I had a vague idea of at least what this title might be about, but I didn't have a clue as to just how much I was going to enjoy it. Stories like this grounded in reality tend to pique more interest and as scary as it is, this is very realistic. It's a good thing we don't have to wait anywhere near 200 years for the next issue, but it should be worth waiting a month. |

Vampblade: Season 2 #6 |
Oct 9, 2017 |
Perhaps I'm catching this at a bad time in the middle of the three titles that are brought together, but I had a hard time placing it with some current events. I've been eager to read this since it first got announced though, so I'm going to take it for what it is for now. Whether you're a fan of all three or just select titles that bring this squad together, it's a great ride for anyone to jump onto. |

Just when it seemed like this strange new team was beginning to come together, it all falls apart. That's a good thing though in the sense of the writing and building up their characters. Secretly I'm hoping that this divide doesn't last long and they reunite sooner rather than later. No matter the number of issues it takes though, everyone should stick around hoping as each book comes out for us to buy. |

I'd like to think that with Janey in her realm that it's going to be all over for Xula, but I should probably know better. I suppose that just means that we're just going to have to look forward to even more insane fights and great story. Isn't that just a shame that we have fantastic content ahead of us? Sarcasm aside, this is turning out to be one of if not the best arc yet and I can't wait to see the rest. |

It's been quite some time since I've done anything with this series and sadly not much has changed. The second book definitely helped me to not completely be disinterested, but all in all I just don't find myself as a fan of them. Once again, I'd say that this is likely only going to be worthwhile to people who like the show, but otherwise, leave it on the shelf for those folks. |

Even though this was slow to really grab my attention, by the last page it certainly managed to hold it. Now I want to know what Qora will choose to do, how that might affect those around her, and maybe how this world came to be. I have no problem waiting for the second book to learn about this, and after reading this, I don't think any others would either. |

So now the rest of us who never got these books originally know a bit more about why our Zombie Tramp is what she is. Seeing Xula this early on definitely makes things more interesting, especially with the timing of the ongoing books (which might not be a coincedence?) I can't wait to see the rest of this origin story as it finally gets to us and I'm sure many of you will feel the same. |

This was easily my favorite issue of the series so far, although I say that only being five books in.

I can't wait to see where it goes from here, and with no risk of being beat up to get it, everyone should be reading this. |

I have to say, I wasn't expecting to open this issue and be a little underwhelmed. As I said before, I think this is a bit of a precursor to DDS starting up, but as a Vampblade issue it wasn't the greatest. I do want to see where this goes though with it perhaps giving us more about the origins of the Blades. Hopefully upcoming chapters do a bit more, because I'm not sure how interested I'd be in more of these kinds of issues. |

From the very first issue that practically took me by the shirt and yanked me in, I have been very much a fan of this series. Early on, I was expecting a strong story, but I'd never have planned on it taking the very different path it did. In both the writing and the art, it is never afraid to go to some very dark corners and it makes for a killer book. I've seen some dark magical girl stuff in my time, and this sits up there as one of the darkest and the best. Anyone that has missed this has been missing a fantastic book, one that everyone should take the time to read. |

I love Garfield just as much as the next guy and I never complain when I can read another comic of his. Grumpy Cat, admittedly, is of little to no interest for me even as cute as her real inspiration is. I get that the pairing of them works, I just don't know that it was something I'd ever have wanted. It could produce an amusing enough story by the end but I'm personally not super eager for more. |

After all this time apart from Robotech, this was a great way to reconnect with it.

Hardcore Robotech fans would be the best judges of how worthy this is of reading, but even more casual fans of the series or mecha might be interested. |

The fighters have entered the area and the stage is set for the fight of the century. Ok, maybe that's overselling it, but the point is that we've got what should be an intense battle with very powerful characters ahead of us. I'm curious to see if Morning will actually pop in for this given her intervention so far. Whether or not she does, I'm anxious to see how this turns out, and you know you all want to get on this and see for yourselves as well. |

I had such a high level of expectations going into this last issue and let me tell you, they were more than met. The story wrapped up just how it should have, the creativity never dropped from how it started, and I finished reading with a sense of satisfaction. I'm not sure if I want the series to come back again so I can get more or have it permanently end here to maintain integrity. Regardless of what does happen, this is one title that I cannot recommend enough to readers to buy right away. |

With the exception of a few minor violent panels, the art for this issue was tame for Zombie Tramp.
