Jupiter's Legacy #2

Jupiter's Legacy #2

Mark Millar & Frank Quitely: writer, co-creators, artist

Solicitation & Preview

Review
I'll admit that I cheated a little and read the first two issues of this series back to back. Looking back, that is the way this series should be read.

The book itself isn't too bad. I enjoy Quitely's work and Millar has had a couple of hits for me. For the most part, I just felt like the comic was very shallow in a way. The characters felt generic and the story had some cool moments, but even now I struggle to really remember much of it.

I get the same sense for this book like I do for a lot of Brubaker and Philips' work on Fatale - I know it is good stuff, but for some reason it just doesn't excite me. So as far as a full on review goes, I really can't do it.

Grades
Words: 7/10
Pictures: 7/10
General Feeling After Reading: Blah.
Buy Next Issue: I will see if the third issue changes my mind, otherwise I may just not move forward with it.
