This issue was great from beginning to end. It was action packed and the stakes are were high. The character development of Athos, Porthos, and Lovey is perfect, with the way they work together being the highlight of it all. The pacing of this issues was great too. It was quick and action packed, with a couple of brief moments to explore the character development, none of which caused a lull in the movement of the story. It really all reminds me of the phrase “well oiled machine”. Read Full Review

I adored the debut of Man’s Best from Pornsak Pichetshote and Jesse Lonergan, so I was amped for this next issue. Man’s Best #2 ramps up the action BIG TIME, plunging our beloved trio - Athos, Porthos, & Lovey - into even more perilous situations as they journey across an alien world looking for their humans. The concept of Homeward Bound in space continues to captivate me, and Pichetshote & Lonergan leans into this big time, delivering another exhilarating experience. However, I have a minor criticism: the characters’ personalities feel somewhat stagnant from the first issue. Their communication issues and inability to work together feel like a repeat without any new layers added. While the scale of their situation is greater now, I hope to see more complexity and/or growth in future issues to give these adorable pets some added depth. On the other hand, Lonergan’s art is a standout yet again. The action sequences are heart-pumping. I found myself genuinely worried for our main characters during several intense panels (poor Lovey). Lonergan’s style might not appeal to everyone, but it resonates with me & really enhances the overall experience. The scene where our trio escapes Klangers by navigating a tight corridor was insanely drawn! Overall, Man’s Best #2 is an action-packed adventure that will keep you on the edge of your seat. While I’m eager to see more character development, the creative team’s vision & execution have me hooked! more

This one falters a bit; there's some tonal whiplash and the arguing among the leads is already getting tiresome. The setting is great.
