Her perilous quest resumes!
As Ara continues her voyage across the seas, she comes to know more about her guide - Captain Boro. But, any bonding between them is interrupted when an ancient evil rises from the depths - intent on destroying them all. Boro's men have heard many tales of the fabled mermaids, but when it comes to legends, sometimes the truth is far more terrifying than the myth!
Creator J.T. Krul, artist V Ken Marion, and colorist Juan Fernandez are proud to present the follow-up volume to Aspen's smash hit series - JIRNI!
An improvement over last issue, but the story could be better. The art is superb, as are the colors and letters. It seems as though the visuals take precedence over the story, and it shouldn't. Read Full Review
Jirni Vol. 2 continues to make things interesting with interesting new characters, solid writing and stunning art. You will see some of the best art is comics ever with this one issue. It is detailed, vibrant, alluring and beautiful. Krul's writing is really solid, allowing readers to get into Boro's and Ara's head a bit more. And while the fight felt a little shoe horned in, it was still fun to see. This issue was really good. Read Full Review
Jirni vol.2 #2 is the type of high seas adventure yarn that's just bound to attract an audience. With a smart creative team and an old, but epic, plot structure this franchise remains a winning onefor Aspen as the latest issue comes recommended. Read Full Review
It's possible that this story will pay off in future chapters, but as a stand-alone issue it really drags.

There's absolutely no point in reading this issue. The overall plot to the series has yet to be revealed after two issues and we're spending a lot of time with characters that are clearly just here for the series and soon to be gone. I love the artwork. I love the world from the first volume, but this second volume feels like a cash grab based on the first volume's success. I just wish I knew what the point of this series was. The first volume was about freeing Ara's mother, getting revenge and figuring out how to deal with being a genie. The second volume seems to be about Ara on a boat fighting off sexual advances and killing monsters when they conveniently show up" I can't imagine that the next two issues are going to turn this ship around so I'll leave it dead in the water. Wait, here's another boat pun, abandon ship. Read Full Review
