Captain Carter #2

Captain Carter #2 ratchets up the action and tension from the previous issue, as Peggy deals with terrorists, as well as comes to grips with her government and the modern world. It introduces new threats and ends on a great cliffhanger that I can't wait to see resolved next issue. Read Full Review

Captain Carter #2 steps out with a riveting issue this week that challenges Peggy with a problem she cannot face alone. Read Full Review

Captain Carter's principles run up against the political realities of Great Britain, with art that doesn't really excite me and a series of pretty okay events. Read Full Review

This issue is about three steps down from what it should be. Not the fault of the creative team, simply put they have too much story to give the audience and not enough pages to do it. Editorial should've either given them more issues or cut some of the subplots. Read Full Review

Captain Carter #2 almost completely derails the goodwill built up in the first issue with a heavy-handed, overstuffed collection of unrelated (to the plot) lectures about everything from the failures of Brexit to Colonialism. Somehow, the creators forgot this is supposed to be fun escapism. Skip this title until they remember. Read Full Review

The art was good especially considering how complicated the panels were; however, there were not any poster like panels for the interiors. Read Full Review

I can't wait to see what other horrors that Jamie McKelvie can present us within the next issue. Read Full Review

I enjoyed this one quite a lot too. It's cool to see Peggy adjusting to the modern times and realizing that the government isn't all that it claims to be.

Though I agree 100% with this comic's anti-imperalism and anti-anti-immigrant politics, I can't praise the clumsy way they're shoehorned into this issue. They kill the story's momentum just as it was starting to get some. And there are some missing narrative links that could/should have clarified how the plot and the politics relate. The art's nice. It's not quite as spectacular as it wants to be; the blocking isn't up to snuff. But it's by no means bad.
