The death of the Pathsayer sends Twig and Splat on a journey to a mysterious lab, where a premonition sheds dark light on further dangers to come. Join Eisner Award-winning writer SKOTTIE YOUNG (I HATE FAIRYLAND, MIDDLEWEST) and artist KYLE STRAHM (SPREAD, UNEARTH) as they bring us deeper into this unique dark-fantasy world.
Twig #2 continues with the same energetic fun that Skottie Young and Kyle Strahm brought to the first issue. They continue their excellent worldbuilding as they lean into the fantastical. The art and colors (by Jean-Francois Beaulieu) come together to produce one of the most beautiful books on the market. Overall, this is a wonderful chapter in the overall story that they're telling with Twig. Read Full Review
Twig never suspected that being late to work on his first day would lead to this many complications. Read Full Review
Twig #2 is even better than the first issue, fleshing out the fantasy world and the many oddities within it. Twig is quickly becoming my favorite original fantasy series since The Dark Crystal. It's a joy to read. Read Full Review
Strahm offers some dazzling and beautifully detailed imagery on every page of the issue. The art brilliantly captures the strange and unique elements of a new world and its characters. Read Full Review
The overall story is nothing terribly new to the world of adventure fantasy, but Young and Strahm are developing something with a footprint all its own. Twig is a genuinely unique hero due to the delicate interplay between the dialogue in Youngs writing and the expressiveness of Strahms visual work. The furry little adventurer is off to a strong start in the first half of his series. If he can make it through the middle of the series with the same charm, Young and Strahm may really have something here. Read Full Review
The end result is an exceptional fantasy stew that is a delight to behold. Read Full Review
It's a fun little adventure with some cool art. I feel like it's worth seeing out.
