  Whether or not you care for the DV8 franchise, this is a mini-series well worth giving a look. The unique premise, Wood's voice, and the slick visuals all help the series stand out in the ever-crowded superhero market. Read Full Review

  The issue was not as exciting as the previous but it moved the story along which seems was its purpose. Wood is obviously taking us through a certain series of events that must play out before we get to some all out action. Its a build-up that Im willing to wait patiently for to see the pay off.

  If you like your superheroes to be run a little more mature, but it in an intelligent way, then I recommend this issue to you. It reminded me a bit of Neil Gaiman's Miracle Man run in that it focused on the dramatic potential of superpowers, rather than just fisticuffs. I do recommend picking up this issue, although you should realize that it's definitely a mature readers title. Read Full Review

  While we don't get an extensive look at the geopolitics of the various tribes, Bliss' story is a good start with the final pages of the issue pushing to another member of the team, Powerhaus. "DV8: Gods and Monsters" #2 builds on the potential shown in the first issue with good writing, great looking art, and a clear direction that's both entertaining and interesting. Read Full Review
