Valiant's X-O Manowar #2 Sends New Characters To War

Valiant's new X-O Manowar series certainly hasn't skimped on the action —a trait that likely helped its first issue sell 90,000 copies and become the highest-selling comic outside of the Big Two in 2017 so far.

So it's no surprise then, that today's X-O Manowar #2 from writer Matt Kindt and artist Tomas Giorello doubles down with a whole platoon of new characters for X-O Manowar to lead into battle.

And war they do wage, with a mission that leaves more than a few scars on X-O Manowar's new team.

Of course, being the loyal soldier that he is, X-O Manowar would never leave an ally behind in the battlefield.

But would X-O Manowar take a bullet (or grenade) for his new brothers-in-arms? Of course he would…

…especially when he has his Shanhara armor to protect him.

But will these alien soldiers' mission report be a positive one? With X-O Manowar on the battlefield, it does seem rather likely.

X-O Manowar #2 is on sale today from Valiant Entertainment.
