Jupiter's Children 0

[The Brain]

I just read #2 - liked it better than #1.

 

A story is starting to come together....

 

(1) a world with super heroes that may/may not need them

(2) power struggles and political positioning

(3) greed and jealously

(4) a somewhat Romeo and Juliet dynamic

(5) grown kids with "daddy issues"

 

Not a bad second issue. As I said, better than the first and I'll tune in for a few more.

 

¿Anyone else read número dos?

Yes, me.

Also (6) Friends turning allies into enemy's.

I think you nailed it. I would add a little Jack Hawksmoor from the Authority with the " we know what is better for you than you do " attitude from one of the powerhouses. I'm really looking forward to issue 3. I was worried that I had my expectations too high with this creative team but I couldn't be happier with this book.

I just read the preview for issue 3. I'm sad that the book won't be released for another month because it seems like it's going to be pretty intense.

I think this would be a lot hotter book if it came out monthly. Of course, it would be late, we would have a different artist for an arc so I'm okay with the current schedule but I'm like you, I can't wait for number 3.

[deadleg]

Agreed! Bimonthly is too long of a wait.

[the authority]

Rescued from page 10. Number 3 ships tomorrow. I'm going back and reading 1 and 2 because 2 months is too long

[Hekla]

I'll get it cause I like this title but my wallet wishes there wasn't so many other good books coming out tomorrow.

[ItsJustRyan]

I already pre-ordered #3 and like the first two.

 

Also, what Hekla said

[the authority]

Hey Ryan

 

Tomorrow's books are going to be great. One of our other faves, GotG #6 is finally out tomorrow also. How great is that book ?

[ItsJustRyan]

I like GotG, but I'm an issue behind (haven't read #5 yet). Raccoon kinda turned me off TBH

[the authority]

Yeah, never quite latched on to him either but I've lived through Ewoks and JJ Binks to get to the good stuff in Star Wars so...

[the authority]

Crazy good story. I can't say too much about it other than to say it is moving into a story that is very reminiscent of the Authority.

 

 

Brutal

 

[mysterio]

I've picked it up but haven't read it yet. Have really enjoyed it to this point.

I think this raises the bar the bar for the series. A very haunting issue that I haven't been able to get out of my head since I read it.

+1

 

I skipped issue #2 because I didn't like the first issue premise. #3 was a stunning surprise. Not what I expected. I am adding to the pull list. And I will go track #2 down.

This one will floor you. I thought a lot of us were reading this but maybe with the lag time people lost interest. Its about as good as Millar gets imo and if you like Quitely, I think this is him at his best too.
