Last issue's THREE cliffhangers are answered here, leading to even more questions surrounding the attack on Elle Peterssen. A new person is introduced, but are they friend or foe? And Elle quickly finds that the situation she is in has rapidly gone from a 10 to 10,000!
The anxiously awaited ongoing mystery deepens as the web of suspects and lies spreads.

    Bottom line(cause Stonecold said so): 2 issues in and this is already easily the comic I am recommending the most. I think that there's a little bit of everything to please all comic fans. I won't say where it ranks , but it's a top 5 favorite for me as far as current books go. And only 2 books in! Unless the ball gets drastically dropped, we're looking at a masterpiece in the making. Not to mention a fine example as to the potential of the medium in moving towards the future. Read Full Review

    Image Comics has hit a home run with this book, creating an intense mystery and adding colorful artwork along with it. No comic book fan should be without giving this title a shot. It's well worth taking a look. Read Full Review

    An exploding brownstone indicates a pretty serious cover-up, and I found myself combing each of the panels " exquisitely rendered by artists Rodin Esquejo and Sonia Oback " for clues. I can't say enough about these two. Their character work is impeccable and they make each panel a full experience in and of itself. Together with McCann, they're giving readers an excellent return on their $2.99. Read Full Review

    This could very well be the start of something big, given the innumerable threads spiraling from the central figure's predicament. If McCann can maintain this steady momentum, it'll be worth sticking around for. Read Full Review

    I'm intrigued by the mystery surrounding Mind the Gap. McCann's annotations at the end of the comic also make a second read through a must, especially if readers want to try to figure out the mystery of Elle's injury. But beyond that, McCann has written a great character-driven story where each player is fleshed out enough to feel real " and Rodin Esquenjo's art makes looking at the comic that much sweeter.

    Comic Bastards - Dustin Cabeal Jun 14, 2012

    Unfortunately, this book suffered the classic sophomore slump, but managed to at least maintain the interest in the mystery surrounding the events that kicked off the series. McCann even says in the back of the book that this issue has the beginnings of what’s to come, but that didn’t get me super psyched on going back through and read the issue again. Loved the art and the story was okay; hopefully the next issue hits it out of the park and for the record if you don’t like McCann’s “Filling in the Gap” at the end you’re foolish. Read Full Review
