    Multiversity Comics - Stephenson Ardern-Sodje Dec 3, 2015

    When compared to the tight, all-encompassing opening issue of "Limbo", issue #2 might feel a little less narrative focussed. It centres on a singular event, offering up one or two pieces of information but somehow leaving you feeling like you know less about the world of Dedande than before. This level of detail orientation is a distinct change of pace, but one which hopefully marks the creative team's confidence that there is more than one short story to tell in this universe. If issue one was the pilot (scrambling to give its audience an overview of the world at large) then issue two is the first commissioned episode; slower, stranger, luxuriating in the world it's created, and with an overarching plan hidden just out of sight, waiting to be realised.

    Limbo is fun and imaginative. It takes every child of the 80's back home and fills their heads with nostalgia and a land before polygons. Wijngaard and Watters have a clear vision, and its nothing short of beauty watching it play out. Read Full Review

    Big Comic Page - John Wallace Dec 9, 2015

    All in all, this is well worth picking up. The characters are developing nicely and so is the sense that absolutely anything can happen. I believe that there is a lot more that needs to be explained about the world of Dedande. There's something that the teleshaman said that has me questioning everything, and I love that. I'll continue to tune in, even if it's just to see if a gut feeling I have pans out (no I'm not telling you what it is). Read Full Review

    Comic Bastards - Dustin Cabeal Dec 9, 2015

    This second issue definitely stacks up to the first issue which is a good thing. I'll save my usual rant about second issues, but I will say that Limbo's sophomore issue has been enjoyable and set the stage for me to return for the next issue. Which is basically all you can really ask for from readers. Read Full Review

    Comic Crusaders - Johnny Hughes Dec 21, 2015

    The book isn't actually my cup of tea; still that doesn't detract from the quality on show. With that I'm mind, if you like your voodoo mixed with a detective story or vice versa than this could be the book for you. Read Full Review
