Review: Enjoyable! I think that it sets the stage for the Valiant crossover of the armour wars quite nicely. We get to see Aric decide actions as a leader and hero, not as a King. Good reading. Review: Where we left off: After losing the X-O Manowar armor to Toyo Harada and the fledgling Unity team, Aric and his clan of Visigoths were imprisoned by the United States Military Extraterrestrial Reconnaissance Outpost (M.E.R.O). However, Unity quickly realized the unspoken threat of Harada having such power under his control, and promptly stole the armor back. Returning it to Aric, a deal was established – Aric would be an ally of Unity and, as a price for the freedom and security of his people, work at the behest of M.E.R.O. Volume 6 of X-O Manowar can best be described two books in one. The first gives us our first glimpse into Aric’s new paradigm with M.E.R.O and setting up the Armor Hunters event, and the second is supplemental material that was included as part of the 25th anniversary issue. The supplemental material was nice stuff, but not really my jam. It establishes the tradition Valiant has employed for all its titles reaching issue #25 – a shorter “main story”, and then several small tales that can range from a canonical story about the title to the very ridiculous. The main meat of this volume, though, is the introduction of the Armor Hunters. While Aric is attacked by the insane Malgam amidst the Vine wreckage orbiting Earth, we get glimpses of events occurring deeper in space, revelations about the true nature of the armor, and realization of the threat that is coming. All in all, I would judge this volume as a mixed bag. Regardless, I consider it essential reading for any fan of X-O Manowar or anyone interested in reading the Armor Hunters event.
