MANGA
Dororo

Despite my limited exposure, I love sentai. I'm iffy on the "what if superheroes were bad??" Stuff because it's so saturated in western comics. This ones interesting, though.
Asadora!

!!MORE TO COME!!
Here's some one-offs i've read. Stuff from the old BookZone.
JIN
No clue why i'm so damn into this one. Jin stars Jin, a 20th century neurosurgeon transported to edo period Japan. I feel like it's a rather grounded story for a medical drama. I mean, some parts are a little House M.D, but they're definitely operating in some limits; Like Penicillin production being so primitive and limited. The reoccuring joke where Jin does CPR and everyone freaks the fuck out kills me every time. I haven't finished this one yet, but It's a good read so far. The whole thing is on the creator's patreon.

LYCANTHROPE LEO
VIZ FINISH TRANSLATING THIS SHIT. I loved the first volume; It is such 90s shonen. Loved the creature designs as well. God, I wish this was more popular. It only got 4 volumes, unfortunately.
