Crixus returns in Spartacus: War of the Damned


If there is another person that Rome should fear of, it would be Crixus. It has been his desire to become a gladiators and he was fighting life-for-life to make it all happen. He was once a former Champion of Capua but become Batiatus slaves. He fights his way up and gain that undefeated record inside the arena. During the arival of Spartacus in Blood and Sand, he was already hailed as the champion and a lover to Naevia who was a former slave in the house of batiatus. he got hard pack muscles in every right places, and if we are talking about fighting, he trained himself to become the best weapon he can be however, after Naevia was vanished in ludus, he joins Spartacus forces and leads his men in rebellion against the House of Batiatus. Although he was working pretty well in every fight, his main goal was to search for Naevia which later happens. 

Rather than allows her to continue her job, he trained her to become a strong woman who can depend herself. He and Spartacus argue in many issues but no doubt they always win the fight together. And what is great is we were having Crixus thing again in the upcoming Spartacus: War of the Damned. He will once show to us how hard he is when it comes to defeating the Roman Empire as well as leading thousands of armies. 

He was still on Spartacus side but yeah, his famous bull-headed attitude was still there. I don’t know what else his character can offer since I can say we have seen him best in every angle already but who knows, all those hard-fighting skills and the yell was not just all and we are waiting to see that right? Anyway, “War of the Damned” will premiere this January 25 on starz and will present “Enemies of Rome” as our first taste for the season. 

Spartacus: War of the Damned Episode 1-Enemies of Rome

We have been counting days since the very day it was announce that starz has renewed for another Spartacus prequel. Although the finale of vengeance satisfies us, we can’t just sit around and try to convince ourselves that it was the hype of Spartacus revolts during roman’s history, because it was not. His greatest fight comes when he decided to reach the very heart of rome where the highness reigns. But I have no intentions of spoiling your excitement here so I will leave the rest to the season first episode of Spartacus: War of the Damned which is the “Enemies of Rome”. The first episode of the season tells six months after the successful fight of Spartacus and his teams against the roman’s armies’ lead by their leader Glaber. Although, many lives has been taken including a newly born baby who had no idea what was going on, but rebels are rejoicing because what was all those lives taken if it has to do with the next generation. That it could change the history rather than they will continue to be treated as riches’ pets and play as their entertainment.

Meanwhile, Spartacus success amazes the thousands of people which include the farmers. From over 70 allies, thousands of believers will come to join his fight. Some may never the underdog of way, but they will set aside the plow they were holding and get that sharp blades at the corner and trained to become fighters themselves. Rebels are just looking for the right time to strike but things will comes hard for them before they will even reach the gate of Rome. Rome anticipate their moves and they as well gather their highly trained for battle armies who are triple the double than the rebels. Ambitious Marcus Licinius Crassus will leads the entire team while Todd Lasance will be rome’s strongest weapon.

Both sides were fearsome to win, but the question is: who will win in the end? Opening this 25th of January, Spartacus: War of the Damned Enemies of Rome is the very episode to light the torch of excitement. It will ignite our cravings for action as well as drama in the hive of dangers.

Spartacus: War of the Damned


Never relay on someone's strength but learn how to stand-up on your own because you will never know how long will they stay by your side. This 25th of January, history will repeat itself in Spartacus: War of the Damned. This is the last and final installment of the entire series saga which was based from the very famous Roman's history. Rather than go and amaze the people with king's story, the producer of the show decided to focus on the most important person of history, that is Spartacus, the slave who revolts against Rome’s head of guards and later headed to the very heart of rome which we are about to see in Spartacus: War of the Damned

Although we are in the hive of wondering how such great show has to end, but Steven S. DeKnight said in the shows comic-con that it has to because the series is taking so long already.

Such show like this requires not just great effort but double the effort. The pressure was present that they have to top what they have already been given to ensure no one get bored. The series such good as this has to end with such great praises as well as maintain its record. 

Right before the victory gladiators have gained on the previous season of the series, wherein Spartacus and his men defeated the roman's head of the armies Gaius Claudius Glaber together with his angry allies, it is just days to wait before Spartacus: War of the Damned continues what have been told. The final installment of the series saga will unfold six months after the bloody war that leads so many deaths to both side of rebels and roman's. Spartacus who stand's as the leader of the rebels amaze thousands men including the farmers on his victorious fight against Glaber. Those people were started to believe he got what it takes return what was once has been stolen to them and they will join him on his journey even if it means death to them. 

All their lives, farmers are known for growing crop but with their children’s future at stake, they will trade their shovel into sharp blades and join Spartacus as he headed into the very heart of Rome.
