Injustice: Gods Among Us: Year Two: Volume 2
Tom Taylor, Tom Derenick, Bruno Redondo, Mike S. Miller
Continuing moving from strength to strength. I can't go too indepth without giving spoilers, but needless to say, there are some very interesting developments in this volume (the cover gives one).
Unlike the past year volumes, this one I don't think had as strong of a plot. There is a "big hint" that pops up; however, I really don't like the direction it is going, as it strays from the death being permanent thing that has made Injustice so great, and instead swings to a cliche comic twist of "guess who isn't actually dead" bleh....
I also have to admit I don't find Constantine as interesting of a character to work alongside batman and his crew... though I am excited to see Raven pop up.

I read volume 7,8, and 9 yesterday, and I have to confess it is pretty difficult to separate what exactly happened in each.
I will say this volume contains a TON of action as the CCG faces off against Agori. Kaneki really grows as a character and becomes quite powerful.

Honestly, this story is getting pretty convoluted. The beings popping up are really obscure and ridiculously powerful, but not in cool or interesting ways. I was enjoying the inclusion of Constantine; however, the story arc with the mages is falling sort flat...
Right, so if random spirits and mages wasn't weird enough for you, this one has the literal gods jumping in, which feels forced at best.
Honestly, I found the resisting Superman storyline really compelling but now it seems like the writers are just using a magic 8 ball or something...
The only reason I am still reading is I legitimately want to see how Superman's regime goes. Does he beat Batman, or does Batman convince his followers he is a tyrant? All the addition of these random background things just feels like stalling tactics.

Honestly this was more convoluted nonesense. The only redeeming part of this story was Plastic Man's part, which was funny, and grounded the story again.
The biggest disappointment of this volume is that it is the end of the story, but provides no closure, instead readers are expected to play the first Injustice in order to find how the story ends... which after reading all those volumes was pretty disappointing.
