    Silent Hill Downpour: Anne's Story #2 keeps a strong focus on someone that's plagued by personal tragedy and regret but is also besieged by monsters. All that adds up to a highly recommended release. Read Full Review

    Issue two doesn't hit the same stride that issue one did but, it does settle into a comfortable pace. One that is proving to be the perfect pace to travel through Anne's hell. Silent Hill done right is Silent Hill Anne's Story. Fans, don't miss out. Read Full Review

    We The Nerdy - Kierra Prince Oct 2, 2014

    The art style is my only criticism and I know that a lot of people will be divided on it. On one hand I really enjoy the fact that Tristan Jones has gone with a really messy, almost unfinished design. It uses a done of rough line work, details often aren't filled in all the way, and certain fills often look like scribbles. While I feel like it does help highlight the horror and the idea that stuff in Silent Hill is a physical manifestation of people's inner thoughts, I would've liked to see it polished a little bit more. It seems like the style would make certain things scarier but this issue's main enemy (that directly has to deal with something from Anna's past) is almost too obscured by these rough lines. Silent Hill's enemies and boss monsters are one of the series' high points and it was a shame to see that so much of it was obscured. Read Full Review
