Very good follow-up to Volume 1
They're Not Like Us Volume 2: Us Against You - Eric Stephenson

 

 

This is very entertaining and engaging stuff: our powered group finds themselves discovering more about each other as well as meeting others who have escaped the Voice's grasp. There are a whole new bunch of characters to meet, all quite intriguing, but it's hard to know who to trust. Meanwhile the police investigate and creep towards the truth.

Highly recommended – reminds me a bit of the Runaways series.

Various super-villain plots develop
Invincible, Vol. 7: Three's Company - Bill Crabtree,Ryan Ottley,Eric Stephenson,Robert Kirkman

 

 

The Mauler twins are involved in Robot’s plan and the Reanimen plot continues. There’s a fight with Angstrom Levy and a trip to Africa to see Eve. Lots of plot development and a much better volume than some of the previous ones. Maybe having a break from these had made me appreciate this one more. Now for Volume 8.

Black Holes For The Young
They're Not Like Us Volume 1 - Eric Stephenson,Simon Gane,Jordie Bellaire

This graphic novel was following me around. I even saw it in physical book stores, where I seldom see graphic novels that are also on Netgalley at the time. So, as I kept coming across it my interest grew and I decided to give it a try even though I didn't really know what it was about and I passed on it when I first saw it.

 

A bunch of special kids live together being special. That's basically what it is.

 

It was not for me. I was actually disappointed by the story. There wasn't a single likeable character between them and I couldn't feel any sympathy either. There was a lot of self pity though, how nobody liked them because they were different. I still don't know where the story is going, but frankly I don't really care. The best part for sure was the title. The art was good but didn't blow me away.

 

Black Holes For The Young is the first volume of They're Not Like Us.

 

Thanks to the publisher and Netgalley for providing me with a free copy of this book in exchange for an honest review!

Nowhere Men, Vol. 1: Fates Worse Than Death
Nowhere Men, Vol. 1: Fates Worse Than Death - Eric Stephenson Tons of pseudoscientific punk politics mixed with fake advertisements trying to be the Avengers. Was more interested in the team stuck on the space station than the Dade/Emerson/Simon mind games man-behind-the-curtain plot. May or may not read the next one. Feeling kind of meh about it.

Also Susan = Cousin Itt.
