Being called a freak isn’t so bad when you have a spunky little black blob as a companion. An explosion leaves Nam Kang orphaned, scarred, and nearly blind, but he toughs out the daily bullying with the help of his imaginary blob friend, Inky. Until one day, Nam wakes from a bad beating to find his scars healed and his vision restored. At a new school, Nam is finally given the chance to live life as a normal kid. But it isn’t just his scars that have disappeared. His best friend Inky is gone, too. (Source: WEBTOONS)

Being called a freak isn't so bad when you have a spunky little black blob as a companion. An explosion leaves Nam Kang orphaned, and the series opens on a boy who has learned to live with cruelty and with a strange companion nobody else can see. That premise is quietly unnerving and immediately engaging.The strength is the mystery. The supernatural companion is intriguing, and the questions about the explosion keep the story tense. The full-colour school setting is bright and easy to read.The weaknesses are clear. Bullying scenes are heavy, and the mystery can feel slow to unfold. Readers wanting a faster story may find the pacing patient.Recommended for readers who enjoy school mysteries with a supernatural twist. Expect a tense, heavy ride.
