Detective Aimes has finally caught up with Humphrey-the ventriloquist's puppet and vicious serial killer that murdered his partner. But if he can't figure out how to get along with Eden, an overly attractive young detective who's every word seems to crawl under his skin, they're both going to wind up dead.
Overall, another great issue of Non-Humans. With just two issues to go, the story is moving pretty quickly, but not too quickly that the characters lack development. Aimes gets some pretty good backstory, and there's quite a few unexpected twists. Plus, when you see how the antagonist in the end connects with Aimes, you're going to be like, "Wow"that's very good." Non-Humans is easily becoming one of the best mini-series from Image.

Despite the flaws in the characters and the artwork and my inability to think of this series as simply a mini-series and not an ongoing one, Non-Humans #2 is a solid title with tons of fascinating exposition which does make it feel like you get your money's worth content-wise. With better integration between the story and the artwork, along with some story fix-ups, I can see this series going in a very positive direction. Read Full Review
I dont know if Whilce Portacio is a fan of the work of Steve Ditko, but I noticed a Ditko-like tone to the overall artwork. I once heard Ditkos work on the early Spiderman issues described as other-worldly, and I think that term could easily apply to Portacios work on this book. As for the script, my opinions are always based on my own readings of the books I review, but when Mark Waid says this book is a good read, I definitely paid attention. I think NonHumans is a title that should be watched and read just to see where it will take us. Read Full Review
