Things get worse as the kids come face-to-face with Ben's killer! And, as Murphy continues to take more drastic measures to avenge his friend, Tank and Amanda are faced with the question of how far are they willing to follow their friend down that dark path. Friendships are tested and broken, and that's not the worst of it as this breakout series from Frank Gogol, Nenad Civiticanin, and Sean Rinehart barrels toward its final chapter!

    It was a pleasure to read both issues, but it's only supposed to be a 3-issue miniseries, but the pacing feels more like its supposed to go for at least 12. So I would be shocked if it just stopped at 3 issues. Read Full Review

    But Why Tho? - Nikko Soto Aug 11, 2019

    Overall, the creative team has once again delivered a phenomenal issue. The friendship is already starting to have issues without Ben to lead. I'm hoping that they'll come out of this but it wouldn't surprise me if the challenges only get bigger from here on out. The ending of Dead End Kids #2 surely elevates the stakes of the entire series as a whole. It propels the story to become an even bigger mystery and makes it clear that Amanda, Tank, and Murphy are not safe. I look forward to reading the next issue of this amazing comic series.

    Pastrami Nation - Nolan Smith Aug 25, 2019

    This rag-tag group of kids have such heart and endure so much. I work for a school, and I see kids that experience similar issues and more all of the time, carrying the weight on the shoulders every single day. Gogol and the group capture the emotions of the youth perfectly. Dead End Kids #2 is a home run, and I cannot wait for the third and final issue. Read Full Review

    Dead End Kids #2 proved that the first issue was not a one-hit wonder. It continued the tale that captivated readers while adding more complexity along the way. The twists and revelations in this issue made it anything but predictable, leaving us with a true mystery on our hands. Read Full Review

    Monkeys Fighting Robots - Anthony Composto Aug 7, 2019

    DEAD END KIDS #2, a story aptly named "Holes", is an emotional reminder of the scars and trauma that shape us and make us human. Read Full Review
