Reviews & Previews - Week Ending 4/4/21
Mechas, Monsters, and Manga! Oh, My!
First and foremost, Happy Easter!
It’s been a busy week, and we’re excited to share some of the growth our site is experiencing, thanks to our fine, intrepid readers like you. Q1 is done, so we’re taking a moment to reflect on how far the site has come.
First, our site has qualified for ads. Qualifying is only possible because you keep reading and keep coming back. As we continue to grow, the revenue will help us do bigger and better things for you in the future.
Second, we’ve started reviewing our first manga title, My Hero Academia. Manga is a massive market and this is one of the top titles… for good reason. It’s the best superhero comic out there right now (sorry, Marvel and DC), and as we connect with more manga readers, we’re going to bring you more. So much more.
We promised at the beginning of the year that 2021 was going to be the year of “more,” and we’re making good on that promise. If there are titles and publishers you’d like us to add to our review roster, leave a comment on the site or hit us up on social media.
Thank you! Thank you for sticking around. Thank you for spreading the word to help our site grow. Thank you from everyone at ComicalOpinions.com for loving comics as much as we do and reading our stuff. Tell your friends.
