Bullying is such an awful thing to do to people. Its consequences can also be huge. Michael was a teenage boy who moved between foster homes. He had no friends and felt like an outsider. To make things worse, kids at school bullied him all the time. They made fun of him and hurt him in many ways. He occasionally begged for mercy, but they wouldn't stop. He kept thinking to himself about what he would do to the bullies if he could have enough control. Suddenly, everything changed. He wasn't a victim anymore. You need to grab The Draycox Awakens by Jonathan Minott to learn how that happened and what he did when roles changed.

The book was really nice. The illustrations are colorful and expressive. I've read a couple of comic books before, but I liked this one the most. It is interesting and has a good storyline. I secretly agreed with the story while telling myself that what was happening was wrong. I didn't agree with the amount of violence, but I still enjoyed the story. I don't know if this makes much sense, but this is how I feel.

Other than that, I can't think of anything to dislike about the book. It can deliver a good warning to bullies that they won't always be on the strong side. It also shows what bullying can do to people. The book's editing was exceptional. It's all written in capital letters, and some words aren't typically spelled, but it's a matter of style. Nothing felt out of place. So, considering all of the above, I rate this book five out of five stars.

The book doesn't have the full story; it's to be continued in later sequels. I recommend the book to people who love graphic novels and superhero themes. I don't believe the book suits younger people because of the amount of violence it contains.

bullying can have significant negative effects on a person's well-being and therefore, we need to emphasizes the need to address this issue. I'm glad this book pointing towards that indirectly.

Comics/graphic novels aren't really something that I can get into. I like my novels novel-ly. This does seem to teach some great lessons, both for bullet and for their victims..

Cool to hear the book is addressing bullying issues. Problems with bullying just seem to be getting worse over time. I get how you feel reading it, it can be a confusing thing sometimes.

Bullies; the most useless people in earth. They're the weakest of humanity. If you need someone else to opress just so you feel relevant than you of all men are most miserable.

Bullying has a psychological impact on the victims, therefore, this issue must stop. Gladly, Michael is not a victim at all of the bullyings, that was his life before. Your review is wonderful!

Some classic science fiction comic tropes are used in this graphic novel that addresses in particular the issue of bullying. I'll look into this series of graphic novels. Thank you for your great review!
