Customer Reviews

Pretty Damn good

Not as compelling as book 1 but well above par. It falls victim to the guest artists or changing hands that many comics seem to face.

DMZ Volume 2

I have not yet finished the series, but I am certainly "hooked". I like the "dossier" of places and characters at the end of this volume.

Brian Wood is the Sh**

Get this book and Vol. 1 -- not tomorrow, not later, RIGHT NOW. You won't be disappointed.

Almost As Good As Vol. 1

DMZ is an amazing comic and I'm so glad I got into it. As fun as read the 2nd set for DMZ: Body of A Journalist, it just didn't strike me the way the first one did. By no stretch of the imagination am I saying it was bad, far from it. I gobbled up every page with my eyes as quick as possible, and was left wanting more. I enjoyed meeting the odd group of people in the first Volume more, even though the story in the second seems a little more fleshed out. If you like reading DMZ Vol. 1, DMZ Vol. 2 will satisfy you just fine.

This series is highly excellent!

Volume 2 is, if anything, better than Volume 1. How this came to pass is beyond my reckoning, but let me just say that Brian Wood can WRITE and Riccardo Burchielli has a difficult name to spell. Also, he can DRAW. Seriously, these guys bring a richly detailed world to life with gritty violence, complex characters, and highly topical political issues. The storylines in this particular book delve deeper into the governmental involvement in the DMZ and give us a brief glimpse of the Free States fighters. And if the violence doesn't turn you on, I guarantee you that there is sex. Not enough? Someone's head gets shot with a bullet. Deal with it! This volume wraps up with a recap of the places and people of the DMZ - literally a travellers guide to a warzone. Well worth the wait.
