Jul 05, 2023Whether youre a Kaiju fan or not, pick up King Kong: The Great War #2 (as well as issue #1). Its a master class in building tension and how to handle monsters in stories. Attacks are swift and merciless, danger is always present and the book has a relentless tension throughout. Highly recommended. Read Full Review

Jul 11, 2023This second issue ends with a brilliant visual, which acts as a wonderful bit of foreshadowing for what is to come. As we see the Captain and his men make camp in what appears to be one of Kong's hand prints. Read Full Review

Jul 05, 2023Alex has done a great job on pacing throughout the first two issues. There is a sense of drama coupled with action and mystery. These first issues have been interesting and engaging leaving room for a desire of more. We all know what is coming, but the excitement of getting there is real. Read Full Review

You Don't Read Comics - Russ Bickerstaff
Jul 08, 2023The title character really needs to have a bit more of a presence on the page. There are a couple of moments when Kong is quite prominent, but there isnt nearly enough of a focus on him in the second issue. Hes this ominous monster in the background that defines so much of whats going on in the foreground...but only thematically. Cox and company DO seem to be setting up some kind of a showdown between the shipwrecked Germans and the title character, but theyre definitely taking their time with it. This is perfectly okay so long as theres a satisfying pay-off coming at the end of the series. Read Full Review

Comical Opinions - Gabriel Hernandez
Jul 05, 2023KING KONG: THE GREAT WAR #2 is a gritty, dramatic, terrifying story about a ships crew struggling to survive on Skull Island. The dramatic and horror elements are both executed well through the writing and the art, but the main down point is that this story feels like the same King Koing story weve seen before.
