The mindless murderer Maniac Harry has massacred all but three riders on New York's automated subway train. Can hapless straphanger Gabriella keep one step ahead of Harry, while still protecting the newly orphaned twins she's taken under her wing? Can our heroes Gi-na Greene and Detective Zelda Pettibone jump onboard the runaway train and find the survivors before Harry slaughters them? Plus, finally learn what life-altering mistake got Zelda trapped on the Maniac beat!
While we don't get any big reveals in this installment or anything that's changing the narrative, what we do get is pretty exciting and fun to watch unfold. You really feel for Gabriella as she does everything she can to survive this and protect the kids and you get chills just watching as the killer makes his way through the train. Kalan's script covers some solid ground here and keeps it going while Mutti, as always, brings home the visuals beautifully. I love his designs across the board and the color plan for it really adds that extra level of excellence to it. Read Full Review
Maniac of New York is all over the place with its pacing. As excited as I got with the injection of adrenaline in the second chapter, chapter three slams on the brakes and crawls to a pace even slower than chapter one. I really want to like this book, but every time I get interested, I get yanked back out of it. Read Full Review
I'm still not really hooked on Maniac of New York as a whole, but I'm hoping that future installments will continue to improve in this manner. Read Full Review
It started off a little average but I thought it picked up well and once again leaves you wanting more.

This latest installment highlights Maniac Henry’s wrath as he more
The tone and pace of the first issue hasn't held, the plot now centers around this one train incident, which is starting to drag.
