Lois Lane #2

This is an excellent follow up to the stellar debut issue, as both Rucka and Perkins are putting out some of their best work yet. Read Full Review

It seems difficult to believe that Rucka, Perkins, and Paul Mounts can continue this momentum for ten more issues, but the first two indicate that Lois Lane will be an instant classic. Jump onto this title now, dont wait for the trade. Read Full Review

This was a strong follow up to the already incredible issue #1. Read Full Review

This is a great issue. The story is interesting and unique. I love these characters; Rucka has a great voice for Lois, Montaya and Clark Kent. Perkins' art is stylish and cool. This is a wonderful series so far and I'm excited to see where it goes next. Read Full Review

This issue had so much story that just worked. The response to Lois' story and her own feelings about the attacks. The Voronova reveal and Lois' demand for vengeance. Her skills in trapping Agger. And then the ending. All worked. Read Full Review

Lois Lane is starting to become a lock for me in terms of one of my most anticipated monthly titles. As this conspiracy deepens and Lois gets further in, the more invested I am in seeing how it all will unfold. Read Full Review

Lois Lane (2019-) #2 remains a must read. Greg Rucks expertly blends meta political commentary with comic book storyline. Read Full Review

Lois Lane makes tension its best tool, and it's almost unrecognizable as a Superman family title. It's very much in the vein of another DC classic Rucka had a hand in, Gotham Central, but with journalism in place of cops and no less danger as a result. Read Full Review

Mike Perkins does an amazing job with the art in this issue. The tone perfectly matches the story and its subject matter. Read Full Review

Not only does this book provide a human perspective on a world of superheroes, the noir tone shows it as one with something to be uncovered and potentially turned upside down as a result. Read Full Review

The creative team has done an amazing job so far. They manage to keep up this intense feeling despite there not being a lot of action. I mean, Lois is a reporter. Yes, there is some violence and shooting, but this isn't a series about someone physically fighting crime like we often see. It's about fighting crime in a different way. Which is honestly, incredibly inspiring. Read Full Review

The mysterious, action and drama of Lois Lane continues at a nice pace, mixing grounded realism with superheroics, which is one of my favorite things. Read Full Review

Lois Lane #2 is a great second issue that adds on to the plot keeping it interesting and showing how great a journalism based Lois Lane story can truly be. With its only downfall being characters faces about points. Read Full Review

Lois Lane #2 gives us a great dose of Lois' journalistic prowess, while putting a spotlight on her love life. Read Full Review

Rucka and Perkins work well in tandem to produce a narrative rife with guile and deception. Read Full Review

Lois Lane is an interesting character in comics. She's long been an inherent mass of contradictions: an independent woman who always needs to be saved; smart enough to uncover well-hidden illegal syndicate but can't figure out that Clark and Superman are the same person; etc. Ruck and Perkins are giving us a better Lois Lane. In the process, they show how a non-powered person can effect change in a world full of super-heroes. Read Full Review

Perkins layouts and storytelling techniques are not in doubt, and he has a fine attention to detail (perhaps too fine). Maybe he simply needs the assistance ofan experienced inker to lighten his workload and cultivate a more cohesive visual presentation. Read Full Review

Overall, Lois Lane #2 is not without flaws but the overarching storyline and Lois' work as an investigative reporter make it a must-read. Read Full Review

All of it plays out like short scenes from a much-longer narrative, clips that don't quite complete a unique episode. That style of presentation works better in collection, but it leaves this one issue feeling slightly less than the sum of its parts. Read Full Review

We may be no closer to knowing who is behind it all, but Lois Lane #2 shows that the path to find out is going to be a fun, well-constructed walk on the mean streets of the DCU. With rich detailing and even richer leading ladies, Lois Lane #2 continues to be a glowing showcase of our favorite intrepid reporter and her fan-favorite vigilante co-worker. Read Full Review

Lois Lane proves to be thinking man's comic, an all-too-rare gem in today's pop culture landscape. Taut, tense, and steeped in mystery and atmosphere, this is one comic you shouldn't let pass by. Read Full Review

Lois continues her quest for truth and justice, but the way she's getting there comes off kind of boring in my mind.  All I really want right now is to find out more about the Question, but it seems that we've moved well beyond that happening.  The art is decent at times and there's some action to this, but ultimately, I don't think this style of book is for me.

Mystery's heating up. As stated in my last review of #1, Rucka knows how to write grounded characters, especially Montoya, given his run w/ Brubaker on Gotham Central. Who woulda guessed one of my favorite DC books right now doesn't even involve a superhero... The art is great, it reminds me of Bryan Hitch's art, which I really like also.

I am giving out so many high scores this week, but everything is so good.

The intrigue is interesting but requires patience as this is promising to be a slow burn.
