I enjoyed this even more than vol1 with the characters established, Milligan has more room to explore their interpersonal dysfunction and melodrama, with plenty of great laughs too. IвЂ™m in similar retroactive awe that Marvel released a comic so soon after 9/11 that cast the CIA in a villainous role working to enrich the profits of the pharma industry, and that itвЂ™s funny instead of cringingly prea 4.5 stars This also manages to be the rare self-aware media satire that still works 20 years later. moreД¤.5 stars I enjoyed this even more than vol1 with the characters established, Milligan has more room to explore their interpersonal dysfunction and melodrama, with plenty of great laughs too.

#X FORCE PETER SERIES#

Most of this series so far has been quick, jumping from happening to happening like episodes of a TV show, but the big closing arc was more like an actual arc, and kept playing with cliffhangers in an annoying way. I loved the first half of this volume, and while there are some fantastic moments in the second half it was too drawn-out for me. He's got his own flaws that make him interesting but I'm a bigger fan of the supporting cast. I'm less fond of 'The Orphan', though, he's sort of just there to accompany everyone. I love what this volume does with The Anarchist and U-Go Girl, giving them great arcs that flesh them out as fantastic individual characters (despite how one-note they appeared in the first volume). but on the other hand, celebrity worship has only gotten stronger and in hindsight so culture of the early 2000s can be absolutely bizarre. I'm les I love how Milligan gets to make jabs at popular media, on the one hand it can feel a bit dated with their references and the specific ways they do it.
