A magical turf war like you've never seen before! The London chapter of the Magic Order has entered the scene, and these tough Guy Ritchie-style gangsters have a problem with the Eastern European Warlocks moving into their territory. Can new leader Cordelia Moonstone keep the peace?
Celebrate Halloween with the return of your favorite horror series, sequel to the smash-hit first volume by MARK MILLAR and OLIVIER COIPEL. This new arc is drawn by the peerless STUART IMMONEN (Empress, Star Wars, New Avengers) and is set to be as massive and captivating as the first.
The irrepressible Cordelia and her family return in a debut issue dripping with dark magic and even darker forebodings. A well paced issue that suggests a promising confrontational clash to come between two families with very different world views. Read Full Review
Mark Millar gets this second volume of The Magic Order off to a rip-roaring start as we see Victor Korne and his clan introduced in style. If the final few panels of this book are anything to go by. Then I'd say we are in for quite the ride as we see two magical families go toe to toe. Be warned though. This book is strictly for the more mature readers. Not for the kiddies. Read Full Review
The Magic Orders second volume is just as enticing as its previous installment. This is one of Millars strongest Millarverse titles and this is a clear jumping on point for new readers. Read Full Review
While the dysfunctional family that is the Magic Order shines throughout, the villains are who really steal the show, and it all combines for a thrilling foray back into the world of The Magic Order that I couldn't get enough of. Read Full Review
Along the way you'll get to meet deadly imaginary friends, an immortal suicidal killer, and a perfectly charming little girl's birthday party. The Magic Order is Harry Potter by way of Coppola and Scorsese. It's full of richly imaginative elements and weird rules, populated by venal people who try to do good or revel in doing evil; just the thing for the comics reader who's become jaded with homicidal clowns perpetually being beaten by sociopaths with a leather fetish.

The Magic Order vol. 2 #1 does a solid job of pulling us back into Millar's world of hidden, wonderous and often deadly magic as well as setting the stage for the story to come but falls short of stirring the same excitement, it did before in an opener that doesn't do anything exceptional out the gate even though it's extremely well put together by all involved.

The Magic Order 2 #1 is a solid start to the sequel series, though it requires knowledge of the previous series to fully appreciate the story. If you are looking for a new urban fantasy story, I highly suggest checking out the firstMagic Order miniseries and then reading this issue. I also feel like we'll see more about the planned Netflix adaptation as more issues go on sale. Read Full Review
Solid start from Millar, a bit of house cleaning, a great action piece, and setting the stage for what's coming. Really cool artwork from Stuart Immonen, it fits quite nicely.
