Me ha encantado esta segunda parte, los dos últimos capítulos han ido durísimo (en todos los sentidos) y la escena del rezo es tremenda
That Tom King, always making comics that punch me in the gut and make me want to weep in catharsis. No one else does that.
4.5/5 rounded up. It was very good, very well written, but what keeps it from a full 5/5 is a lot of tiresome tropes and a lack of giving Viv something more interesting to agonize over. Still the tiresome tropes are so well written I still really enjoyed this.

A dark fun Comic outing. Vision offers such an earnest attempt at the "awkward powerful being trying to fit in" genre and ends up telling a story that nails all the ways slippery slopes and unintended consequences can tell a great cautionary tale.
I was fine with volume 1. Fine, I thought. Quite liked it. I bought both volumes at the same time, such is my confidence in Mr King, so I went right on to volume 2.
I started to think it was all going to go really very Marvel-y. The references to other previous and current events and characters in the Marvel universe started happening... and, honestly, I fucking hate that. I'm missing all the references AND they always feel really shallowly written to me.
Butno - it was all totally handleable. The focus was squarely on this story, and it was written very, very well. Won me over. Mrs Vision particularly was a great character. The way she was struggling so hard with her existence was very affecting. The art really grew on me too.
Best Marvel thing I've read, along with the Duggan/Posehn Deadpool run.
