The Lone Ranger and Tonto are back. For those that have never read a Lone Ranger comic, this is extremely accessible. There is plenty of Old West action as the Lone Ranger is determined to hand out justice the way he knows how. In coming in to save the day, we get to see some of the motivation that drives him to be a hero. You do get a sense of the isolation in the Old West. This works in conveying what life was like for some but also gave the book a slightly isolated feel and felt a little convenient when the Lone Ranger managed to show up at the right time. As the first part of a new arc, it's a little difficult to see how it will tie into a bigger story as this felt pretty self-contained but that could be the hook in seeing how it all fits together and ties back to the Lone Ranger's personal life. If you've been interested in the Lone Ranger, here's your chance to jump into the action. Read Full Review
"The Lone Ranger" is a character entrenched in society as a virtue, a caricature, and this issue plays him as such and is all the better for it. Delving into the world, and the worldview, of this time and place gives me a better sense of this title than hearing any speeches about justice every could. If you like a tidy western yarn then this tale, which feels done in one, is just for you. It'll break your heart and make you feel. Read Full Review
