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

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….

Don’t worry. Next time I’ll try to be so ultra-succinct, it will blow your mind.
July 11th, 2008 at 11:25 pm
Please don’t! My mind is blown enough already ….

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.
