This collection involves a high school student discovering that he has magical powers which originate many galaxies away. He is whisked away to fulfil a destiny to save the world from where his family originates. Many mystical battles ensue, involving different alien yet magically endowed races

These different alien races pepper the comic allowing plenty of imagination from the artist who delivers the artwork reasonably well although it a bit too colourful for my taste. The plot is a bit too heavy on detail and complicated names.

Recommended to all lovers of science fiction superhero comics.

This was an ok book in my opinion. The stories were mostly interesting.

Myself, I prefer a novel format for reading a story, but it was ok.

Already th introduction made me laught, with its funny style it made me curious about the rest. I loved most of the stories and didn't mind some but all in all this book is great!
Looking forward to read the next short stories book from this writer!

I will say that I enjoyed reading a sampling of stories from the different genres. It kept me interested, but I will admit, I don't read story after story - but read one here and there.

The stories themselves were entertaining, however some seemed to end abruptly. The one that first comes to mind is "Reality". It moved right along until the end, when it seemed liked the author had been interrupted and someone else stepped in and quickly finished it. The flow was lost, and it was truly a disappointment.

The stories were entertaining and a very light read, but be warned - there are many grammatical errors.
