Picked that one up at the B&N last weekend. Good stuff! For me, MHA is what X-Men should be.
I haven't heard that angle before, largely because my knowledge of MHA is cursory. Can you explain a little, Mr. B?
Also curious about your take on Nine Stones. It looks like Westernized yaoi, but I never assume my first guess is right with manga-esque properties.
NINE STONES #1
Story: Samuel Spano | Art/Cover: Samuel Spano
Disturbing dreams shake Alistair "Allie" Jacobi's nights. But his daytime life is not much better. His father, the boss of a criminal organization, has decided that it's time for his son to gain experience in the underworld. So Allie, 19, finds himself doing an "internship" in a convenience store run by the man who, under the cover of home deliveries, is selling drugs to the entire city. To teach him the "job" is Christopher, an older guy. The bond created between the two of them will give life to dark presences and disturbing and enigmatic premonitions.
MHA is set in a world where a couple of generations ago, mutants - here called "Quirks" - began appearing so that by the present day about 80% of the human race are Quirks. To prevent society from dissolving into chaos, governments began regulating Quirks, insisting that Quirks* be certified before they can operate as heroes. (There's a gag that the first place to certify heroes was Rhode Island, and initially only seven people qualified.)
The protagonist of the series is a young kid attending a hero academy, where he learns how to use his powers to their best advantage in helping society, and also the practical stuff of whether or not to join a team, and how to get recruited, and so on.
(There's also a spin-off prequel series called My Hero Academia: Vigilantes, that explores what happens when people operate as heroes outside the law.)
I just prefer this to what seemed to be going on the last time I looked at the X-Men books, where even the good guys seemed to think of themselves as a sort of "Master Race".
Can't say much about Nine Stones, yaoi is the one genre of manga that I've never read.
*You have to be a Quirk to be a hero.
