Jimmie Robinson’s ‘Five Weapons’ #1: Killer Execution, Satisfying Package [Review]
By David Brothers
The short version: Jimmie Robinson’s Five Weapons is a textbook example of how to create a first issue that leaves readers wanting more as soon as possible. Robinson introduces the main character, uses his unfamiliarity with the setting as an excuse to drop a lot of information on us, gives us brief and evocative descriptions of the cast, seeds a few mysteries, delivers a good amount of action, and then leaves you wanting more. It’s a good comic, with an absurd idea played perfectly straight for a setting, with a good protagonist. The art is engaging and the story shows promise. It’s well worth your time.
