Marla is drawn deeper into the mystery surrounding the missing ship plans even as she comes to grips with her own troubled past. But who - or what - is stalking her through the snowy streets of New York? As friends are unmasked, enemies circle... leaving Marla's alter ego Miss Fury all alone to fight a foe she can barely comprehend!
Miss Fury Vol 2 #2 makes a lot of progress, building up to this mystery that is pulling Marla every which way with clues to things she couldn't see clearly till now. Her darker side has been teased, so has her past, and things can only get worse as these things make up who she became now. Hopefully the third issue keeps up with this momentum because Miss Fury is a character you should want to follow. Read Full Review
Miss Fury doesn't exactly have a sophomore slump here with its second issue but it's working through the story beats it needs to in order to expand the mystery. The series feels very similar in some ways to what Matt Wagner is doing over in The Spirit and there's a lot of appeal in seeing what Bechko is doing. But it's something that requires that bigger view instead of an issue by issue critique to some degree. I can imagine that once this arc is done that it'll be very solid and rate higher as a whole. I like what she's doing in setting the mystery, the time period, and slowly but surely introducing more of the characters that make up Marla's life. It certainly doesn't hurt that Jonathan Lau really makes this a fantastic looking book with a lot to offer with some great detail, backgrounds, and exciting action set pieces with the way Miss Fury moves throughout it all. Good stuff that is full of potential that I can see being worked with intent. Read Full Review
So, if you miss Batwoman and enjoyed Sandman Mystery Theatre, this is for you. Read Full Review
The plot thickens with further mystery and intrigue, I have a feeling this will read better as a trade since each issue is more a piece of a story than a complete thought. Lau's art is enough to keep me coming back each month, if nothing else.
