    The second arc of Five Weapons has been a blast so far and with the intense and enthralling developments in this issue I can't wait to see what happens next. Highly recommended. Read Full Review

    I just can't recommend FIVE WEAPONS enough. Jimmie Robinson has taken what could be a very graphic, dark and mature concept and handles it in a way that makes it appealing to readers of all ages. It's a book about kids who want to become assassins, yet it has a delightfully pleasant tone, a diverse and unique cast of characters, and a wonderfully fun and animated set of visuals. Throw in a consistently clever script and the result is a title that has continued to impress me since its very first issue. This should be a mandatory purchase for my fellow FIVE WEAPONS fans; however, if you're considering finally diving into this world, this is by no means an ideal jumping on spot. Read Full Review

    Five Weapons is a fantastic read. While the dialogue and the reactions of characters is sometimes clunky and clich, the overall concept and suitably mysterious machinations of characters other than Enrique keep it running at a good pace. The mood is fun, Tyler is an excellent rival, and it is amusing to see Enrique playing a high stakes Dr. House lite. I'll be waiting for this title next month, wearing a grin. Read Full Review
