The coolest opening page to a comic book ever? Maybe not the coolest ever, but definitely very cool. It states “one simple law prevails: if you let your guard down for an instant you will soon be very dead.” Yes, that’s right, very dead, not just dead, but very dead. I find that fascinating.

This comes on the first page of The Warlord #53.

So, thanks to Jason Zapata Wordsmith’s constant badgering, I finally picked up the book that started it all for him; The Sword of Shannara by Terry Brooks. He’s been telling me for years about the series and I finally broke down and bought it and then I started to read.

The book is great and as I didn’t just purchase one book, I purchased the trilogy as a whole, so I will be reading the rest.
