Peter Davids return to a fan favorite character thats become synonymous with his name continues on this soul searching quest to find out why hes back in the land of the living, and its peppered with Davids patented humor and quippy filled dialogue. Its a very Peter David comic in all of the best ways possible. Meanwhile we have Juanan Ramirez over here putting in the work showing us that hes primed for the big time. Read Full Review

Genis-Vell: Captain Marvel #2 suddenly takes a left turn in the lead character's quest to get his memories back for a mission to save Death from the Kree. The dialog, pacing, and plotting are all very good, but the new mission comes out of nowhere and seems like a random distraction. Read Full Review

This comic just serves as a reminder of how missed Genis has been from comics for nearly 20 years. He is a fantastic character, especially when written by Peter David who wrote his last solo series.

It's good 2nd issue but the time/place/memory hopping around is a bit much to keep track of. It makes sense but I had to think twice about the sequence of events. Still I like how Peter David writes and it doesn't hurt that Juanan Ramirez is doing some fine art too.

Some deft continuity nods and dangling-but-clearly-important plot threads elevate an adequate but not particularly remarkable space adventure. It's written and drawn decently; what makes it good is the strong sense that the author has a cool big-picture plan for future installments.
