Great! is the award I use for Comics that I feel are not only good, but set a shining example for others to follow. You'll definitely like these Comics if you enjoy their genre, and they may even get you into the genre if you don't. Great! does not mean perfect, otherwise no Comic would get this score, so my reviews may still have some criticisms. In the text of each review I will try my best to justify why I feel the Comic being covered deserves the score I give, but please treat the scores as a guide rather than a strictly accurate measure of a Comic's worth. |

A Certain Scientific RailgunBasically, this is Japanese. By that, I don’t mean that it’s from Japan - although obviously it is. I mean it’s... Japanese. Suffice to say that this book is full of little girls with short skirts and super powers, said little girls beating up men twice their age with said super powers, oh and gratuitous shower scenes.

Afterschool CharismaWhile on the surface this all looks quite cheery, some of the topics covered - such as the rights of a cloned individual, self-harm and suicide - can actually be quite shocking. Posted Sunday 30th September 2012 by Crazy Choco

Air GearAir Gear tells a tale full of action, love, gang-warfare and fan-service. All carried out whilst on crazy futuristic Rollerblade-thingies called “Air Treks”. Posted Tuesday 6th March 2012 by Crazy Choco

Alice in the Country of HeartsNow, this is an interesting idea. Take something popular - in this case, Alice in Wonderland - then move it completely into a different genre - in this case shojo manga. It has taken a bit of skill and the willingness to completely change a few of the original characters to pull this off in a new format, but amazingly this series has turned out really well.
