I love Big Hero 6. It's an incredible film that did not get the hype it deserved, if you ask for my humble opinion. It's great to see that a manga has come out to give this fantastic brand a little more hype in the zeitgeist. It deserves all the love it can get. Now, how about we give some more under-rated or under-hyped Disney films a chance... Huh?... Maybe?... Please?...

Off to the review!

My points:

1. The cover itself is awesome. Sure, I'm not supposed to judge the cover but it's so colourful and energetic! It screams "come and read me!" Definitely a great touch. As someone with a background in Marketing, a great cover can grab the right audience.

2. This is a collection of stories that is full of fun and friendship! It brings our favourite crowd back together and it's just a great read.

3. FULL COLOUR IMAGES. Oh boy, I haven't seen those in a long time! Yeah!

4. If you want fast paced, full of fun and heroic antics, this book is for you!

Overall, one fantastic read! I truly hop I can grab a physical copy and have it mounted on my bookshelf of glory!

Five out of five stars!

Thank you to NetGalley for providing me a free copy of this book in exchange of an honest review.

It was so nice to see my favorite characters' adventures continue. I really enjoyed this comic book but I think the parts are out of sequence. I'm not sure if that was deliberate or not and it really doesn't detract from the rest. I definitely would recommend this book to fans of the movie and fans of comic books in general.

*This review is based of an eARC from NetGalley for an Honest Review.

I had a hard time putting this graphic novel down. The story unfolded in a few different parts, and in each one they faced off against some powerful foes. No two were alike and some tested this team in more ways than one. As this graphic novel comes to a close the adventures are far from over.

This was super fun to read. I barely remember the movie since I haven't rewatched it since it came out (2014?! I'm old), but I still loved to read this and am interested in reading the following volume(s). I especially loved Fred.
The only critiques I have are how the last chapter/ the flashback was confusing as it is put not in chronological order, and that some panels of the fight scenes were confusing and I couldn't really understand what was going on. I'd highly recommend this to Disney fans.

This is such a fun and fast pace comic, we follow a couple of short stories following our cast of characters and their adventures combating these villains inspired by comic villains. Each story follows a diverse cast of tropes and clichés from the world of superhero comics, what I find really fun about the take of this series is that, among the thing to be expected, the story takes the time to present new nuances that involve not only our heroes, but the villains too; there's humanity within these stories, the characters feel well rounded in a very organic way.
The art is beautiful, dynamic, the overall art style is definitely impacted by the movie adaptation.

For any lover of Hiro and Baymax, this series is another way to capture the heart of their friendship and team. Some young students may be disappointed in the black and white illustrations, while others may find it reminds them of the Manga stories that they keep asking their librarians to purchase! The panels are easy to follow the direction of the text and I could hear the characters' voices in my head on many panels. I know many young kids who would love another movie, but hopefully they will be satisfied with this visual continuation of their tale!

Title - Big Hero 6

Author - Hong Gyun An

Genre - Comic

I have been a fan of Big Hero 6 pretty recently after I came across the animated movie. Being an avid collector of various Marvel figurines, I couldn't resist myself picking up this galley as soon as I saw it.

For anyone who wants to read this, without spoiling much, this book consists of three plots that our heroes were put into. Though each of the plot mainly focuses on how Hiro tries to adjust himself in an all new environment with being the youngest in college and having an admirer who likes him as a hero but does not recognizes him as a student. Also, the comics extends on Baymax's cuteness which can never be ignored and makes this book a pretty fun read.

A fun series of short stories following the Big Hero 6 crew after the events of the movie. I loved the exploration of these familiar characters and how it felt authentic to them.

This book was given to me in exchange for an honest review


After his brother's heroic death, Hiro trys to heal and adjust to his new double life as a hero and a new student with his new admission to San Francisco Tech to follow his dreams of working in tech.

At school Hiro trys to befriend Karmi while the team of new heros try to learns and adjust to the new double life of becoming superheros.

While battling new villains, they'll learn that they have to practice more and failure isn't necessarily the end and You just have to find another way to achieve your goals.

It was so hilarious everytime Baymax gave honest health and physical updates and it was exciting to spot my favourite Disney characters sitting

And seeing the characters fail shows you that superheros area also human.

#BigHero6TheSeriesVol1 #NetGalley.

First, I want to say thank you to the author, publisher, and Netgalley for a copy of this book in exchange for my honest review!

Big Hero 6 is one of those movies I feel is completely underrated, so I jumped at the chance to read more about what Hiro and Baymax were up to! I loved seeing a more detailed look into how Honey, Go-Go, Wasabi, and Fred were individually. I also loved that the personalities matched up perfectly with what we saw in the movie. I loved seeing what happened almost immediately after the events of the Big Hero 6 movie and how Baymax came back. The artwork was also amazing.

I do wish that the order of the stories was a bit different. I felt like the last chapter should've been the first one we read, so it would've made more sense chronologically. I also feel like the events were taking place pretty quickly.

Overall, it was still a great and fun read and I will definitely be looking out for the rest of the series!

