It's funny. The main story in this titled is named "Metal" and while good is the weakest part for me. The two other stories here which one focuses on just a one shot of travelers going to a new land and ending up with a nice twist. The second is at the end when a old man fishing in the icelands finds a dead girl under the ice. This started off mehish but by the end I really felt some strong emotional moments hitting here.

The main story here focuses on a Viking slaughtering every Christian he sees. When he meets a nun who is abused by the order he decides to take matters in his own hands and kill everyone near her. Once that happens they send more and more christians out to meet him and kill him. That doesn't turn out well till they send a hunter of sorts to retrieve the Christian killer.

What I liked: Loved the one shot at the start. It also helps the art was done by Fiona Staples. I also REALLY like the ending to the girl in the ice arc at the end. Very powerful. The Metal storyline stays interesting and some great moments but overall the pacing was a bit iffy.

What I didn't like: The main issue with Metal is it got to "God" like. Powers, witchcraft, things began to come into play I didn't care for. Also the wrap up was far to neat for this series and felt out of place.

I really enjoyed the ending and beginning of this so much and Metal was solid enough to bump this to a 4. I'd say Volume 1 and 4 are still the best but this was a fine addition to this series. Very few bad stories throughout this long series, which is very very refreshing to see.
