Titan Comics 'Samurai: Brother's in Arms' issue #2 is out tomorrow.



the story has a bit of an Amine-type vibe with the action as well as humor.
there are some moments that do remind me of some of classic Japanese Samurai cinema.
films like 'Yojimbo', 'Sword of Doom', & 'Lady Snowblood'

the series looked really beautiful since the very beginning.
with each volume i see the skills of artist Frédéric Genêt really progressing.



the art in this preview page below is particularly pretty! but it has a major spoiler if you aren't caught up with the previous volumes.

Spoiler:

Takeo has finally found his brother Akio.
i wasn't expecting his brother to be such a big jerk.


***update*** the new issue didn't post to my comixology account yet (cue dramatic music)
