I've been in love with this story s...ince Top Cow launched the comic in the 90s. I had this set before but sadly I ended up selling it. The characters are colorful and engaging, wicked soundtrack throughout, and the cinematography is so cool...shots throughout like comic book panels come to life. Some of the CGI hasn't aged well by current standards, however, this doesn't faze me one bit. Again it's a live action presentation of a comic/graphic novel, and because of that and the often over the top nature of this type of media, it doesn't take away from the fun at all. You'll have to see it for yourself. I'm over the moon to have this back in my hands.

I was pleasantly surprised by this show. I'd never hear...d of it but it kept coming up when I was looking in movies and TV shows for something new. It was the right price so decided to give it a try. It's very original plot line, although it sticks with the 'good guys vs bad guys' sub-plot. We are thoroughly enjoying the strong woman lead character. I'm not real happy with the character change happening with Ian, one of the lead male actors. But the one main bad guy was killed off, which was a 'good thing'. Although he is still lurking in ghost-like form. Good special effects and character development. There was a twist not too far into the storyline where the partner was brought back to life in a strange plot twist. But he is a good actor and now, after adjusting to it, we are happy they brought him back. I highly recommend this show.
Big fan of the show when it first aired, was... bummed when it got cancelled. Yancy is superb in her role, and the rest of the cast aint half bad either! Jumped at the chance to purchase this series for my sci-fi library, the minute I saw it available here. Even better the second time around. Strong female lead, Yancy Butler rivals even Jessica Alba in her Dark Angel series.

I love this series, and the idea behind it is fascinating;... is time travel possible? Can one identity have multiple, chosen, lives by moving across time layers? The Blade, itself, is a classic token, found in many folktales. The show was well written, cast, and paced.
