May 03, 2022The Rocketeer: The Great Race #2 is a fun issue that continues to play in and build the timeless world of The Rocketeer.

COMICON - Tom Smithyman
May 03, 2022While this issue is billed as the next chapter of the Rocketeer, our hero barely makes a cameo. Instead we're forced to ensure some out-of-character choices from our hero's alter ego and some one-dimensional behavior from the supporting cast. Read Full Review

Razorfine - Alan Rapp
May 10, 2022Other than a short flashback of a handful of panels, we don't get the Rocekteer in action here. Everything is centered around the start of the race, the racers, and the foreboding of what the Nazi may have planned for his fellow racers and the secrets of what are really happening behind the scenes. Perhaps the Rocketeer will be needed before the finish line after all? Read Full Review

Not too much action, but a pretty good issue. It's fun to return to a time long past to see the adventures of a hero from that time. I look forward to seeing how the race progresses.
