The face-off against giant robots continues as Lobster Johnson's investigation leads him to a woman whose story reveals the ancient origins behind the machines' gleaming exteriors.
Adventure and the supernatural create fun and terrors in this exploit of the Lobster. Why can't this be a monthly? Highest possible recommendation. Read Full Review
The script itself moves the plot forward and is easy to follow. We get a few surprises in this issue that I won’t spoil for you all, but I will say that they make this issue well worth the read. This miniseries has one chapter left, so catch up before the next issue closes out the mystery! Read Full Review

Lobster Johnson: Metal Monsters of Midtown Issue #2 (of 3)is a playful pulp romp full of mystery & intrigue wedged nicely between, presumably, two issues of madcap action. Not for everyone, but glorious good fun for those willing to go along with the ride. Its lack of real depth holds it back from the 5-star rating a similar Hellboy book would have got, but this is brilliant fun none-the-less. Read Full Review

It remains to be seen how the mini will wrap itself up, but I'm unconvinced the destination will suddenly become worth the journey. I can't help but feel the issues could work much better as a single, judiciously edited-down, double-sized issue. As it is, Metal Monsters of Midtown is entertaining, but frustratingly paced.
