review - https://youtu.be/49FSaFdFQlgThis is some weird, hardcore sci-fi here. It's supposedly influenced by the European comics of the time like Metal Hurlant and was released in 1983, a year before the seminal Dark Knight Returns. It starts off as this story of a ronin and a demon reincarnated in the far future (even if it's referenced as the 21st century). The book is really bogged down by droning dialogue and poor coloring. I know Frank Miller is supposed to have done no wrong in the 70's and 80's but there's a reason this has
This was absolutely fantastic, a mindbending, ecelectic mix of a Lone Wolf and Cub style Samurai epic, thrown in with a little bit of 2001: A Space Odyssey, with a pinch of demonic horror, just for good measure. All wrapped up in Frank Miller's first original outing, a story for which I find incredibly hard to believe I went this long without hearing any praise.It follows a dishonored, masterless, 13th century Japanese warrior, a Ronin, who has failed his master in battle, leaving the Ronin to
Our lives are as fragile and as brief as a cherry blossom's. And as fragrant.
Just ok... I don't understand how some reviews are just dying over the art work. It looked as if a 12 year old drew it. Seriously. There were some decent scenes but that's about it. To compare this work to Sin City or DKR is just ludicrous. I hear they are making a movie of it which should be pretty cool. Just don't read this thinking you're gonna be nail biting it every page like Sin City or staring at amazing art like in DKR. Just good. Sketchy storyline.
Frank Miller; One of the legends of the comic industry. If asked what my favourite Frank Miller book is, you would probably expect me to say The Dark Knight Returns or The 300. You might think it's Sin City. Excellent as those are, you would be wrong on all counts. I think Ronin is his best ever work. It's stunning and brilliant on so many levels. It would make a wonderful film, starting in Muromachi period Japan and moving to a dystopian futuristic USA. Everyone should read it.
Art wise not near the high levels of his seen in Sin City,The Dark Knight Returns,Daredevil,300.
