Twisted, Sister
Disney's Twisted Wonderland manga by Yana Toboso, Wakana Hazuki, and Sumire Kowano is the perfect successor to Kingdom Hearts.
Perfect in that it is: 1. Japanese, 2. Based on a video game, and 3. Doesn't make a damn bit of sense.
I'm gonna be honest, I skimmed through this one. The beginning starts off like a sports manga about kendo, which I was enjoying, but after a couple of pages the main character is whisked away to Hogwarts Night Raven College where he has to compete with classmates? And one of the classmates is into Queen of Hearts cosplay? And he has to dorm in the Haunted Mansion?
Like I said, I skimmed it.
Anyway, if you like the cellphone game and/or Goth Disney, you'll probably like this book. Volume 2 comes out tomorrow, I believe.

Oh! You Pretty Things
Evil Things is a comic without a clear reason for existing*. Was the world really clamoring for a graphic novel telling the origin story of 101 Dalmatians villainess Cruella DeVille? Especially when Cruella was already given two completely separate origins in the (surprisingly entertaining) Emma Stone movie and the YA prose novel by Serena Valentino herself?
Evil Thing Graphic novel by Sara (Gloomcookie) Valentino and Arielle Jovellanos
Probably not, but we got one anyway.
