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.
A great story and really well drawnReviewed by Shea Morgan, 2009-10-18
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.
Very EntertainingReviewed by Jacob Cowell, 2009-03-11
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
