Reading Notes: Week 5

I decided to choose the comic books for my reading and my first one was Rama retold from the Ramayana and it mainly focused on the Rama side of the story to the Ramayana. It talked through how Rama became who he was and it started out in his younger years. He was born with his brother and they continue to talk about the same story that we read last week. Rama and Lackshmana being training and fighting opponents that become no match for them. They are defeating many opponents and that starts to create some bad guys that don't like the pair. As they are making enemies of others that list keeps growing by talk amongst the people. This is where Ravana comes with the golden deer to sucker Sita into the trap by making Rama leave her side. Hanuman is guarding Sita but his tail is caught on fire making Lanka catch on fire. This forces the whole town to go into turmoil and making it possible for Sita to be saved after she was kidnapped by Ravana. Ravana refuses a peace offering sent by Rama and this leads to Rama coming in with full force to save his wife. Rama is finally able to kill Ravana by shooting him in his naval and thus killing him completely. Rama is finally made king after all and he has won his battles.
