With each passing issue, Matt Kindt's Ninjak only gets stronger. Read Full Review

Ninjak #8 is not what you expect at all t first glance and for that reason one of the more favorable of the series so far. An issue that shakes things up from what before was the normal formula. And adds a little urgency to the situation knowing MI:6 is not very patient with Colin's methods right now. Read Full Review

Ninjak #8 is an engrossing issue due to its character development and expansion of the world and influence of the Undead Monk. Fitz is an interesting character although the end result with his situation isn't nearly as intriguing as he is. And the second story chronicling Ninjak's journey and training with the Undead Monk is gripping and intense. So even though Weaponeer as a whole doesn't come off as a more intimidating organization, Ninjak's world is such an entertaining one that Weaponeer seems like a small part of it. Read Full Review

Ninjak's focus on Fitz's story works well enough and is made more interesting than it might normally be thanks to Segovia's artwork and layouts. We get a good trip around the world, meet some interesting characters and end up at the undead monk all over again. I also really enjoyed the backup story, what little real story there is to it, as it shows us some of Colin's training there with the things he had to survive and surmount. While the story is obvious and kept simple, it's Juan Jose Ryp's artwork that just elevates it with a great kind of grittiness that makes it feel very earthy and raw as it should. Ninjak has a damn good installment here, but it's one that feels like it should have been spread over two or three issues with more meat given to it and a chance to breath more. Read Full Review

Overall, another solid piece of the Shadow Wars arc and an exciting piece of Ninjak's story. Read Full Review

If you're not reading Ninjak, then I doubt I'll have convinced you at this point to check it out. Which is a shame since I don't read too many superhero books and this is one of the best out there, period. But if you're looking for a fresh superhero book that puts all other "spy books" to shame then you need look no further than Valiant's Ninjak. Read Full Review

Ninjak #8is another solid comic from one of the best publishers around right now.If do want to start readingaboutValiant‘s purple clad ninja, then this may not be the best comic to start with – it is in the middle of a story, and while you can certainly pick issue #8 up and enjoy it as the first comic you read in the arc, you may want to start with issue #6, as you may pick up some details about The Shadow Wars during the last two issues that'll allow yo to enjoy the later issues a bit more. Either way, thestory arc is worth reading. Read Full Review

Tales of the lost and of those searching for who they are even as they run away from it coupled with bombast and swagger, Ninjak remains both as cool and as deceptively intricate as ever. This issue suffers from a poor artistic pairing, as each of those creators are unquestionably talented, but simply couldnt quite get on the same page here. It holds Ninjak #8 from being truly great, but be assured that the clever mix of horror, science fiction, and espionage is well worth your time as we dig ever deeper into the psyche of that hurt little British boy who grew up to be the foremost ninja assassin who takes out guys with chimpanzee butlers. Getting to write sentences like that is worth the price of admission alone. Read Full Review
