X-O Manowar #6 throws our hero into a rare situation where he's not in full control and nobody knows what is really going on. The creative team is doing a good job establishing a dilemma for a hero who relies heavily on his suit and throwing him up against a weird sci-fi dilemma. It's an issue that feels like it blends Iron Man and Swamp Thing in its technological sci-fi weirdness. Read Full Review

Ultimately, despite the hiccup/s in the book, X-O Manowar #6 is still a solid read. It's not going to be a definitive X-O Manowar story that will be recommended above all others (at least from what I can tell so far), but it's a story that I'm enjoying nonetheless. I'm still hopeful that the comic will reach new highs, just as I'm hoping that the tech billionaire will soon be a memory – that I've got a genuine dislike of the character is a testament to the writing; because when Dennis “Hopeless” Hallum is good, he's really good.

Thats a shame when you consider the work the art team is putting in to produce a visually engaging comic. Read Full Review
