This is a brilliant start to the new series. Brothers in Arms comes out swinging with its first issue and it's left my anticipation levels for the next instalment through the roof. I cannot recommend these comics enough, but if you're new to them then I can't think of a better one to start off with. Highly recommended. Read Full Review
Samurai: Brothers in Arms #1 rushes into feudal Japan, with you in toe. The writing is well researched, and enjoyable. Characters enjoy just enough depth for a beginning issue without feeling overbearing. The art takes what's imagined by Di Giorgio and gives you structure to be able to move forward in the story, even though some of the panels could have been handled better. Finally, the color is rich, while keeping to the traditions of what is thought to be used for a Japanese-inspired story. Samurai: Brothers in Arms #1 is a good enjoyable story, that will leave you happily expecting issue two. Read Full Review
