Masks 2 has felt like a whiplash kind of series in some ways because each issue has been so different with the cast of characters involved and the time it takes place in and its connection to the Red Death. I've liked the individual pieces of it but haven't really connected with it in the larger sense since there's not felt like a good cohesive element. That's coming into play a bit here more towards the end of this issue, and we get drawn into it through Thunderbolts eyes, which works well enough when you get down to it. The Thunderbolt story here is definitely fun and well illustrated and played out, especially with Black Bat dropping in, and it's certainly interesting enough to get me wanting to check out more of his books if there are more in the future. The series hopefully will take more shape in the next installment though. Read Full Review
This issue was more entertaining than the last, but really doesn't advance the main storyline. Come on guys, next issue, let's get this party started for reals. Read Full Review
Some failed attempts at forced perspective in the art, but otherwise the art's good and communicates well. The writing is better than last issue's, Cullen Bunn seems to like Peter Cannon and I'm enjoying how this issues centres around him, though I've never considered the Spider in a leadership role, we'll see how that goes.
