I think we as a Filipino society have been sleeping on this masterpiece for far too long. I don't even think this gets nearly as much praise and attention as Tan and Baldisimo's Trese when it deserves paralleled adulation. Mythology Class is incredibly rich in story, with flawed and funny characters you can't help but root for, and runs at a breakneck pace that will have you turning page after page despite being dialogue-heavy. The artwork is astounding too—blending a nostalgic classic style with a more modern approach when it comes to the fantastical elements. I mean, wow, reading this was like watching a movie!! Highly, highly recommended!
