There Nikolai Dante: Love and War two titles for the same series of stories. The more recent re-titling of Love and War indicates a civil war large enough to rival the epic proportions of a Russian novel is threatening, while matters of the heart add to the mix. Of course, this is Nikolai Dante so all hell is going to break loose. The first half is incredibly funny as Dante postures and swaggers, cocksure and full of bravado. Charlie Adlard is brilliant with a homage to the famous choreographed fight scenes between Harrison Ford and the late Pat Roach in the Indiana Jones films, getting the action spot on. His style is also perfect for a story where a forlorn Dante, in love with Jena Makarov, schmoozes the Ballerina Queen of the Danse Macabre with some very funny and deadly Nikolai Dante: Love and War. Some character features are lopsided and out of proportion against some excellent backdrops, the right style for a more serious story, but it feels clunky and awkward. Simon Fraser returns for the last half of the book to begin the build up to Tsar Warswith a mixture of well illustrated humorous action and dark political machinations that will illicit no confidence in real-life politicians and authority figures whatsoever. Morrison has a gift for fostering a decent connection between Nikolai Dante: Love and War reader and the characters, some gaining your affection and others garnering a deep dislike. That he achieves this so quickly with new characters makes for a highly enjoyable action adventure with twists, turns and well placed developments aplenty. The Courtship of Jena Makarov was the title on original publication and was retained for the AD Books reissue. It was republished as Love and War in and, while in a slightly different format, has exactly the same collection of stories although there is a noticeable difference in the printing quality and layout, the earlier printing a more aesthetically pleasing read.

Fromthe majority of the stories were painted by John Burnsuntil Fraser returned to the character in Octoberwhen the two artists began to alternate on different stories. Morrison is now working on a spin off series set in the same universe. In the 27th century after a resurgent Imperial Russia has seized control of Earth and an interstellar domain, Dante, a swashbuckling young thief and ladies' man, discovers he is an illegitimate scion of the Romanov Dynasty, aristocratic rivals to the Tsar. Dante's Romanov genes bond him with a sentient "Weapons Crest," a biological weapon which gives superhuman abilities—in Dante's case, the ability to extend bio-blades from his hands and hack into computer systems. He outrages aristocratic society and enjoys a turbulent relationship with Tsarina Jena. Dmitri, the Romanov patriarch and bitter enemy of the Tsar, tries to mold Dante into an aristocrat and killer worthy of the Romanov name. Dmitri's underhanded political maneuvering prompts his war between the Makarov and Romanov dynasties, despite Jena's and Dante's attempts to prevent it, and the lovers break off their burgeoning romance. The civil war rips the empire apart, and Dante is forced to commit many atrocities. Vladimir triumphs, Dmitri dies by his own hand, and the power of the Romanovs is broken. Dante, now the most wanted man in the empire, returns to thieving, joining his mother, Katarina Dante, and her pirate crew. After spending time in the Pacific, he is forcibly recruited into the Imperial Service. In his new role as Sword of the Tsar, Dante works against everything he once held dear, though he secretly abuses his position in order to plot against his employer as he begins to build a secret army. A massacre in Nikolai Dante: Love and War oppressed state of Amerika prompts Dante to try to kill the tsar. Imprisoned and tortured, Dante escapes from jail with the help of Jena, and the two renew their relationship and raise an army of thieves and whores to win a revolutionary war against the tsar. Tsar Vladimir is put on trial for his Nikolai Dante: Love and War and Dante proposes to Jena. Their happiness is cut short by the return of Dmitri Romanov. Dmitri embarks on a rampage, murdering several of Dante's close allies, capturing Jena and destroying Dante's weapons crest. He tightens his grip on the empire, planning to marry Jena and execute Vladimir on their wedding day, Dante fights the same war against a different enemy. On the day of Jena's forced wedding to Dmitri, Dante leads his army to a second, final triumph that leaves Dmitri dead and a new era of peace and prosperity set to begin. The Romanovs are one of the most powerful dynasties in Russia, descended directly from Peter the Greatand rivalling Nikolai Dante: Love and War Makarovs in influence and military power. The main sources of the family's power are its "Weapons Crests," cybernetic symbiots from another dimension, Nikolai Dante: Love and War provide their bearers with incredible powers. The crests were designed to only bond with the DNA of the Romanov family. During the war, Dante is given command of a regiment raised in his own fiefdomRudinshtein. Initially made up of regular soldiers, the regiment is eventually supplemented by troops drawn from penal military units.
