X-O Manowar #21

At the end of the day, if you have been reading this series, then you're going to love what you've seen so far. If you haven't, then there's only two or three issues you'd need to pick up in order to catch up fully with this comic (though you could probably read this as a starting point and be fine) – and I genuinely recommend that you check this out. X-O Manowar is a superbly entertaining series that questions the nature of freewill, purpose and even heroism. It shouldn't be left on the comic shop racks. Read Full Review

X-O Manowar #21 was another issue that was well worth the wait. The Unknown is a well of untapped potential in storytelling, and this story arc is so far taking full advantage of it. This is the kind of havoc that one can wreak when messing with forces they should not know how to comprehend. You thought I was probably going to say can't, but that's not the case for this Cartographer. Read Full Review

The first issues of this storyline were slow boiling and served to set the stage for our current problems. What is most compelling about this issue is how large of a jump we have from backstory to battle. Aric going toe to toe with a monstrous bear isn't so bad either. Now that all the players are assembled on the stage we get a much clearer idea of where this story is taking us, and we won't be upset. Read Full Review

This is still a good book, I just think it needs a new writer and a new direction so we can really see Aric being X-O Manowar. Read Full Review

I'm loving the dudes in the gas masks, can we give them a spinoff? There's also plenty of fun to be had watching Aric mangle some weird druid-hippy cult.
