As the Justice League Watchtower reels from a grisly murder, the Question must face a dark reality: that the main suspect in the brutal crime could be someone close to her! But as Renee digs into the unsavory mystery, she's derailed by an unexpected--and powerful--new foe. But are the killing and surprise attack related? If so, who's pulling the strings? The Question must navigate clues and double crosses to get to the truth...if she can survive that long.
Between this title Challengeds of the Unknown and the new Justice League comic book, DC is rendering a remarkably cool shared universe that feels deliciously integrated ion a whole bunch of different levels. This is a welcome change of pace from the way things have been in mainstream superhero comics in the past decade or so. Not a whole lot of attention has been paid to overall continuity and the overall quality of both Marvel and DC universe have suffered. Its nice to see DC turning things around a bit with Justice Leagues new Watchtower family of titles. Read Full Review
This series makes the Watchtower seem positively huge, and that goes a long way towards creating a compelling story. And just like any mystery, the story is just ramping up and the suspect list is getting longer and longer. Read Full Review
The case gets more complex as the Question searches for answers. Seguras writing leans into the emotional strain of Montoya. Tormey and the art team casts the spotlight right on the former lovers as the truth becomes a larger conflict than the case. Read Full Review
Overall, The Question: All Along the Watchtower continues to show the richness of the DC Universe. Read Full Review
Now that the novelty of the premise and the new All-In status quo aren't enough to dominate one's reading experience, some of the writing comes more into focus for better and for worse. Read Full Review
The only thing this issue confirmed for me was that sometimes it is best to leave characters on the proverbial shelf once their arc was completed in a satisfactory manner. How many times can we talk about Renee's alcoholism and struggles in her love life without turning them into punchlines? I know she has self-doubt about her job, but do we have to wait till the 3rd act of the movie for her to overcome it? I'm glad DC is giving characters like Renee and Cassandra their own series, and I love that Jenny Sparks and Black Canary have gotten some love as well, but it still needs to be a comic worth reading.

A nice follow-up to the first issue. We don't necessarily get any strong answers as to what's really going on, but there's some fairly well-done character interactions between Renee and Kate. Tormey's art continues to be solid as well. As with the last issue, I'm interested in seeing how this progresses.
I'm liking this series and glad the ensemble of characters introduced in the first issue continue to be involved but it took me out of the issue at the end when Batwoman gets mad at Rene for not coming to her about things when that exactly what she did.
