Pues el volumen 2 no defrauda para nada, además introduce personajes míticos dentro de la saga y sigue toda la historia de las Tortugas Ninja hasta llegar a un punto en que perfectamente se podría acabar esta serie de cómics, pero no...

Ganas mil del Vol.3.

I missed this book and a few of the volumes it included the first time I read through the IDW collections. But reading this collection really cleared up some things and was another great read. I love the story they are telling in the new IDW series comics and I really love the format and collections they are putting out. It always leaves me wanting more.

Indeed, Mikey. Cool.

This was a fun sequel! Maybe it dragged a bit in the middle, I found myself checking out a bit around the sci-fi elements, but the history of the Foot Clan segments more than made up for my vague dissatisfaction with the sci-fi storyline. The art in this one feels a bit more inconsistent than the previous volume, not a lot of high points to look and marvel at.

Still a fun entry in a series I don't regret starting!

This book is what comics are all about. I could read this one over and over (I say that because I actually have). The art is gorgeous, first of all, and very austere. I don’t know much about artwork but in this book things are cranked up to eleven so that everything looks harsher and darker and cold.

The Turtles in April’s apartment are getting read for Christmas. Michelangelo is cooking Christmas Eve dinner, Rafael is trimming the tree and Donatelo is rigging up the lights to put on a particularly amazing show.

Meanwhile Leonardo battles across the New York rooftops with members of the Foot clan until bloodied, beaten and nearly weaponless he is corralled and surrounded and he discovers the reason for their attack. The Shredder is back, and he is not happy.

The rest of the book is about loss and trauma and depression and blame and is not the kind of story you expect to see explored in a comic book. If you want to only ever read one Ninja Turtles comic book this is the one to read.

Once again we visit the grittier side of Turtle life following on from Vol 1. This volume delves deeper into the back story of the Turtles and also looks at the origins of The Foot.
There's other-dimensional adventures as the Turtles are reluctantly drawn into the war of the Neutrinos vs Krang.
Also we discover how Shredder is so old but looks so young. It's not Oil of Olay but it is a surprising twist.
A great follow up to the previous volume. I thoroughly enjoy the Turtles be treated in a more mature way. As before, I'd happily recommend this.
