X-O Manowar Volume 2: Enter Ninjak by Robert Venditti
I have a lot to thank Humble Bundle for: I wasn't familiar with Valiant when the first bundle I bought came out, but I thought it was inexpensive enough to give a chance. I ended up enjoying all the characters I had read about, and can't think of a single one I wouldn't like to read more about.
It would have fallen flat if the art or plots had been terrible, but I found them enjoyable as well.
On earth, long after his family and people are dead, Aric is a Visigoth lost in time. But at least he has armor - although the armor comes from an alien race and they worship it as sacred and are very, very mad that it chose to bond with a human...
So things aren't as good as they could be, and they get worse when Ninjak is hired to kill Aric and bring his armor back to the English authorities. It's a fun ride and I really enjoy seeing Aric and Ninjak together in a book. It's also what I needed after a very stressful day: it's light in that I didn't have to do all that much deep thinking.
