Rating: 5/5
This is another crossover book from Dynamite. It features the hero from Django Unchained and Zorro. The pairing works really well if you enjoy Western style stories. Their personalities play off each other fantastically and the writing is great.
Their meeting occurs in the wilderness and appears random at first. Zorro recruits Django to act as his bodyguard as he investigates a man who claims the title Archduke of Arizona. The backstory behind the Archduke is interesting and helps drive the plot. Not much is revealed about Django and Zorro besides the basics. That is really all you need to enjoy this book though.
There are a lot of neat themes that crop up throughout the book, and they tie in nicely to both of the stars. The characterization is top notch, which I would expect from anything involving Tarantino. The illustrations are good, but not great. I can't remember any particular images that popped. That doesn't detract from the enjoyment of this book one bit though. Fans of either of the characters should rejoice at this pairing.
