ALL TREMBLE BEFORE THE EVIL THAT IS METERAX AND HIS... ah, you know what? Who gives a damn? Mark's wedding to Katie is looming and he still hasn't learned how to fly or gotten a superhero costume yet. But it's Imperial who gets a lesson when Mark teaches him how to make s'mores: Jab it--Heat it--Stack it--Squish it. Now that's worth saving the world for.
This comic reads like a very middling sitcom as the humor is there, it's just not very gut busting, so don't expect a TV version on NBC anytime soon. That said, the story is strong and compelling, so throw this on Showtime and we might have a show on its hands. Read Full Review
All in all, this is an improvement on the last issue and holds potential for this little mini-series. At this point, it's very open in its direction and I would recommend people give it a go. Read Full Review

"Imperial" #2 ends up working because of its charm. We're not getting enough of Mark's fiance Katie yet, and since this is just a four-issue mini-series I'm hoping that changes soon since we're at the halfway point. Still, overall, this book as a certain je ne sais quoi that pushes it into the above average zone. Whatever it is, Seagle and Dos Santos need to keep it going. Read Full Review
The interiors are pretty boring. Even the panel setup was super plain and for a book with no real narrative spark, "Imperial"'s dull art is just one more strike against it. Read Full Review
Nothing groundbreaking here, but I was entertained. I'll stick with the series.
