Grim Ketsuko and bumbling Fubei have agreed to lead the arrogant ronin through the woods and over the mountain. But death walks freely in the night, as the dishonored samurai are stalked by shadows of the Black Tongue ninja--and a devil who walks among them.
Smoothing away most of the problems I had with the first issue, the second installment here is a stronger read overall and makes for a more engaging story. The pieces feel more distinct at this point and the way they all come together to tell the two separate yet connected stories in past and present ups the interest level. I really like seeing what Ketsuko is capable of her and that she's taking quite the beating at times but still standing, while also enjoying what Fubei brings to the page while wondering if she may truly be something else by the end. Good stuff all around and this really scratches a particular itch that will make some readers into huge fans. Read Full Review
THE DEVIL'S RED BRIDE #2 slices a path of bloody carnage on the trek through the mountainside. The art grabs your attention and the story continues to build a fully fleshed out world ripe for the killing. This is a highly recommended issue. Read Full Review
Girner has crafted one heck of a story and now that I’ve seen a bit more of the fantastic elements, I can’t wait for the next issue. I especially enjoyed the visuals this time around and look forward to seeing more of Ketsuko’s story. Read Full Review
