One-Punch Man, Vol. 3 by One

Yup, I think I’m abandoning this series. I had been hoping there would come a point when things would click and it’d become something more. Alas, it seems like it’s destined to continue being a hodgepodge of silliness that’s quite the mixed bag. In volume one, it was a fun time. In volume three, it introduces a whole host of new characters and plotlines that I didn’t care a smidgen about. Hero rankings, a meteor that’s going to be stopped by… I’m sure anybody reading these can […]

Well, I finally got my answer, vis-à-vis the autism assessment. I won’t get the definitive answer until Friday when I have the follow-up appointment, as the guy who did my assessment has to first confer with everybody else, but he assured me that he was for sure on it and doesn’t see anybody else swaying him. Finally, that weight is off my shoulders and I have a name to put to why I am the way that I am. Now comes the hard part: telling people. While […]

It might have something to do with me finding some, ahem, alternative means to reading them. What? I’ve tried the local library, but they’re useless. I wish there was some sort of online rental alternative. Maybe your library has some comics. If you’re super lucky, there’s some manga included in that collection. But good luck finding anything aside from like one copy of the most well-known properties. Apparently, for example, there’s only one copy of One-Punch Man, Volume 1, for example, hence why I had been waiting for  […]

Mob Psycho 100 Volume 1 by One

by Leave a Comment

I was speaking with a coworker about a Netflix show he had seen a few episodes of. It was Mob Psycho 100. I found book one and thought “Why not? I only have a couple thousand other books, what is one more to read?” Beside it was something I had never heard of and it sounded interesting. Plus, I have wanted to read more manga. I can boil down this review to three words: One unique story. Yet, another way to describe this book is […]

Okay, enough with the jokes. Now’s the time if you wanna apologize.

One Punch Man vol 1 by ONE

CBR11Bingo – Illustrated I love One Punch Man so much. If you haven’t read this before or seen the show on Netflix or Hulu, I highly recommend it. I don’t laugh aloud at books or tv shows very much, but both the comic here and the tv show leave me rolling. The set up is what it sounds like: a mysterious new hero arrives in the city and has the power to kill any monster, foe, enemy, adversary no matter how big or strong in […]
