X-Men: The Manga Remastered, Vol. 1
📚 Book Review: X-Men: The Manga Remastered, Vol. 1📖 Author(s): Hiroshi Higuchi, Koji Yasue, Miyako Kojima, Reiji Hagiwara, Rei Nakahara, Hirofumi Ichikawa 💭 My Thoughts: 🇵🇹 É bastante interessante ver os X-Men desenhados em estilo Manga. Esta obra é, essencialmente, uma adaptação solta da bem-sucedida série de animação dos X-Men dos anos 90. Para quem conhece bem os X-Men, como eu, a leitura pode tornar-se um pouco maçadora, uma vez que não há nada de realmente novo em termos de enredo. Nesse sentido, será mais apelativa para quem estiver menos familiarizado com este grupo de mutantes. Ainda assim, lê-se muito…

Uzumaki
📚 Book Review: Uzumaki📖 Author(s): Junji Ito 💭 My Thoughts: 🇵🇹 Uzumaki segue uma estrutura semelhante à de Tomie. Começa como uma coleção de capítulos vagamente ligados, centrados num único conceito — espirais — com alguns personagens e referências a reaparecerem entre os episódios. Ao contrário de Tomie, no entanto, evolui gradualmente para uma narrativa mais coesa e linear, culminando num final épico. Não é difícil perceber porque é considerada uma das obras mais populares e bem-sucedidas de Junji Ito. A arte é excecional, especialmente considerando que se trata de um dos seus primeiros trabalhos. Curiosamente, já se podem ver…
