Review by Devin C. Smith, 2010-06-06
Let me start off by saying I love this series and highly recommend it. Now here is the heart of the matter. I almost never write reviews simply because anything I'd like to say about a book has already been said before and usually better than I could have expressed. Here is my problem with this book and the reason I feel it important to share with you all. I literally finished this book 25 minutes ago and when I got to the last 6 or 7 pages THE DAMN COVER CAME OFF IN MY HANDS!!!! Now I'm sure alot of you will think this is a fluke or something, and normally so would I. Heres the kicker, the same thing happened to me a few months ago with another Image Comics trade paperback, POWERS "SUPERGROUP". So, please at least be aware before buying this or any other Image trade that these are pretty cheaply made and have weak ass binding. Happy reading all!

The Luna Brothers' epic "The Sword" is the sort of comic that fans will press on their non-comic reader friends.
It's that good.
It achieves that wonderful balance of being accessible to both people new to comics as well as the long term fans.
Plot? Magic sword causes havoc in present day USA. But it's so much more - the pacing and characterisation make this worth seeking out.
If your budget can manage it, buy all three volumes. You'll enjoy reading the chapters one after the other.
Those of us following comic have to wait a month between installments.
The original comic is currently working towards it's conclusion, so it's all waiting for you.
A word of caution - this is a comic about what a magic sword can do to people, so the violence is a level or two beyond what you may be expecting.
If you can get by that, you're in for one of the best reading experiences you're had in years.

I loved the first book in the series and I wasn't disappointed by this one. It might not have the grandios build that the first book had, but what can you do when this is the second in a four book piece (or is it three). Anyway, I would recommend it to anyone who read the first book and liked what they read.

To start out with, I've got to say that I'm not the biggest fan of the Luna Brothers. I read both "Girls" and "Ultra", which were good, but nowhere near as good as this. The only complaint that I have for all three,including "The Sword", is that all of the characters, both male and female look exactly the same. This is something that I feel that the Luna's really need to work on, but I guess I shouldn't judge since I'm not an artist. I am a writer however, and these guys have talent, which is truly displayed in this volume of "The Sword". I enjoyed this volume even better than the first, and I think this is because Dara starts taking some revenge on those that killed her family. I don't want to ruin this book for the people out there that haven't read it, but I do want to say that if you like adventure, magic, and aren't offended by a little gore, this is the title for you. Plus, the bond that Dara makes with her traveling companions is awesome as well. You don't get enough of that in graphic novels these days. I have found my new favorite title.
Peace and Love,
Jake
