One-Punch Man, Vol. 2 (One-Punch Man, #2)

Yusuke Murata (Illustrator)

Nothing about Saitama passes the eyeball test when it comes to superheroes, from his lifeless expression to his bald head to his unimpressive physique. However, this average-looking guy has a not-so-average problem - he just can't seem to find an opponent strong enough to take on! He's easily taken out a number of monsters, including a crabby creature, a malicious mosquito girl and a muscly meathead. But his humdrum life takes a drastic turn when he meets Genos - a cyborg who wants to uncover the secret behind his strength!

One Punch Man is still going strong! Or should I say, the plot is getting stronger. I don’t think Saitama can get much stronger (and would he even notice if he did? It’s not like he’s been able to really push his abilities).
This is such a funny and inane series, but it’s well supported by an actual and interesting plot. That makes it unique and many ways, and absolutely worth the read!
The second volume digs a little deeper into the plot, with the fights being longer running events this time around. It gave us a great chance to get to know our characters (in my case, since I already watched the anime, I’m getting to know them all over again, but it still counts).
