Valiant Previews: DIVINITY II #1 (of 4) – On Sale April 20th!

Gods walk amongst us =]

From our friends at Valiant

The much-anticipated follow-up to the 11-time sold-out series that The Onion/A.V. Club calls the “Best New Superhero of 2015” is here! The acclaimed creative team returns for a perfect new jumping-on point into the expansive sci-fi saga that shook the world!

At the height of the Cold War, the Soviet Union – determined to win the Space Race at any cost – green lit a dangerously advanced mission. They sent three cosmonauts farther into space than anyone has gone before or since. Handpicked orphans with no connections to Earth, trained as devout Communists, and restricted from having families, they became lost in the stars and encountered something unknown… Something that changed them.

Long thought lost and erased from the history books, Abram Adams was the first to return, crash-landing in the Australian Outback. The few that have been able to reach him believe him to be a deity. They say he can bend matter, space, and even time to his will. But, even with seemingly limitless power at his fingertips, he is concerned only with the secret love he hid away from his superiors and the unborn child he never had a chance to meet.

Now, Myshka, the female co-pilot of the group, has also returned to Earth…but, unlike Abram she had no secret family. Unlike Abram, she still believes in the Communist ideal. And, unlike Abram, she intends to play a very real role in the return of Soviet glory.

Earth is about to meet a new god. And she’s a Communist. How long can it be before the nations of Earth bend before DIVINITY?

Superman Returns #metropolismonday  

With Rebirth and Action Comics 957  the original (pre-flashpoint) Superman is back in a slightly revised costume. I stopped reading Superman books during the New 52 as it just wasn't 'my' Superman and the writers, or dictatorial editors, were simply not doing it right. I'm cautiously hopeful that Rebirth puts the magic back in the character with Dan Jurgens at the helm.

Are you a fan hoping to believe in the Man of Steel again? :-)

I liked New 52 Superman and have no interest in seeing the pre-Flashpoint version return.

Catch up with MangaMonday in The Comic Book Community =]


#manga  #anime #comics #thecomicbookcommunity
 
Well what do ya know... it's Monday! I almost forgot what a wonderful day it is 'cause it's time for #MangaMonday!

Some people wonder, "Does B-chan read anything other than action manga?!". Turns out, I do! Bringing to you today the romantic comedy that is Horimiya!


In case you're new here: #MangaMonday is a new feature in The Comic Book Community featuring a different manga every Monday! Each post will highlight a new or classic manga offering a brief summary and review from your host, B-chan. Be on the lookout for the hashtag to access past and future posts.


[Horimiya] Hori-san to Miyamura-kun is a Japanese yonkoma slice of life school comedy shōnen web manga series written and illustrated by HERO. It was published since 2007 by Square Enix on Gangan Online. 10 volumes compiling the chapters were released in Japan. It was adapted into an original video animation series. Horimiya, a spin-off (note from B-chan: more like a redrawing of the original art with some changes similar to what they did with One Punch Man) by Daisuke Hagiwara, is serialized since 2011 on Monthly G Fantasy. 6 volumes compiling the chapters have been released so far. It will be published in English by Yen Press. ^


About Horimiya:
At school, Kyouko Hori is known for being smart, attractive, and popular. On the other hand, her classmate, the boring, gloomy Izumi Miyamura tends to get painted as a "loser fanboy." But when a liberally pierced and tattooed (not to mention downright gorgeous) Miyamura appears unexpectedly on the doorstep of secretly plain-Jane homebody Hori, these two similarly dissimilar teenagers discover that there are multiple sides to every story...and person! ^^


B-Chan's Review:
Horimiya was a completely "at random" manga I chose out of the blue one day. I had no idea what it was about or what type of manga it was, but I like to mix it up every now and then to get some variety. Horimiya was exactly the light hearted manga I wanted to read to break up all the blood and violence I have been reading as of late. Horimiya is a cute little slice of life manga following Hori-san and Miyamura who portray themselves quite differently in their school lives than at home. Hori-san's younger brother helps fate bring the two together as we watch their friendship grow into something more. Most of the manga I absolutely adore, but there are a few times it can feel a little too much like typical high school drama that I could do without. All in all, if you're looking for a cute romance that follows the life of two teenagers looking to find themselves, I'd recommend picking it up and giving it a read for yourself.


What's your favorite kind of fictional romance that makes you "awww"?


I'm always up to read new manga! Is there a manga you would like to see featured on ? Let me know!


About Manga:
Manga is a Japanese comic book, sometimes published separately or as part of a weekly or monthly publication. Most manga is written and illustrated by a singular person, known as a mangaka, from start to finish. Manga is often uncolored, utilizing the inking stage to bring the pages to life.

Note from B-Chan: Even if you read manga online, always support the official release so more great manga can come your way and talented creators can continue to create!
