Zelda has a knack for finding trouble, and as she slips away from the consequences of her actions in the Outside, new dangers find her in New York.
As always, Black Cloud #2 is a well thought out comic book to read. Zelda is a hustler of the streets. She needs food and shelter in order to survive in a cold city. Her ability to open a fantasy world and be engulfed in it is her bread money. Without it, she becomes barren. I will be very interesting to see her encounter with Frank will divulge in upcoming issue. Read Full Review

I recommend this comic. Black Clouds keeps the reader on its toes, only feeding spoonfuls of information about the other world and the magic that encompasses a certain few people from that world. Zelda, while not exactly the most sympathetic character, does feel well rounded and is an individual who draws you in and makes you want to know more about her. Its a great comic and I cant wait to read the next issue. Read Full Review
Latour and Brandon have flipped the script and I find myself excited to tumble further down the rabbit hole. Read Full Review

Overall, Black Cloud #2 is an alluring entry into what has the potential to be a captivating world. It tries some creative things artistically in highlighting the real world against the one of imagination, especially alternating between bright colors and darker, gloomier scenes. It will continue to be a tough job to represent all the wonders of imagination, but we can look forward to seeing how it's done as the world builds and characters develop. Read Full Review
The story is gaining depth and momentum and the characters are getting more interesting with every appearance. Read Full Review
There's the potential for something good with Black Cloud, but the creative team needs to quit beating around the bush and solidify its premise and execution if it wants readers to stick around. Read Full Review
I don't really have any idea what is going on here, but at least it was not boring. I understand that the writers are purposefully unveiling the story slowly, but I'm not sure if I'm down for a whole arc of this confusion. I am coming back for issue 3, in any case.
