The series has not disappointed since its debut in March. This sixth issue continues the strong output that has been provided thus far. I challenge anyone to find a stronger, better written ongoing series today. This is truly a must read for any fan of hero or fantasy comics. Read Full Review
X-O MANOWAR #6 puts political intrigue and conspiracy on the front-lines as it transitions the series from battle epic to strategic thriller. Read Full Review
Much as the first Ultimate Spider-Man story arc took several issues to build to Uncle Ben's inevitable death, X-O Manowar has been taking its sweet time to arrive at the reunion between Aric and his alien suit. That methodical build-up only adds to the book's gravity and emotional weight. But crucially, as methodical as Matt Kindt is being in this area, he's blazing forward in terms of the larger narrative.

Ultimately, if you want to get your hands on a wonderfully illustrated character driven story then you could do a lot worse than X-O Manowar. Read Full Review
This issue slows things down which is understandable. It does feel like it's slowed down too much. It could have been a little faster paced, just a little bit. There's very little action but what is there is well done. It's a decent issue though, and promises some big things happening in future issues. X-O Manowar # 6 a 8.5 out of 10. Read Full Review

The story is too recursive, the supporting characters thinner than the paper they're printed on, and a key element of the art was very confusing. I'll be back of issue seven, though, and with any luck, these problems will be sorted by then. Dr. J gives this a" Read Full Review
The end of one arc that sets up for an even bigger arc... Matt Kindt is KING, Braithwaite's art is incredible, and this is going to be my favorite book for as long as Valiant keeps their top talent on it.
Aric just wouldn't be Aric if he thought the consequences of his actions through before acting.
Looks to be setting up for an intense arc.
