    Overall, this was a far better issue than I was expecting. The story was definitely a big surprise, and I honestly have zero complaints about it. Zero. None. Read Full Review

    Nerds On The Rocks - Lenny Wojt Mar 18, 2014

    The art team of Brittney Williams and Josh Burcham is charming and charismatic. Williams follows the typical design and structure that Samurai Jack is known for but she adds a dash of her own style in the form of geometric shapes and eye-guiding backgrounds that force you to explore each panel. Panel designs and layouts have vast variation and keep the story moving nicely. Her characters are explosive and expressive giving them an animated, kinetic feel. Burchams colors continue to be communicative and emotional as he proceeds to blend hues and fill the issue with the spectrum of the rainbow. From subtle to bold, these pages grab your eyes.

    Samurai Jack #6 is a great start for the new story arc. It is all setup for the story going forward and is very new reader friendly. With a welcomed return of a fan favorite character, it is not one to be missed. Read Full Review

    Comic Book Therapy - Cody "The Thorverine" Ferrell Mar 19, 2014

    Jim Zub ends one big and dramatic storyline and starts a new one up that is just as big, but a little funnier. Zub has a great handle on the characters and he's been joined by some great artists, so Samurai Jack has been a book that consistently delivers. Read Full Review

    Razorfine - Alan Rapp Mar 25, 2014

    The return of The Scotsman (whatever his current form) and the unique nature of the story set-up what should be one of Jack's more memorable adventures (with some nice art by Brittney Williams). Worth a look. Read Full Review

    Unleash The Fanboy - Harrison Rawdin Mar 18, 2014

    Samurai Jack #6 is not a revolutionary release, but it successfully carries the torch of my childhood without sacrificing what made the original show a must watch for the young version of me. Recommended. Read Full Review