Story: I like the ideas for the chapters itself but had one main problem: Why are we getting the rework of baymax after already having seen two adventures they went on after baymax was back? The way the stories aren't in chronological order confused me severely. I watched the first 6 episodes of the tv show about one month ago and while I already knew a bit of this, especially the last chapter was familiar, I didn't know the story of chapter 2. But I liked the way people interacted and the different emotional insides of the characters. Also I enjoyed the jokes and made some remarks to myself while I was reading. (3.5/5)

Art: The watermark in my digital version was often times quite irritating (I understand why it is important though). Also I wished for a bit more shading as it was mostly black and white and for some pictures it was hard for me to differentiate the elements of each scene. But I still liked it. (3.5/5)

Overall I enjoyed being with them again and enjoyed the idea. But if I hadn't watched the first few episodes of the tv show I would have been even more confused about the choice of a non-chronological order. I am still interested in picking up the next volumes as I don't know how it goes on and I want to see how a few situations left open in this volume will be solved by our heroes.

3.5/5

Big Hero 6 is a phenomenal movie and this graphic novel picks up where the movie leaves off. Hiro saves the day, but he has to rebuild Baymax and sometimes rebuilding things results in epic failures and redos. Hiro learns from his superhero team, his professor at the university, an unlikely paired up lab partner and from his brother's memories that picking one's self up after failure is just as important as finding the lesson in the failure. And I LOVED that message that is carried throughout the three sagas in this volume. So many life lessons packed into one graphic novel.

The art style was more on the manga side for this one. It was fitting given the content, plot and characters. I enjoyed the action packed pages and superhero qualities added in.

Overall, this one is appropriate for any age level. You get to know the Big Hero 6 team a little bit better. And Baymax always provides diagnostics and comic relief (Pun intended). Baymax learning about art brought me joy - I can't wait for when Honey Lemon and Wasabi teach him about poetry!

The manga style suits the nature of Big Hero 6 quite well. It's a bit melodramatic which plays well with the over emphasized expressions and exaggerated movements.

Yes! Who here doesn't love Big Hero 6? The movie was endearing, and the comics (plus manga) have been such a blast to read. Naturally, that meant I didn't hesitate to give Big Hero 6: The Series, Vol. 1, written by Hong Gyun An, a try.

From the description, Big Hero 6: The Series, Vol. 1 is based on the animated movie (which I adore) and is more or less designed to roll right into the animated series (which I have not tried, but really should!). I love it when I can find books/comics that help bridge the gap between movies, shows, etc. So I went into this read expecting a lot of fun.

I wasn't disappointed. This was a fun collection of adventures featuring some of my favorite characters. However, I did look into it a bit further, and it turns out that Big Hero 6: The Series, Vol. 1 is actually based on a few of the episodes – which explains why the plot is new to me. I'm not sure if a fan that has seen the shows would appreciate it as much as I did, as it is likely covering a lot of the same material.

On the bright side, that same material contains some great moments, and once again: a great cast. Sorry to keep bringing that point up, but I absolutely adore Baymax, Hiro, Gogo, Wasabi, Honey Lemon, and Fred. On that note, I've really got to take some time to watch the show, if my reaction to this was any indication.

This graphic novel collection is adorable. The 3 chapters bring forth 3 different stories following beloved Disney characters. I enjoyed the read until I started the last chapter, at which point I was very confused. I don't think the book follows a regular timeline as the events that happen in the last chapter should technically take place before the first chapter. My main critique is therefore that the book should follow events chronologically.
Overall, I really enjoyed reading about Hiro, Baymax and the others and this is a fun little book for fans of Big Hero 6.

This one wasn’t for me.
The comic contains three stories, which was too many in my opinion. Because of the book’s length none of them felt thoroughly developed and there wasn’t any time to get invested in the stories.
I’ll skip the sequels.

Some new adventures await the friends from the Big Hero 6 animation. Following after the movie we get a glimpse of what Hiro gets up too. from facing adversaries at school to facing bad guys after scool. Each plot or bad guy comes with it´s own little `what have we learned in school today` scenario. It was fun.

Big Hero 6 The Series Volume 1 was adorable. All the characters you love from the movie are back and just as loveable before. (My favorite is Wasabi.) I think fans of the movie who also enjoy comics would really like this but fans of the show would probably like it even more.

The comic tells three separate stories, which is something I'm familiar with from other show based comics, but I felt like the order that they were in was a little odd. The third story really felt like it should have come first and then the comic end on story two; HOWEVER, as I'm not familiar with the show I feel like the order that it was in could have been much truer to the actual series than I realize.

Overall, this was a lovely start for a comic series for Big Hero 6 and I was really excited to see these characters come alive in this format. The art work was enjoyable and the characters felt true to what I remember from the movie.

I watched the Big Hero 6 movie ones, and cried so much I am scared to watch it again even though I loved it. I haven't seen the TV show though, so couldn't tell you how close to that this comic stays. What I can tell you though is that I had a lot of fun reading it. It even got quite a few giggles out of The Husband

The comic has three chapters, or three stories really. Which is also my main issue with it... the third chapter is set before the otther two so reading it felt quite jarring (unless memory is failing me of course and I just read things wrong). In each story our heroes get to epically battle some villain, whilst there is also space for the characters to grow on a personal level. I thought this was really neatly done.

Seeing as I got this through Netgalley, only the first few pages were coloured in. Which did a great job of giving us an idea of what the final product would look like: great. Nothing spectacular but it does the job and fits well with the characters as we know them already.

I was very happily surprised with this read and would definitely recommend it if you enjoyed the movie.

I think the formatting is a bit off or my kind app is having issues. All the scenes are out of order.
