Antonio ManciolinoÕs "Opera Nova, dove li sono tuttiÉ" (1531) is the oldest known published text of an Italian martial art, and is one of the core texts of the Renaissance style of fencing and combat now known as ÒBolognese swordsmanshipÓ. Manciolino begins with general advice on combat and then proceeds to provide extensive specific instruction in the use of the single-handed double-edged sword, either with a variety of companion devices (bucklers, shield, cape, dagger, etc.) or alone, as well as several types of pole arms. This wholly newly prepared translation includes the entirety of ManciolinoÕs text. In addition, the translator has provided an extensive introduction covering technical and theoretical elements, a glossary, a gallery of guards, and an historical vignette recounting an armed brawl in 16th century Bologna.

This comic is just... wow. There just isn't anything bad about it except that the rest of the series is hard to find on Amazon. For now at least...

Solid "Star Wars"-ing.
Format: Paperback
“Star Wars: The Battle of Jakku” is a three-part, 12-issue comic series, comprised of a trio of individual miniseries that form one collective trilogy-of-sorts, and details the war between New Republic/Imperial forces in the weeks and months following the events of “Return of the Jedi.” Writer Alex Segura – who previously penned the underrated "Free Fall" – does a good job of telling a single, satisfying story that ALSO tees up his upcoming relaunch of the mainline “Star Wars” series in May. What also makes “The Battle of Jakku” a pleasure to read – particularly if you’re a diehard “Star Wars” fan - are the various Easter eggs and cross-franchise connections it makes to other entries in the series, including “Battlefront II,” Greg Rucka’s "Shattered Empire," and even Chuck Wendig's “Aftermath” trilogy. Watching this specific era of the “Star Wars” timeline be filled out and expanded within the larger media has been one of the more satisfying and consistently enjoyable aspects of the “Star Wars” property these last 10 years, and Segura – as is his want – does yeoman’s work in effectively putting a final bow on it. All in all, pretty darn good “Star Wars”-ing.
