Sep 30, 2026Denver #2 builds successfully on the debut by raising the stakes and giving Max Flynn’s struggle greater emotional weight. Jimmy Palmiotti and Justin Gray deliver a tense story of loyalty, guilt, and revenge, while Pier Brito and Bill Tortolini keep the issue visually gripping and easy to follow. With strong character work, escalating danger, and a compelling cliffhanger, this remains an easy recommendation for action and science-fiction fans. If the ramp up of issue two is any indication this series should be on top of everyone’s list when they hit the comic shop this week. Read Full Review

Good issue. Art is still great in some places and rough in others. How I despise the blame shifting and ideological driven term "gun violence".
