This slim, oversized volume is fast and furious fun, mixing fantasy and sports in a distinct and refreshing way. Showing a mix of influences from European comics and Japanese manga, Bosma’s panels are bustling and lively with their propulsive use of sound effects and motion lines. Although it’s the third volume in the series, it is a great jumping-in point for new readers, although assume most will seek out the previous volumes for more adventures in this quirky and exciting world. A hole-in-one.—Kirkus ReviewsIf you’re looking for comics for a younger audience, or to read with a child, this series is a great pick; kids will love the bright colors and stunning graphics of this series. But personally, as an adult, I also found this comic adorable and entertaining.—SyfyFantasy Sports 3: The Green King is continuing the tale that has us wonder what sport will be next and how it will go from something mere-mortals play to those with magic will make more fun. Another adventure that makes me wish I had a dog that carried a knife in its mouth.—Things To Do In L.A.
