“SIX SHOOTER ON THE SEVEN SEAS,” Conclusion

Somebody DIES! Or, everyone DIES! There’s lots of DYING! Oh man, it’s some kind of DEATH-fest goin’ around. It’s all epic and brutal and a major character DIES so you better order a ho-jillion copies. No, seriously, someone DIES. Big DEADING in the house. Also: The end of our incredible third story arc. Sweet.

“Skullkickers is still exciting, hilarious, and engaging, and continues to blow every other humor book on the shelves out of the water.”
- Walter Richardson, Multiversity Comics

RoughJustice at Geeks of Doom has a spoiler-free review of our game-changing Skullkickers #14 and is suitably impressed with our big reveal.

“issue 14 provides satisfying reveals and brings up more than a few new mysteries involving Shorty and Baldy. Writer Jim Zub doesn’t throw out mysteries just for the sake of confounding readers either. Every plot twist feels natural to the stories progression in a way that promises huge things on the horizon.”…

“Skullkickers #14 does more than provide long awaited answers. It further proves that this is a creative team at the top of their game.”

Peter Svensson at Bleeding Cool has an excited but spoiler-free rundown of Skullkickers #14 and the potential for it take the series to new heights.

“Skullkickers 14 is one of those rare issues that make you go back and reread everything with a new understanding. There are precious few comics that can pull that sort of reveal off. I never would have thought that Skullkickers would be one of them.”…”It’s high-octane fantasy action-adventure with humor and gorgeous art.”

Aaron Long at Comicosity has one of the first reviews of Skullkickers #14. He keeps it spoiler-free but lets everyone know how much he enjoyed the ride.

“Skullkickers is what all adventure comics should be.”…”Great script, great art, great issue.”

Nominations for the 2012 Joe Shuster Canadian Comic Book Awards are out and Skullkickers writer Jim Zub is nominated in the ‘Outstanding Writer’ category for his work on the Skullkickers second story arc.

Winners won’t be announced until mid-September, so we’ll hold off finger crossing until the end of the summer but we’re excited to see how it goes!
