Ninjak, Volume 2: The Shadow Wars by Matt Kindt

3.0


3.5 stars if Goodreads would let me.

Mooooar Ninjas. Mooooooar.

This was a fun arc. It had Ninjak going off the grid and tracking down members of the Shadow Seven. Each issue Ninjak battles a new warrior trained by the Undead Monk.

There's some badass Ninja fighting and, all in all, I got a kick outta this comic as much as I did with the first volume.

The art in this one was kind of all over the place. There was more than one artist involved and some of it I loved and some of it...not so much.

What I really like so far with Ninjak is that it's not getting all caught up with the rest of the Valiant universe. At least not yet anyways. I don't need to read 6 or 7 other books so I can understand what is happening in this one. It's a common problem I have with Valiant. It's refreshing to read a title from them that is easy to understand all on its own.

That said, so far with Ninjak, there really isn't all that much that I need to understand. Its pretty straight forward and maybe even a little bit to simple.

Ninja. Sword. Kill.

I'm okay with that, though. Ninja. Sword. Kill. is kind of fun to read about. :)

Hee-Yah, motherfuckers!
