¿La verdad? No mejora mucho con respecto al anterior, pero sigo leyendo porque es una historia de brujas (y porque me prestaron los tres volúmenes, jejeje). Igual que dije con el 1, la historia tiene potencial, el problema es que es algo esquizofrénica y no decide bien hacia dónde quiere ir.
Lo mejor de este volumen fue que hubo más backstory de Eve... fuera de eso, lo demás no avanzó demasiado.

In this volume, Eve gets arrested for shooting an officer and has to contend with her recent past as a rookie cop in Boston. Meanwhile, Nate's asshole older brother is in town and he's going after young witches.

I don't know how I feel about this series. It keeps jumping from past to present and it throws me off each time.

Fills in a couple of the gaps from volume 1, which begins after the main character managed to capture a serial killer. That story is told here. And thankfully in a more coherent way than most of what happened in the previous volume.
We also learn why spoilery thing that happened to Eve towards the end of volume 1 took place.
There are still a lot of time jumps and several new timelines get introduced. That, as well as the huge number of female characters - some of them either looking similar to other ones or changing their appearance significantly in between timelines or sometimes referring to themselves in third person - makes it still somewhat hard to follow.
Questions were answered, yes. But new ones were brought up as well.
On its own this volume is more streamlined and therefore easier to read and understand. The big picture, though, remains a bit of a jigsaw puzzle. I guess volume 3 will provide the remaining missing pieces.
Once again I liked Inaki Miranda’s art a lot. And the last issue was pretty cool and also pretty creepy. But I’m not sure yet how it ties in to the other events. We’ll find out.

I liked the flashback-y flow of the narrative in this one. Excited to learn more about the witches of coffin hill and the mystery of the dark magic that belongs to the coffin family.

This collects up the next batch of comics in the series, and I think I liked it a little better than the last, even if it had more problems narrative-wise. In particular, I did not buy the choice to cover-up the cop's death - for two intelligent characters, this was extremely short-sighted thinking. No surprise it came back to bite them, and if I'm supposed to feel sorry for Eve here I don't. Stupidity is its own reward. That being said, I still enjoyed the convoluted structure of this, even if sometimes it raises more questions than it answers.
