Steven Universe Vol. 1

Nice, glossy pages, cute, dynamic artwork, and extremely charming story content - it's a much higher quality product than the whole "tie-in comic" thing would lead you to believe, and is definitely worth a look for anyone who enjoys the show or warm, thoughtful cartoons in general. The collection of alternative cover artwork in the final pages is a very nice touch. This volume has earned a seal of approval from my nine year old niece, and I've enjoyed reading it with her - it's cute and good-natured without being saccharine, and it avoids the negatively juvenile mindset and humor common to a lot of childrens' media. Like the show, it manages to strike a tone that has potential appeal for kids and adults alike.

This comic volume is perfect for any Steven Universe fan! However, my only complaint it that Jeremy Sorese did not fully capture the essence of the Gems' or Steven's characters in his comics. I do not know how to explain it precisely, but it always felt like something was missing in his comics. Like the heart and soul so present in the Steven Universe show was not translated correctly. Regardless, it is still a very entertaining volume and there are plenty of other authors who contributed. I particularly liked Josceline Fenton's comics because it seemed like the most natural extension of the show. Also, the artwork included in the back are absolutely beautiful.

If you are a fan of comics I believe you will enjoy the Steven universe. I am very much enjoying learning all about the gems and how they always save the day. It is something that my daughter and I can read. Good for Anyone that likes a good adventure and a good comic series.

Great books a drawings. This book is for Steven fans all over! the book is like the show but in comic form. The pictures are great and comes with some you can rip out and have as posters. Love it and so did my little brother. For the price you are getting a lot of stories and a great read. Highly recommend it to everyone.

This is a beautiful book. I love the individual full-color issue art at the back, and I appreciate how the characters' personalities shine through and match up to the show. Readers will enjoy if they're casual viewers or hardcore fans. As far as stories go, though, I don't believe the abruptly-ended issues translate as well as they do in the show. Episodes ending that way come off like a kind of anti-humor and they fall a bit flat on the page for the couple stories that end this way.

Bought as a Christmas gift for my 14 year old sister and she loves it. The book is the Vol 1 of the comics of Steven Universe. The most interesting part of the book is that it has different artists which show different art styles. Very colorful book and my sister has enjoyed reading it very much. I will most likely purchase Vol 2 in the future.

As another reviewer mentioned, actual show is way better, story-wise. But having had similar experiences with the Adventure Time comics, I was kind of expenting it. I do not mean this is a bad way in the least, different writers so obviously it was going to be different from the show in some way. But they did a good job with the characters. I must admit I bought it mainly for the art and I was not disappointed one bit :) The art is amazing and the colors are vivid and so well chosen. Also the covers of all issues at the end are beautiful. Many great artists there. Highly recommended, for kids and adults alike!

I love this! It has a lot of cute stories that play off the animated series. It provides "peeks" into Steven and the Gems lives between the animated episodes. I love this and can't wait for the next volume! It also includes the cover variations in the back which are beautiful to look at. The illustrations of the comics are great but the dialogue can be a bit hard to follow since the dialogue bubbles are a bit cluttered compared to other comic books. The content is not so serious that you need to follow the dialogue to the T though haha. It's great to have if you're a fan, or for future fans like your children or other young ones (both in age and at heart!) in your life.

Riedizione brossurata dei primi comic book di Steven Universe. Avventure diverse da quelle della serie animata ma ambientate nello stesso... universo! I disegni possono non essere apprezzati da tutti, sono in molti stili differenti, a colori o in bianco e nero, e a volte sembrano quasi fan art, ma il tentativo di espandere la narrazione è apprezzabile e soprattutto le splash pages con le copertine originali in fondo al volumetto rendono l'acquisto obbligatorio per gli appassionati di Steven!

Cette BD, est en réalité plein de petite histoire. Chacune autant adorable. Bien lorque l'on est fan de Steven Universe.

本編には全く関係のない、様々なイラストレーターが描くほのぼの日常エピって感じです 癒されました ジャスパー、ペリドット、ラピスは出てきません

An excellent light read for fans of the animation. I'm absolutely in love with the style of this comic - it has a distinctly indie feel which really suits the series. I was also really blown away by how the writers captured the voices and personalities of the cast - I could really hear their voices in my head while I read. The only thing that I feel I should say is that I don't think that someone who's unfamiliar with the series will get as much of a kick out of it. The trade largely collects one-short stories and so don't really contain reference to the larger plot of the cartoon. It also doesn't really explain who the Crystal Gems are or what their mission is and so people who are new to Steven Universe might be slightly put off by "Vacation" and "Open Mic". Yet if you're already a big fan of Steven Universe (like me) this comic is a must buy - I don't think you'll be disappointed.

Mein Freund hat sich riesig über den Comic gefreut. Super schön illustriert und wertiges Papier.
