Thank you NetGalley an Webtoon Unscrolled for a free advanced copy in exchange for an honest review.
Doom Break Volume 1 promises a fantastic, fast-paced adventure with epic stakes to set it apart from other titles in the genre, but didn't quite deliver due to pacing issues and lack of character development. I wasn't drawn into Zephyr's as much as I had expected, and the plot-driven narrative wasn't strong enough to hook me.
The art is great and very dynamic, but overall, this wasn't quite the book for me.
Hooked at the first page. I want to know what happens next. Great illustrations; can tell how they went from one panel to the next and it wasn't confusing. Some graphic novels, I can't tell very well what happened because there isn't a good flow, which this one had good flow. Will purchase for our library.
Thanks Netgalley and publisher for this advanced copy.
Let's give more credit to the one who responsible for change the layout from scrolled version comic into tradisional one. It was really good and easy to read.
Doom Breaker was one of my favorite webtoon series. It was perfectly drawn and had such a good story development. I hope this traditional comic version would make more people to read it.
I hope to read another webtoon in this format.
This wasn't the normal isekai that I expected. It reminded me a lot like Re-Zero, except the hero doesn't have a reset point. Zephyr is OP, but not by much, and it's really the side characters that make up the story that get it to shine. I would say this is a solid read and I hope gets an anime adaption as the artwork is very heavy and much better suited for anime than a comic.
Thank you NetGalley and the publisher for allowing me to review an ARC. This is my honest opinion on Doom Breaker Volume 1.
Doom Breaker is another fantasy webtoon where a guy is fighting to save the world. I do like to try these, since you never know, but mostly the problem is that these series are so similar to one another. Zephyr, a fighter, is the last survivor after to world has ended and eventually gets slain by a Demon Lord, Tartarus. But, he gets miraculously reincarnated with all his memories thanks to the gods that think he's amusing. Now he needs to start from the beginning, since he's thrown 10 years into the past and he needs to prevent the upcoming destruction. So, the plot is interesting, although nothing new. It's just that killing monsters and collecting mana from dungeons gets boring pretty fast. There's nothing else to the story yet and it feels like your basic D&D stuff.
The art is OK, I like the vibrant colors and facial expressions. I also enjoyed how we get inside the other characters' head, which was super nice. Well, there's hardly anything going on inside the head of Zephyr, so no wonder. If you like stories like this, then this is surely for you. I kind of want more and something refreshing, but I haven't found it yet.
Thank you NetGalley for letting me review this arc for my personal opinion.
This was an action packed story! And I like the art style. That's about as much all the good I can say. The story's MC is pretty strong but he ends up being spoon fed to much by the gods, and him being sent back into the past to "redo" and save his loved ones felt a little weak sauce as a driving point. It's just basic.
I don't think I was its target audience maybe someone who is more masc minded or someone who liked Solo Leveling and DBZ
