This means war!
The alien-armored warrior called X-O Manowar once commanded the most formidable army the alien world of Gorin had ever known. Now, his comrades have been forsaken, his crown has been commandeered, and his power has been rejected by the very subjects he once ruled. But he still has his sword...and a never-ending furnace of fury drawn from deep within...
The end of X-O Manowar's year-long conquest at the farthest reaches of the Valiant Universe draws near - and a powerful new beginning awaits - as New York Times best-selling writer Matt Kindt (ETERNITY) and astonishing artist Ryan Bodenheim (The Dying & The Dea more
0COMMENTSX-O Manowar #13 serves as a satisfying conclusion to Matt Kindt's year-long arc, while also setting up an epic homecoming that will have a major impact on the Valiant Universe moving forward. Read Full Review
Arics adventures on Gorin have wrapped up nicely and timely, it would have been easy to keep this story going to the point of overstaying its welcome but Kindt is way too good of a writer to let that happen. Read Full Review
There's one thing I look forward to, it's an action-packed issue of X-O Manowar. I've appreciated this character since the 90's. I think we haven't seen anything yet as far as Aric & Shanhara are concerned. Read Full Review
X-O Manowar #13 is a high-flying and epic finale to Arics time on Gorin, and its jam-packed with emotional weight, exciting action, and solid artwork. Matt Kindt'srun on this character continues to impress. Bodenheim and Dalhouse's artwork is solid too. This one gets a recommendation. Check it out. Read Full Review
X-O Manowaris a space epic with a deeply personal story about a man finding himself, and, thankfully, the final issue is a nigh on perfect cap on a great first year. We've had thirteen issues, four story arcs and one amazing story. I can't wait to see what's next. Read Full Review
I have never been disappointed with one issue of the current run of X-O, and I have no doubt that this trend will continue. Read Full Review
With the final panels showing Aric asking his armour, Shanhara, not to speak and flying off towards the sun, seemingly showing an attempt to return to Earth, Im keen to see how this next leg of his journey turns out! Read Full Review
This issue reveals some much needed character development to keep things interesting as this plot line loses its spark. The character development is great, but the climax is very lackluster.
I didn’t really care for the fight sequence. Expected more from XO Manowar.
