shaneent's review against another edition
2.0
This was, indeed, a collection of comics from the 70s.
A lot of dated language and attitudes around race and sex.
There's basically one plot repeated in every individual comic.
There are so many words. So many unnecessary words.
Not a bad starting place, if you're looking to get acquainted with the character of Shang-Chi and his origins before the movie comes out, but don't go in expecting MCU level character development and plot.
It did touch on a few deeper subjects occasionally, before it got right back to the same-old-same-old.
