Review: RADIANT Volume 1

RADIANT, VOL. 1
VIZ MEDIA – @VIZMedia

[This review was originally posted on Patreon.]

MANGAKA: Tony Valente
TRANSLATION: Anne Ishii
LETTERS: Erika Terriquez
EDITOR: Marlene First
ISBN: 978-1-9747-0381-4; paperback (September 2018); Rated “T” for “Teen”
184pp, B&W, $9.99 US, $12.99 CAN, £6.99 UK

Tony Valente is a French comics artist, and he is one of a growing number of foreign-born manga artists whose work is being published in Japan (according to Anime News Network).  VIZ Media is publishing his manga, Radiant, in North America as a series of graphic novels.

Radiant, Vol. 1 (Chapters 1 to 4) introduces Seth.  He is an apprentice Wizard, and is one of the “Infected.”  Under the guidance of his cruel tutor, Alma, Seth is learning how to use magic (called “fantasia”) to stop evil creatures known as “Nemeses” that plague humanity.

However, Seth is special, and it will take a special place to train him so that he can reach his ultimate goal, to find and to destroy the mythical Nemesis nest, called “Radiant.”  So now, he has to start, but The Artemis Institute seems like a helluva place to learn.

[This volume includes bonus manga, “Doc's Lesson,” “The Nemeses!”, “The Wizards,” and “Some Basic Tools.”]

I was surprised to learn (via some Google searches) that the Radiant manga was originally a French manga.  I thought that “Tony Valente” was an odd name for a Japanese manga creator, and I thought that Valente might be one of those foreign artists working in Japan as manga artists.  However, Radiant is good enough to get published in Japan as manga.

Radiant Graphic Novel Volume 1 introduces a narrative that could indeed be a Japanese-born and bred manga, published in the pages of Weekly Shonen Jump or another Japanese shonen manga magazine.  Radiant reminds me of and has the freewheeling spirit of Hiro Mashima's wildly popular manga, Fairy Tail.  Seth is also similar to the plucky and stubborn Uzumaki Naruto, especially the young ninja of the early volumes of Masashi Kishimoto's beloved manga, Naruto.

One thing I did have to get used to about Radiant is that writer-artist Tony Valente packs almost every page with visual and graphical elements.  Sometimes everything is so squeezed into a page or into an individual panel that it is difficult to read the dialogue and also takes considerable effort to interpret the story.  Still, it is worth it.  Radiant has a fascinating, Harry Potter-like quality that makes me want to read more.  I think Radiant has a lot of potential.

Review: DR. STONE Volume 1

DR. STONE, VOL. 1
VIZ MEDIA – @VIZMedia

[This review was originally posted at Patreon.]

STORY: Riichiro Inagaki
ART: Boichi
TRANSLATION: Caleb Cook
LETTERS: Stephen Dutro
EDITOR: Jon Bae
ISBN: 978-1-9747-0261-9; paperback (September 2018); Rated “T” for “Teen”
192pp, B&W, $9.99 U.S., $12.99 CAN, £6.99 U.K.

Dr. Stone is a shonen manga from writer Riichiro Inagaki and artist Boichi.  Inagaki is a manga writer known for his work on the series, Eyeshield 21.  “Boichi” is the pen name of manhwa artist, Mujik Park, a Korean-born artist living and working in Japan.  Set thousands of years in the future, Dr. Stone focuses on the efforts of two friends to revive human civilization.  The manga began serialization in a March 2017 issue of Japan's manga magazine, Weekly Shonen Jump.  VIZ Media is publishing the manga as a paperback graphic novel series, entitled Dr. Stone.

Dr. Stone, Vol. 1 (Stone World; Chapters 1 to 7) introduces Taiju Oki and Senku.  Taiju is petrified of admitting to fellow high school student, Yuzuriha, that he loves her.  His friend, Senku, is a high school science prodigy who watches Taiju's pitiful efforts with disdain.

