Good, pretty much similar praise with the first issue, although I will say they did make the Comedian a more interesting character and the mystery surrounding the incident that took place in the first issue. So it did great in that department, but the reason why I feel like this issue is overall weaker compared to the first one is that they go way overboard on the dark tones of this world. I don't usually criticize anything in general for having this, but the World in Watchmen just feels overly Dark. Other than that, nothing else to say but yea good issue.
Still great world building going on here. This chapter is not as strong as 1 is. Lots of dark themes here. An excellent read with great art. It just drags a smiggen at the end.
