The Doctor asks, “Is there ‘No Need for Bushido’?”

NNFBJay Slay, the Doctor

No need for Bushido isn’t my type of comic, namely because it’s a long and involved storyline, but it definitely wasn’t bad, per se. The artwork was good and improved as time went on, and the story was interesting and funny , although replete with not only bone-jarringly obvious cliche, but also about every trope known to man(at least what I read of it was, anyway - the archives were a bit lengthy for me). I didn’t really see anything that was a big let down or would make me want to warn people away, aside from some slight nudity and a LOT of blood. Perhaps if you’re under 12 or so, you should consider reading something else.

Overall, I’d say a decent effort and worth reading if you have enough time to go through the entire archive.

Yeah, I know the review is short, too. Get used to it.

The Doctor - the definite article, you might say.

    Delos said my review was “succinct” — but I bow to the Master of brevity!

  2. The Doctor Says:

    Bow to the master of “Ran out of ways to flesh out a review when short and sweet would do just as well!”

    El Santo and I exchanged places this time, I suspect….

  3. Larry Cruz Says:

    Don’t worry. Next time I’ll try to be so ultra-succinct, it will blow your mind.

  4. Anthony Cardno Says:

    Please don’t! My mind is blown enough already ….

  5. Delos Woodruff Says:

    Wait a minute.

    Are we supposed to do ultra long narratives worth framing or succinct reviews? It sounds like Larry and Doc are getting into some kind of competition.

    Doc: “I can review that comic in three sentences.”

    Larry: “Two! Two sentences.”

    Doc: (Thinking to self) “I can probably do it in one, but it’s nice to have one sentence to sign off the review with.” (Out loud) “Fine. Do your worst.”

    :)
    Short and sweet is what’s called for sometimes.
