Annoying music in parts 3 & 4, but yet another delightful episode of Samurai Jack!

Oh, I almost forgot about this series!
I did like Samurai Jack...And this Spartan episode was one of my favorties. I think, much like the comic "300" does a good job of a stylistic feel, love the capes, and the "expressive" look of the helmets...Very cool
I also love the missile-firing spears...Where were those in 400 BC? :lol:

I like the part where he puts it on and a few seconds later his blue eyes appear..!

This is the greatest thing I have seen in a long time. I might have to check out Samurai Jack more often...
