In the treacherously haunted house of a young girl's brain, every door hides gut-wrenching horrors and nerve-jangling chills, all torn from the world of Bethesda Software's new survival horror game, The Evil Within! Dana, a young student, is desperately searching for her missing friend, but the hunt leads her down a path where every street corner hides devastation, dark secrets, and deadly creatures spawned from the deepest depths of the most demented minds!
Overall it's still an entertaining issue, but it struggles a lot. Granted there was no way the second issue could be the first because the story must continue, but it stumbles to figure out what it is. An extension of the game? Scenes pulled from the game? A character driven story? It could be all that, but it really needs to lock it down and deliver on one or all of them. For now it's still a fun read. Read Full Review
The Evil Within #2 may not be a great continuation to this video game companion series, with the lack of horror being a real dampener, but it somehow manages to entice.
