Unstoppable Doom Patrol #2

Unstoppable Doom Patrol #2 reaffirms everything people love about the team. The DP are a group of flawed people, dealing with their own trauma and physical maladies, while still helping people with theirs.

Unstoppable Doom Patrol #2 continues to build upon the teams new status quo, while also interjecting the weirdness that makes the book so unique. The references to prior continuity and universe shattering art build this up to be a near perfect comic book. Read Full Review

Unstoppable Doom Patrol has all the hallmarks of a well-written and planned new series, and one that could and very much should sustain 100 issues. There's a rich history behind each character to play with as the new series explores a world where there are new metahumans who need more help than ever. Read Full Review

Although this issue wasn't overflowing with action, Culver and Burnham double down on the eccentric nature of Doom Patrol making for a fascinating and enthralling character study. Read Full Review

This whole story is incredibly bizarre, with some really surreal momentsexactly as the Doom Patrol should be. It's not easy to work these characters into the mainstream DCU, but Culver might have the best angle of any creator in a long time. Read Full Review

There's a heartbreaking moment involving one of the new recruits to Doom Patrol, but that just moves the plot ahead even more in the conclusion of the story. Read Full Review

This issue manages to introduce a LOT of important information, establish our stakes, reference multiple Doom Patrol eras AND looks really good. Well worth your time. Read Full Review

Burnham delivers some great art in the issue. I love the cutaway shot of the base and the character moments as the spy moves through the facility. Read Full Review

Very strong issue with a great twist at the end. Great building up the role of the doom patrol in this mini-series. Also enjoy the little nod of Robo-mans roll in this issue to reflect on the previous Doom Patrol Teams and to give insight into all the loss he faces. Sort of a side thing, but a nice sub-plot none-the-less

In the future when everything is written by AI because AI is cheaper, this is what every comic will read like: lots of references to past continuity and allusions to successful movies and TV shows strung together in a vague semblance of a story. (AI art won't be able to produce anything as lovely as Burnham does here, though.) Unless I see reason to come back, I reckon this is where I get off the ride

Haha no, I'm not a hate-reading type, and if I want past glories, I don't have to pan for them: Drake/Premiani, Morrison/Case, Pollack/McKeever and Way/Derrington are all there to reread. Maybe I'll come back if something catches my curiosity!
