  This story is a real success in my book for Samurai Jack. I wasn't that into this comic, but reading about Jack's quest to mend his sword has made the comic worth the price. I shall be keeping up with the story and you should start reading this comic as well. It is easy to pick up, and with an ending like that, you have to experience Samurai Jack just once.

  As always, Andy Suriano is the artist here, with colours by Josh Burcham and letters by Shawn Lee. With this being the end to another arc from this trio, we see some of their best work to date. I know, I know, I say this a lot, but then that's the thing. They are a damn solid team when working together so they deserve all the praise that they (can) get. The scenes with Jack standing up to Aku, and then defying him with the help of the cosmic beings who have found him worthy, those scenes are incredibly stirring as a reader. They give you a punchy thrill. Read Full Review

  I have some friends who simply hated Samurai Jack. It's a brand of storytelling that not everyone here in the States warms up to, but for those of us who enjoyed the animated series, the comic is a gift from the Cartoon Network gods. Oh, and IDW Publishing as well! Read Full Review

  This issue wraps up the extended "Samurai Jack and the Quest of the Broken Blade" story arc, which was seen the series rise up and achieve its true potential. The finale doesn't disappoint as it depicts the latest fateful clash between Jack and Aku. Read Full Review

  With the arc complete Jack has earned the sword bequeathed to him by his father all those years ago, but still stuck in Aku's demented future our hero is no closer to finding a path home. His quest, it seems, will continue. Worth a look. Read Full Review
