“Creed: The Next Round” #1 is crafted by Latoya Morgan, Jai Jamison, and Andworld Design, with Michael B. Jordan serving as the comic book’s creative director. Adonis and Bianca Creed continue to build their empire and expand their brand outside of the world of boxing. Meanwhile, Amara begins to follow in her father’s footsteps to become the next great boxer from the iconic Creed bloodline. Amara gets a major role increase in the comic, effectively turning into the main character of the series.
Overall, “Creed: The Next Round” does a great job expanding Amara’s character. Amara was born deaf, so she uses American Sign Language to speak with her mom and dad. Training with her father, Amara is the spitting image of her pops in the ring. She is uber-confident in her fighting abilities and eager to take the next step and fight more formidable opponents. Like her father, Amara loves the blood, sweat, and glory of the sport.
But despite her efforts to become the next great “Creed,” Donnie fears putting a target on her back in the ring due to her family’s legacy. Of course, this results in him urging her to slow down when all she wants to do is speed up. It’s a nice change of pace to see Creed evolve into a responsible parent, as Amara reminds him and Bianca of himself when he first started taking fighting seriously. The story does a fantastic job showing off Creed’s continued evolution into a caring father.
