The Heathens chase the scorpion into its hole and find themselves surrounded by snakes. Can five alphas stay together long enough for the entire pack to make it out alive?

    Heathens moves forward a bit here but not by much. Most of it is focused on the action side of it as that's what factors into both the flashback sequences and what the present is largely about. Which is fine as it's one way to carry the narrative into new directions and it does it well here. The flashback pieces do give us a better sense of who each of the characters are that were recruited in the opening issue but I wish there was just a bit more of a nod to those that read monthly by including names just a little more so that you're not trying to find the past issue to remember who is who. It's a solid book with really enjoyable artwork and a lot of things going on. I suspect it'll get sharper in focus as it moves along, however, and that's when things will really kick into gear.

    I'll be honest: The Heathens #2 seems as convoluted and messy as the first issue and it's really only bolstering my initial thought that this is a story better suited to the graphic novel format than that issue-by-issue serialization format. Read Full Review
