A substantial improvement on the first issue, with more humor, action, and intrigue beyond the bald-faced setup. Still hits far below the original and has the reek of crossover fanfiction, but at least now it seems to he starting to have some fun with the concept.

Good comic but, not as captivating as the 1st. I enjoy the dark tone and the interactions of the characters. Hopefully the pace picks up because everything was kind of slow. The artwork was good in this as well.

My only issue is the mime couple. I really don’t care for them.

Let me preface this by saying that I've never been a huge Watchmen fan, the movie, sure, but I remember liking the graphic novel, but not that much. I get why it's important and all that, but it wasn't really my thing.

And with that, I thought this was another slow-burn, promising issue. It had pretty much everything I wanted, the story moved a little faster than the first issue, and it was less of a setup. Important things actually happened. Characters showed up unexpectedly. And the art... My god, the art is just beautiful, no matter whether or not I'll end up liking the story, it may end up worth reading just because of the art.

The only gripe that I had was that there were a few things that happened near the end that I feel like it needs to be explained well in later issues, but won't. I just don't see how Johns will be able to do that.

All in all, another solid issue, I'm still gonna reread it again, because it was denser than your average DC comic. Still not sure if Johns will pull it off in the end, but it's looking good so far.

The search for Dr. Manhattan continues...

Rorschach and Ozymandias go to Batman's Earth in search of him. The interactions between certain characters (I'm not going to spoil it for you.) are every geek's dream. I LOVED it. Also, the art style and transitions between panels were great. It's getting much more interesting and tense.

In this issue Ozzy and Rorschach go to Earth Prime, with help from two new characters (from issue 1), they arrive to Gotham as they are looking for the smartest people out there, Bruce Wayne and Lex Luthor.

In this issue we also see The Comedian again.

I am literally screaming right now!

Oh my god I freaking LOVE this issue!
Spoiler
They traveled in time or to a parallel universe or something and now Rorschach 2.0 and "the smartest man on earth" are somehow in Gotham City because apparently that's where Dr. Manhattan is.

THE COMEDIAN IS BACK BITCHES!!!
I literally jumped up and down and squealed like a little girl when he showed up.
I CAN'T WAIT FOR HIM TO KICK MORE ASS!!

Batman meeting Rorschach 2.0 has to be the best moment in the history of DC comics!


I seriously can't express how much I love this issue!
I hope the rest are even better!!
