Anyone who hasn't been reading a long might be completely lost as far as how this book concludes, but at the same time this issue contains everything that's made this series good in the last few. Save for the exceptionally hilarious introduction in the first issue, this issue tops them all. There's a conclusion, a ton of incredible layouts and plenty of detailed art that rivals anything that came before it. Read Full Review

Never before has tearing through a hoard of tattooed, bug infested, naked zombies with one's fists looked as easy. Both "the Cowboy" and Geof make the effort involved look natural. And once again I am completely blown away by the amount of detail penciled on each page. It is just astonishing. Read Full Review

As a whole Shaolin Cowboy is much more than beautiful artwork, and is most certainly not devoid of storytelling. Through an augmentation of traditional sequential storytelling, Darrow creates a narrative reliant on the reader pulling their own individual thoughts from the pages. What we see in the story is a matter of what we allow ourselves to see on the page. It is one of the most unique and intriguing comics you will ever read, and will train you to rethink the way you read comics. Read Full Review

Our Cowboy is really hands-on in this chapter, popping heads, faces, and everything else off of these walking corpses. You really see the path our hero makes through all the bodies. Darrow is the preeminent artist when it comes to details and you get every single one of them in this series. Why are they all naked? Did this zombie outbreak start at a nudist colony? Food for thought for another day. This series makes me try to read into the actions more closely than anything actually said. Actions are the words for Shaolin Cowboy. Thats the impression that I get. Read Full Review

Again, the art is really the only redeeming factor to justify a purchase to people who've liked this series. It is incredibly impressive how much Geof Darrow fits into each panel and each page. But does that make up for the fact that there was barely any story or any real reason to want to keep reading Shaolin Cowboy after the first issue? Personally, I think not. Read Full Review

The Shaolin Cowboy was a mess. I desperately wanted it to be good and afforded it the benefit of the doubt at every turn, but here at the end, it just doesn't hold up. The action in this comic is jumbled and boring, with only a couple cool moments, but in general there's so much of it to desensitize you to those moments. The cowboy has no character, so there's very little investment in his fate, and as a result, the action has no tension or urgency. The artwork is occasionally nice, but generally tries to work in way too much and comes off cluttered; I don't recommend it, and the whole the series feels like it's wasting your time.
