This comic book presents to us an pretty intriguing premise but struggles to deliver a compelling story. Because in a way the concept for this comic book is promising, the way it is executed and presented to us falls short in several key areas.

The narrative of this comic book follows the Red Ranger, a character transported from a familiar world of heroics into a fantasy realm filled with magic and monsters. This setup has the potential for exciting cross-genre storytelling, combining elements of superhero action with fantasy adventure. However this comic book fails to capitalize and deliver on this potential, resulting in a story that feels disjointed and underdeveloped.

One of the main issues I had with this comic book is it’s lack of character depth. The protagonist, despite being a recognizable hero, comes across as one-dimensional. His transition from a world of structured heroism to the unpredictability of a fantasy setting should be rife with internal conflict and growth, but this comic book instead offers a superficial portrayal of his journey. The lack of character development makes it difficult for readers to connect with or invest in his adventure.

The side characters in this comic book aren’t much better than the main character of this comic book. The side characters which are introduced alongside the Red Ranger often feel like placeholders rather than fully realized individuals. Their interactions with the protagonist lack substance, reducing them to mere plot devices rather than contributing meaningfully to the story. This lack of depth hampers the narrative, leaving it feeling hollow.

The plot in this comic book is another area which I wasn’t a fan of. Since the initial concept of the plot is pretty intriguing, the story quickly becomes bogged down by clichéd scenarios and predictable outcomes. The narrative leans heavily on well-worn tropes of both the isekai and superhero genres without offering any fresh twists or insights. This reliance on familiar plot devices results in a story that feels more like a rehash than an innovative blend of genres.

The pacing in this comic book is very uneven in this comic book. Because it has abrupt transitions and a lack of cohesive flow. Key events often feel rushed, with little buildup or payoff, while other sections drag with unnecessary exposition. This inconsistency disrupts the reading experience, making it challenging to maintain engagement.

However the only good thing about this comic book is the writing style in this comic book which is the best thing about this comic book. The writing style is accessible, and there are moments where the world-building shows glimpses of creativity. The fantasy realm is populated with intriguing creatures and magical elements that hint at untapped potential. Unfortunately, these moments are rare and not enough to elevate the overall narrative.

I Give This Book 2 / 5
