As the team goes on the run from the deadly Destiny Man, the focus shifts to Charlotte's brother, Daniel. Until this expedition, he was the only person on Earth to successfully infiltrate the black box that is the United States. What secrets did Daniel learn that might keep the team alive, and what did they cost him?
Undiscovered Country #2 continues to be as impressive as the hype leading up to it promised. It's a very good example of a perfect balance between well-crafted character writing and storytelling using American symbolism, allegorical concepts, with straight-up dystopian sci-fi to tell a deeply engaging story. I highly recommend it! Read Full Review
Undiscovered Country #2 brings Snyder and Soule's twisted map of America into full focus. Part adventure, part commentary, this comic promises a wild ride along the American Spiral. I can't wait to see where the spiral takes Undiscovered Country next. Read Full Review
Camuncoli and Orlandini truly stun with the art in this issue. Every panel is filled with beautiful details and the art perfectly complements the tone of the story. This issue is gloriously detailed. Read Full Review
Based off this setup and the vast array of characters, Undiscovered Country is going to head into 2020 with a ton of momentum on the short list of titles absolutely worth following. Read Full Review
This issue of Undiscovered Country is an improvement over the first, focusing as it does on Daniel and giving the artists more opportunities to show off some wild stuff. Unfortunately, its still a little muddy and esoteric as a comic; some answers to what has actually happened inside the US in this weird sci-fi hellscape would go a long way towards making the series make a bit more sense.

There's a lot to like about Undiscovered Country #2. The writing is top-notch and the artwork is intricate and enjoyable to look at. The only thing that someone might not like is the large and ambitious scope being established in this issue. Read Full Review
Snyder and Soule do a great job of baiting the hook in "Undiscovered Country" #2. Combine that with a Mad Max America, and you have a special book on your hands. Read Full Review

Undiscovered Country #2 is insane in a positive way with a look that's just so over the top. Add in a story where everything is open at this point and we have a series where anything and everything feels possible, like a vivid fever dream. Read Full Review
'Undiscovered Country' #2 gives us more character development with a focus on Daniel. It's an immersive exercise in storytelling akin to how one eats an elephant: one bite at a time. Consider this a small bite of a much larger more ambitious story. There won't be anything wrapped up neatly within twenty-two pages so it's best to hunker down and take it all in one issue at a time. It should be worth it. Read Full Review
As the first arc continues to present readers with an understanding of what is happening and why, all of this may improve, but it's a significant hurdle for engaging with a narrative that still presents a plenty to fascinate us in the meanwhile. Read Full Review
Through the events of Undiscovered Country #2, the mystery only runs deeper as there are more questions than answers for this team. The mysteries which are the driving force fr this story, aside from the elements of horror in the unknown. They faced their concerns, they re-evaluated what their priorities were, and they found a reason to keep pushing into this mad world. What comes next will be big considering their new motivations will once more be put to the test. Read Full Review
Scott Snyder and Charles Soule's make clear their concern about developing both the world and characters who inhabit it; unfortunately, most of this issue centers on such background development. As a result, there are few scenes that break up all of the expository, plodding flashbacks. Read Full Review
This still a decent book, but the disparity between what it is and what it should be has only gotten wider since #1. Read Full Review
I like the idea and I like the setting. It's not great, but I'm a sucker for post apocalypse stuff. And at the same time, Snyder is writing this, so I'm preparing my self to be disappointed.
Its a good read with interesting ideas but its definitely a little out there and could have been better.
not as good as the first issue and id like to have some more character development but it's still solid
Dang, how many sides is this dude on?
I was hoping that something would click for me in the second issue, but there is just no connection. There is plenty of cool artwork to feast the eyes on, but I don't care about the characters or even America to be frank, much less a long, drawn out journey for something vague. I might actually be more interested in this comic's world outside of the US.
I don't really like this that much. It feels uninspired and I had a lot of trouble getting through this issue. I don't know if I'll continue reading this one. It's just too generic feeling to dedicate my time towards.
