    Defenders: Beyond #2 brings back the Beyonder and his people in full form. Al Ewing manages to streamline the history of the Beyonder and his species in the wider Marvel cosmos and gives the Beyonder a distinct voice, look, and personality to match. The art by Javier Rodriguez is great at delivering the more surreal environments the Defenders find themselves in, and it's not half bad when the action starts. Read Full Review

    This should've been an Ultimates team (Black Panther, Blue Marvel, America Chavez, Ms. Marvel, Spectrum) book but this is what a comic book should be!!!!

    This is a book for everyone. Doesn't matter if your are hardcore or casual, non marvel reader or the biggest marvel fan there is. This is a top tier "mainstream" story.

    The best thing about the comic is what Ewing did with the Beyonders, managing to simplify and organize their history, the panels and dialogues of Loki Goddess of stories are simply magnificent, like those of Adam, even so, it seems to me that Tigra and Taia are filler up to this point, something that will change later.

    If lore was a kind of food, this book would be a five-star restaurant.

    The Ultimates are back it again! Ewing and Rodriguez are a must read if you want to explore the MU lore.

    It looks exciting and it moves shockingly fast, considering how much cosmic navel-gazing it does along the way. I think the cosmic ideas and the basic "Defenders have an adventure" plot are in an uneasy, imperfect balance. They affect each other and they're both good on their own, but personally, I found the cosmic stuff *so* cool that I didn't fully appreciate the adventure story on the first read. But there's *so much* thoughtful, imaginative stuff happening here that "I had to read it twice" is an entirely positive comment.

    The story is solid (though Tigra doesn't seem to have much to do). It's the art that moves it from good to great.
