Lore Olympus Volume 2 builds beautifully on the foundation of the first volume, diving deeper into Persephone’s emotional struggles and her growing bond with Hades. Rachel Smythe continues to impress with her expressive, dreamlike art style that enhances both the lighthearted moments and the darker, more serious themes—particularly around consent, trauma, and identity. The modern dialogue and relatable character interactions give new life to ancient mythology, making the gods feel human and complex. Some pacing issues persist, and the focus shifts between side plots a bit unevenly, but the emotional depth and character development remain strong. It’s a compelling, visually stunning continuation that earns a solid 4 stars.

I enjoyed the second volume more than the first, perhaps because all the setup has already been done. Still a big fan of the artwork.
