Now that you've seen Jack Bauer's return to television in LIVE ANOTHER DAY, read the story that sent the heroic agent spiraling into his darkest days as an international fugitive. Ed Brisson and Michael Gaydos wind the clock on the latest chapter of the high-octane saga!

    Brisson and Gaydos handle translating the real-time nature of the series the way past creative teams have: they ignore it, knowing that there's no way to capture this hook in a sequential art format. So there are no digital time displays interspersed throughout the story, as they aren't really necessary, and would seem like a contrived annoyance if they were included. The feel of the show is superbly captured as it stands, and "24: Underground" #2 is a great supplement for those who are thrilled that Jack is back on television, but don't find it to be enough.

    24: Underground #2 continues to build up Jack Bauer, while illustrating how our war torn veteran ended up even more on the run than he was at the end of season eight. It can be clunky but it manages to earn a recommendation form me. Read Full Review
