#IReadsYou Review: COMBATANTS WILL BE DISPATCHED!: Volume 1

COMBATANTS WILL BE DISPATCHED!, VOL. 1
YEN PRESS

[This review was originally posted on Patreon.]

STORY: Natsume Akatsuki
ART: Masaaki Kiasa
CHARACTER DESIGNS: Kakao Lanthanum
TRANSLATION: Noboru Akimoto
LETTERS: Brandon Bovia
ISBN: 978-1-9753-0609-0; paperback (September 2019); Rated “OT” for “Older Teen”
180pp, B&W with some color pages, $13.00 U.S., $17.00 CAN

Combatants Will Be Dispatched! is a Japanese light novel series, written by Natsume Akatsuki and illustrated by Kakao Lanthanum.  A manga adaptation, drawn by Masaaki Kiasa, has been serialized in Media Factory's seinen manga magazine, Monthly Comic Alive, since March 2018.  Yen Press is publishing an English-language edition of the manga as a series of graphic novels.

Combatants Will Be Dispatched!, Vol. 1 (Chapters 1 to 5) introduces Agent Six.  He has spent his career as a “combat agent” and as an evil minion in service of the Kisaragi Corporation, an evil giant conglomerate with plans to take over the world.  Six has been slapping down superheroes, but now, Kisaragi has a new task for him.

Via its teleportation technology, Six will travel to a fantasy world – and invade it!  Traveling with Six is Alice Kisaragi, a “pretty-girl” and “high-spec” android.  Together Six and Alice initiate the first phase of their invasion – partner with the locals.  Before he knows it, however, Six is serving the Kingdom of Grace and is leading a troop of misfits that includes an irascible royal guard, an “artificial battle chimera,” and a wheel-chair bound magic user.  And they will help him take on demon-hordes.

[This volume includes an “Extra Episode;” an illustrated “Afterword;” and an original Combatants Will Be Dispatched! short story by Natsume Akatsuki.]

The Combatants Will Be Dispatched! manga is another new-to-me title.  I had not heard of the light novel series or of its manga adaptation until I received a review copy of the latter from my Yen Press rep.

Combatants Will Be Dispatched! Graphic Novel Volume 1, upon first glance, did not impress me.  However, there was this small voice in my head that said, “You might like this.”  Still, I avoided reading Vol. 1 for a bit.  Silly me – I just finished reading it and I enjoyed it way more than I ever thought I would.

Creator and writer Natsume Akatsuki has fashioned a cast of funny, eccentric, self-centered, randy, and occasionally obnoxious characters that are endearing when placed in the right setting.  This fantasy world, a medievalist type that one might find in a role-playing game, is just the right setting.

Artist Masaaki Kiasa delivers storytelling that reminds me of the graphical storytelling of Kenjiro Hata in his comic fantasy manga, Hayate the Combat Butler.  Combatants Will Be Dispatched! has a tone similar to Hayate's, a mixture of breezy comedy, fantasy, and scheming, but lovable characters.  I can't wait to read more because I want to see what happens next.

#IReadsYou Review: STAR WARS: Target Vader #1

STAR WARS: TARGET VADER No. 1 (OF 6)
MARVEL COMICS – @Marvel

[This review was originally posted on Patreon. and please visit the "Star Wars Central" review page here.]

STORY: Robbie Thompson
ART: Marc Laming; Cris Bolson
COLORS: Neeraj Menon; Jordan Boyd; Andres Mossa; Federico Blee; Erick Arciniega
LETTERS: VC's Clayton Cowles
EDITOR: Mark Paniccia
EDITOR-IN-CHIEF: Akira Yoshida a.k.a. C.B. Cebulski
COVER: Nic Klein
VARIANT COVERS: Carmen Carnero; Marco Checchetto
28pp, Color, $3.99 U.S. (September 2019)

Rated “T”

Part 1 of 6: “On the Hunt”

Star Wars: Target Vader is a new six-issue comic book miniseries.  It is written by Robbie Thompson.  The art for the first issue is drawn by Marc Lamming and Cris Bolson, with coloring by Neeraj Menon, Jordan Boyd, Andres Mossa, Federico Blee, and Erick Arciniega.  Series letterer is Clayton CowlesTarget Vader finds the Dark Lord of the Sith hunting for a mysterious criminal syndicate that operates outside of the rule of the Galactic Empire.

Star Wars: Target Vader #1 opens on the “Lower Bay Docks” of Eikari in the Outer Rim.  Holaq, a gun-toting criminal, has chosen his new allies badly.  Darth Vader is on the hunt!  He is searching for “The Hidden Hand,” a highly-secretive criminal syndicate that is selling weapons to the Rebel Alliance.  Emperor Palpatine wants Vader to find The Hidden Hand and to expose and destroy every member and to also tear any allies or associates to pieces.  Meanwhile, on Coruscant, the notorious bounty hunter, Beilert Valance, is about to get an offer from The Hidden Hand.

Sometime before the debut of the 2015 film, Star Wars: The Force Awakens, a commentator wrote that he would like that film and the Star Wars films to follow to be more like the original Star Wars (1977) film.  To him, that first film was a kind of science fiction that had the elements of an American Western film.  I can see the spaceport town of Mos Eisley on the planet Tatooine as something like an isolated Western outlaw town.

Star Wars: Target Vader #1 has a vibe that suggests the original Star Wars film.  The settings and action could be from either a Western or even from an urban gangland fairy tale like “The Untouchables” (1959 to 1963) television series.  Robbie Thompson's script for this first issue is a lean, mean, fighting machine – quick to the point and quick to dispatch characters to their violent deaths.  Thompson manages to make even Darth Vader seem vulnerable (somewhat) in this scenario.

The other star of this comic book is Beilert Valance, now an official character in the Star Wars canon.  He is a re-imagined version of Valance the Hunter, a character that originated in Marvel Comics' first Star Wars comic book series (which began in 1977) and not in the Star Wars films.  [Valance was created by writer Archie Goodwin and artist Walter Simonson and first appeared in Star Wars #16 (cover dated: October 1978).]  Thompson makes Beilert seem quite intriguing:  a loser with a bad-ass streak and the skills to kill.

The art for this issue is split between Marc Laming and Cris Bolson.  Both deliver comic book art that is in the spirit of science fiction comic book artists of the pasts like Al Williamson and Dan Barry.  The coloring is bright and vivid and shimmers like starlight, and Clayton Cowles proves to be a letterer whose fonts are perfect for Star Wars.

I really like Star Wars: Target Vader #1, and I hope the rest of the miniseries can offer the excitement this one does.  This series might even offer readers a kind of Star Wars take on DC Comics' Suicide Squad.  I can say, once again, that Marvel's Darth Vader titles are consistently good.
