He is just like me guys - bored and done with his life, doesn't want to socialize minus the powers. A good and slightly dull start. 

I once saw a quote attributed to Matthew M. Bartlett, in which he tries to define cosmic horror:"For me, cosmic horror is about not only man’s insignificance, but his fragility, both physical and mental. Except for the fact that man is haunted by the vast gulf of nonexistence before his lifespan and its fast-returning resumption, he is in a fundamental way not terribly different from a newborn who dies within minutes of his birth. There’s an awakening into incomprehensible chaos, bright and loud and terrifying, and then it’s all gone. Forever. In our moment of chaos, we witness abjection, corruption, violence, and a ubiquitous instability of all systems—a general sense that we are at all times unsafe. And while there are beautiful things here for some of us–love, comfort, entertainments, the company of friends, and of animals–we fear that those good things exist only to mock us. In the end, we face the ultimate forgetting. All of that, and then there are the monsters."While I'm not sure I fully agree, I find it the closest to defining cosmic horror in the sense of how it makes me personally feel. Cosmic horror is, and I say this on a personal level, the most terrifying of all horror sub-genres, because it's the one that makes me feel dread less because of the monsters, but because of the ideas it presents about the world and how insignificant people are.Well, that was depressing... Still with me? This is Junji Ito doing cosmic horror.Yes. Yes it is as terrifying as that sounds. This is a hard one to review without spoilers. The plot follows the arrival of a mysterious new (or in the classic nature of cosmic horror, very, VERY OLD) planet that appears from a wormhole, lightyears away from Earth. The planet is named Remina after the daughter of the doctor who discovered it. Remina-mania occurs and the girl becomes something of a celebrity in her own regard because of this.When things go bad, and boy do they ever go bad, people need to blame someone. This is Ito fully embracing cosmic horror. That definition I posted above... it could practically have been written to describe this book. It shows horror in everything. Celebrity? Horrifying. Science? Terrifying. Hope? Don't make me laugh. I do not personally believe this is Ito's greatest work. (that is Uzumaki and likely always will be).. but honestly? I think it's his most terrifying. I'm sure it may depend on one's view of cosmic horror, but even if you don't find it the most terrifying sub-genre, if you're an Ito fan, it's well worth a look. A full 5/5 starsReview copy provided via Net Galley and VIZ in exchange for an honest review.

Orel Puppington is an optimistic, well-intentioned, and devoutly religious 11-year-old whose Christian devotion, enthusiastic church attendance, and general naiveté leads him to grossly misinterpret Bible lessons, often with morbid and ghastly consequences. In doing so, he unintentionally exposes the hypocrisy and duplicity of his family (particularly his father Clay), the members of his community, and ultimately, organized religion itself. Set in the fictional American state of Statesoda, which is located in the middle of the lower 48 states, "Moral Orel" has a stop-motion animation style similar to "Davey & Goliath", and appears to parody the religious undertones of the latter show. However, creator Dino Stamatopoulos intended for the show to be more of a parody of whole 1950's sitcoms such as "Leave It To Beaver" and "Father Knows Best".

Max Evans, Isabel Evans and Michael Guerin are teenage humans with extraordinary gifts - gifts that are "not-of-this-earth". They are human/alien hybrids, sent here to complete their destiny. Their counterparts have already perished in a war of attrition, thus one day, they will return to their home planet and save their race. Before a fateful day in 1999, the teens hid their gifts. The event that forever changed their lives was when Max healed Liz Parker (a classmate) after she was fatally shot in the stomach in a dispute between two customers at the restaurant where she waitresses. A close relationship then develops between Max and Liz. Central to the first season were the relationships between the hybrids and their human companions. That focus has shifted during the drama's second season. "Roswell" is now distinctly a science-fiction show built on the relationships between humans and aliens.
