Strayed #2 is carried by the premise of the series as a whole. This issue is utilitarian in the sense that it only seems to exist as a way to bridge the opening issue to a more interesting story on the horizon. With that being said, the issue is also saddled with an uninteresting antagonist, but is buoyed by a fun, adorable, astral projecting cat. Read Full Review
For a comic about astral projecting cats, this is a very, very melancholic issue and I'm worried that it'll become much more tragedy before much longer. Read Full Review
Develops nicely from the opening issue, with the moral quandary facing Kiera being explored. In places other characters feel a little two dimensional, but over all this remains an interesting and different comic. I'm looking forward to the next issue.
