Samurai Jack Makes a Welcome Return
There's just something about the Samurai Jack series that lends itself well to comics. Animation may be Jack's true home, but many of IDW's recent spinoffs have done a terrific job of replicating that tone and style on the printed page. Samurai Jack: Lost Worlds continues that trend. This first issue is a fun read for fans of the series, though the ending may leave you scratching your head.
This latest spinoff pairs writer Paul Allor (Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles) and artist Adam Bryce Thomas (Sonic the Hedgehog) for a new adventure that has Jack battling one of his fiercest enemies yet - himself. Jack emerges from his hermetic existence to find a town ruled by his own doppelganger - a man determined to school an entire populace in the ways of the samurai and preach a message of noble self-sacrifice. It isn't long before these two Jacks clash and the true nature of this doppelganger is revealed.
