Aug 22, 2015Captain Britain and the Mighty Defenders #2 is a comic with such raw enthusiasm that the rushed and unbalanced story is easy to overlook. Does it tie things up a bit too nicely? Certainly, but it's better than a number of other Secret Wars tie ins. The Marvel universe would greatly benefit from dropping these characters into the All-New All-Different line up, I mean they can somehow fit in Old Man Logan so why not these five? Read Full Review

AIPT - Robert Reed
Aug 20, 2015Captain Britain and the Mighty Defenders #2 is an entertaining, though brief, tie-in to the Secret Wars event. Wrapping together great artwork by Alan Davis and fun beats by Al Ewing into a Judge Dredd homage, the book provides enough to keep fans satiated. While not striking the same emotional chords of Ewing's earlier work inMighty Avengers,Captain Britain and the Mighty Defenders #2 is still well worth a look, especially for readers who may only want to dip their toe into the larger Secret Wars frame.

Aug 20, 2015Al Ewing and Alan Davis reimagine their little section of Battleworld as a Judge Dredd-esque dystopia. The problem might be that it's so short. In two issues, fans unfamiliar with some of these characters won't have much reason to root for them. Read Full Review

About as much as you can expect out of a two issue mini-series. I didn't buy Boss Hill's sudden change of heart, that was silly, but other than that I very much enjoyed this story and the characters involved. I hope this isn't the last we see of Mondo City.

Not good. Not bad. Ewing only had 2 issues for this series, so this issue could've definitely been a lot worse but I can't help but feel this series deserved 3 issues to really flesh out the Yinsen City/Mondo City conflict
