyed that it also had comics from both DC and Vertigo listed. I liked the collectibles page. And I really appreciate the recommended list for reading order. I plan on using that. I think this is a great and useful guide for comic lovers!

Book Review Disney Manga: The Princess and the Frog

So for one, I am really happy that this is a manga. I am so excited. But I am disappointed in the lack of skin color. Everyone is white. Like just paper white that all. There is no diversity. The only thing colored is hair and eyebrows. I have seen a manga with dark skin characters they could have done that with this. But that was my only issue. The manga sticks to the story from the Disney movie and adds some insight which I really enjoyed. The manga though was short but covered everything from the movie. It was just as sweet and cute as the movie was. I hope many enjoy it!

Book Review Sci-Fu by Yehudi Mercado

I Recommend This Book Strongly I really enjoyed reading the comic. It kept my interest the whole way through. I loved how he is a middle schooler but a struggling Dj trying to get the girl. The artwork is incredible. The drawings are colorful and creative. The only problem is that the comic had some areas that were in and out of English to Spanish in those parts of the book it was confusing. Especially when the page has no translation to English. Other then that nothing wrong. This is a great comic, especially for African American boys. They will especially like it. Can’t wait for book two!
