IT'S HYPERION VERSUS THE CARNIVAL!
• Hyperion has shown his true atomic hero self to the hitchhiker, Doll, and now he and her are right in the crosshairs of a crew of hell-powered freaks and deviants.
• Throw in a murder mystery, a crime syndicate and a stray dog and it all adds up to an unholy heap of trucker trouble.
Rated T+
Hyperion #2 definitely starts to find its voice with the more lighthearted approach to the relationship between Hyperion and Doll. The additional plot of a new bad guy made of worms provides an interesting scenario to play out this new dynamic of hero and sidekick and build some connection and investment from readers, but the story still feels a little stiff at times and needs some work introducing Hyperion and what kind of person/hero he is. When the high point of a story is the introduction of a dog, a possible soft target for a future bad guy, it does not really speak well to the story so far. All we can do is hope each issue keeps getting better and maybe eventually we as readers can begin to care about Hyperion. Read Full Review
Very surprisingly mysterious and shows how Hyperion is struggling to decide what he is in the world but Doll is really annoying and i don't care for her.
The problem with this book is that Hyperion is not the main character, instead it's Doll (a new character). That wouldn't be major problem if it wasn't for the fact that she's quite annoying and unlikable. I want to believe that she'll grow from her current behavior, but seeing other ecent Marvel comics has me believe this is the way they want her.
