Interesting premise. The artwork is fine, and there are some particularly nice scenes toward the end. Character design is nice. Narrative was a bit wordy and some scene transitions could've been smoother. The main character's only 7 - 8, so a few things are bit far-fetched. I think it's super fun that the setting is futuristic Ethiopia.
At first, this gives off typical shonen manga vibes, complete with a crazed villain who gets off to violence, but there's a recurring theme of God, theology, and morality that's different. I would definitely read the next volume/issue.

Eh, was this supposed to be funny? Because not one of ‘em jokes was hitting. This is a run-of-the-mill power fantasy whose humor would work better in an animated form. I thought the father-son relationship was nice though.
Mash is overpowered and good at everything, so there’s no tension. That’s the joke though everyone is surprised he’s so exceptional. But it just leaves nothing for me to enjoy. Now, he’s not conceited or anything. He’s very nonchalant and calm actually, but I don’t care about him or any of the other characters.
I really really shy away from making comparisons because why not view each story as its own separate entity. But… One Punch Man (at least season 1) plays with this same premise but manages to make it entertaining off the strength of the characters alone.
It was a real constant temptation to dnf this.
SN: The author notes were so earnest and appreciative of readers. Also, do y'all owe the Harry Potter franchise royalties? That's legit the quidditch game

Really enjoy this series and the development Gina’s getting. There’s a message about not running away and giving up when things go wrong. The tension is brimming here along with the slapstick, but Winick doesn’t discount the action and emotional moments for the kiddies.
Also, I love Pip! He’s so fun.
