Sword Volume 3: Earth

The Luna Brothers' epic "The Sword" is the sort of comic that fans will press on their non-comic reader friends. It's that good. It achieves that wonderful balance of being accessible to both people new to comics as well as the long term fans. Plot? Magic sword causes havoc in present day USA. But it's so much more - the pacing and characterisation make this worth seeking out. If your budget can manage it, buy all three volumes. You'll enjoy reading the chapters one after the other. Those of us following comic have to wait a month between installments. The original comic is currently working towards it's conclusion, so it's all waiting for you. A word of caution - this is a comic about what a magic sword can do to people, so the violence is a level or two beyond what you may be expecting. If you can get by that, you're in for one of the best reading experiences you're had in years.

Without a doubt this should be on your book shelf. The Luna brothers continue this comic in great way. Their ideas are fun and exciting. The Sword will continue to keep the reader guessing what happens next. The artwork is good, but the story telling remains fresh. You should definitely buy this book.