Suddenly, one fateful day, a blinding flash petrifies everyone, turning every human into a statue, and civilization gradually falls apart.  Then, one day Taiju reawakens, bursting from his stone shell, but he is shocked to discover that it is 3700 years later!  And he is not alone, as Senku has been up and running for over half a year.  Now, the two must kick-start civilization, which will not be easy, even with the power of science.

The Dr. Stone manga is an odd shonen manga.  For some reason, I keep thinking of Hanna-Barbera's long-running animated television franchise, “The Flintstones.”

Dr. Stone Graphic Novel Volume 1 reveals this manga as a something quite unique.  Writer Riichiro Inagaki offers a compelling story, a far-flung future that is the setting for the rebirth of humanity.  He presents engaging characters – two teen friends who form one of the most delightful opposites-attract duos that you will find in comics.

Boichi's richly detailed artwork is pretty and also makes for some attractive graphical storytelling.  Boichi also manages to make the real world scientific principles Inagaki's presents in this story something like eye-candy storytelling.  I am surprised.  I did not think what to make of this series, but there is potential here, especially because it has an interesting take on the villain...

Review: BLEACH Volume 74

BLEACH, VOL. 74
VIZ MEDIA – @VIZMedia

MANGAKA: Tite Kubo
TRANSLATION: Joe Yamazaki
LETTERS: Mark McMurray
EDITOR: Alexis Kirsch
ISBN: 978-1-4215-9602-0; paperback (October 2018); Rated “T” for “Teen”
208pp, B&W, $9.99 US, $12.99 CAN, £6.99 UK

Bleach is a shonen manga (comics for teen boys) series written and illustrated by Tite Kubo.  Bleach was serialized in the Japanese manga magazine, Weekly Shōnen Jump, from August 2001 to August 2016 over 686 chapters.  The series became a media franchise, spawning a long running anime television series, four feature films, OVA (original video anime) episodes, video games, stage musicals, light novels, and merchandise.

In Japan, the 686 chapters of the Bleach manga were collected in 74 tankobon (book) volumes.  VIZ Media has been publishing the Bleach manga in English in a series of graphic novels since 2004.  The first week of of October 2018, VIZ will publish the 74th and final graphic novel volume of their publication of Bleach.

Bleach focuses on Ichigo “Strawberry” Kurosaki.  He is born with the gift that is the ability to see ghosts, a gift he does not want.  However, this ability introduces Ichigo to the world of the Soul Society.  After his family is attacked by a Hollow, a malevolent lost soul, Ichigo became a Soul Reaper.  He dedicates himself to protecting the innocent from tortured spirits and to helping those spirits find peace.

Bleach, Vol. 74 (entitled The Death and the Strawberry – Chapters 675 to 686) is the conclusion of the final story arc.  Yhwach, the leader of the Quincies, is the most powerful adversary in the series.  Also known as “The Almighty,” Yhwach wants to unite the Soul Society and the living world into one entity, which apparently will cause the end of death.  Now, it is up to Ichigo to engage and to defeat Yhwach in a final battle, but he will need the help of some surprising allies, which includes the unexpected return of a number of infamous figures.

The Bleach manga is a visually striking graphic narrative.  Although it can seem repetitive, both visually and graphically, at times, Bleach was and is a fantastic and invigorating read.

I don't know what to make of Bleach Graphic Novel Volume 74.  The graphical storytelling is not as explosive and as kinetic as it was during peak periods of the series.  The storytelling is almost impressionistic, whereas creator Tite Kubo, in the past, drew as if he were trying to capture lightning in a bottle.

The last two chapters of this volume are about cleaning up and about the next generations, and in some ways, Kubo is sweeping up the last swaths of energy.  A few classic characters even make a cameo to do their last things and to say their goodbyes.  Kubo gives us a happy ending, but the truth is that Bleach was at its best when it was in battle royale mode.  And that will always be its best.  We had to say goodbye sometime, but we can go back and revisit the good, the bad and the peak strawberry of Bleach.
