After I have received lebih issues of that comic book series, I decided to write this artikel to tell anda about my opinion on that series. I remember discovering this series back when I was a child when I used to have a few of copies of a magazine that contained various comic book stories from various children's media including Maya the Bee as one of them and I have managed to read only a few stories of that series which I was disappointed that I didn't get to see lebih of this version as many years have passed, but after I officially became a Maya the Bee peminat in late 2020, I bought my first copies of the earliest issues of the magazine which all of them were in my native language and I read all of them and I enjoyed them a lot. Many of these stories that I have read were so fun that I ended up to enjoy them lebih than Disney comics because of how expressive the characters were and how many comical/funny moments were featured in them. Now as for the Disney comics, I used to be obsessed with them since I was a child along with other comics from other cartoon franchises such as Little Lulu, Popeye, Looney Tunes, Garfield, Woody Woodpecker, Tom and Jerry, Scooby-Doo and The Flintstones which I also enjoyed them, but I was lebih into Disney comics myself. I have read stories from almost all of the Disney comics universes, not just the Mickey tetikus and Donald Duck/Uncle Scrooge ones, but also the ones featuring Chip 'n' Dale, Bambi, Seven Dwarfs, Big Bad Wolf, Li'l Wolf, Three Little Pigs, Brer Rabbit, Brer Fox, Brer Bear, Jiminy Cricket, Scamp, Little Hiawatha and Bucky Bug. While I enjoyed Disney comics overall, but after looking back at them, I found almost all of them to be "bland" 'cause of the storylines being not keseluruhan that well-written (not including the ones sejak Floyd Gottfredson, Carl Barks and Don Rosa as those were actually very well-written) atau the lack of menunjukkan other feelings besides happiness, sadness, anger and fear as I rarely have found Disney stories that shows some characters crying for example which comparing the facial expressions from Disney comics to the one from the Bastei Maya the Bee comics, the characters in the Maya the Bee comics are lebih expressive and have lebih of personalities in them which is something that I wish for Disney comics to have lebih of that, but the most expressive Disney comics that I have read were mostly the itik comics sejak Don Rosa as he made a great job at making the characters lebih expressive, even though, he started working on Disney comics because of Carl Barks who was known to have created the itik universe/Duckburg and the characters Scrooge McDuck, giro, giroskopik Gearloose, Magica De Spell, Gladstone sebentar, jantina and the beagle Boys which if it weren't for him, he wouldn't work on Disney comics at all. Now let's go back to talk about the Maya the Bee comics. After I got my first issues, I started collecting lebih of them starting from January 2021 where I got my first German issue that was the 58th one which was the one where I have learned lebih about the existence of the Queen tawon, wasp and her tawon, wasp guards which I first saw them in the game "Garden Adventures" before I found out that they existed in this comic book series and seen Schimmy the silverfish for the first time while Membaca the story as I didn't knew that he actually existed as a Maya the Bee character as I never saw him appearing in other Maya the Bee related media besides the comics before. For other characters, Paul the ant was featured in as an ant soldier in the oldest stories, but in the later/newer stories, he became an ant general just like in the Studio 100 series and merchandise related to the Nippon animasi series, the Queen bee plays lebih of a major role than she had in the Nippon animasi series, other characters who never appeared in the Nippon animasi series such as the colonel bee, Oscar the earwig, the Queen tawon, wasp and her tawon, wasp guards were featured as characters in this series. The series itself is lebih light-hearted comparing to the Nippon animasi series, but some of dark themes were presented in it such as Schnuck the dragonfly getting eaten sejak a ikan and the ants of the amazonian tribe have attacked the ants from Paul's tribe to take their takhta which many of them were badly injured as their helmets and their bodies were "torn-off" before Maya have managed to fool the amazonian Queen ant sejak setting a trap with the help of an antlion who ended up fallen herself into the trap which this caused her to give the crown that she have stolen from the Queen ant of Paul's tribe back to Maya and after that, the good Queen ant got her crown back from Maya and the amazonian ant tribe were defeated. Well, that story about the amazonian ant tribe was one of the "darkest" stories that I have read from that series, not only how the good ants were attacked sejak the amazonian ants, but also because of the sad moments where Maya felt sorry about the good Queen ant who also was suffered sejak the attack that she ended up crying lebih than once before she found the right solution to defeat the amazonian ant tribe. So yes, this series does have a few dark themes in it, but comparing to the Studio 100 series which is lebih light-hearted, it barely have any dark themes as the series itself was made to appeal to younger children, but it's still one of the most light-hearted series out of all other Maya the Bee related media. Overall, I enjoyed this series as much as both animated series sejak Nippon animasi and Studio 100 despite of it being the lebih obscure one out all of them, but I hope this version gets lebih recognition in the future as lebih peminat-peminat discovers about it and other stuff related to the Maya the Bee franchise.
