The whole thing moves at a cracking pace with some good set-pieces in south-west England. In the second volume, the dark forces (led by the undead Arthur and the hero's gone-to-the-dark-side mother) summon Beowulf and Grendel and Grendel's mother to their aid, with sanguinary consequences. Like a lot of second volumes, it doesn't take us a lot further than the first, but far enough that I'll certainly be getting the next in the series. Excellent continuation of this series. As we discovered in Volume 1, stories can be brought to life in the modern world. Thus far, only characters from Arthurian legends have been brought to life, but in this volume we see that other stories can as well. Such as the Scandinavian epic hero Beowulf. Duncan and his Gran are the unlikely duo responsible for fending off the creatures that threaten our reality. One of the best comic series going! See more in Gutter Talk, the show all about comics and graphic novels. In this second volume, Duncan is starting to find his way as a fighter of monsters from myth and Legend but he still hasn't forgiven his Gran for keeping him in the dark so long. At the same time, Merlin is manipulating Arthur for his own ends and bringing other legendary characters into the fray. The action here remains top notch and the arc this volume with Beowulf is a lot of fun. I do wish that there were a bit more character development going on with our leads in between all the monster fighting though. aucune critique | ajouter une critique

Although Bridgette and Duncan stopped Arthur from retrieving the grail, their actions have accidently thrown the Otherworld into shambles, allowing for new legends and characters to make their appearance-and bring a world of trouble along with them. When a helmet at the British Museum is taken, Bridgette and Duncan are confronted by another hero of yore, one who will lead them to facing off against their most formidable challenge yet...a beast and his mother. New York Times bestselling writer Kieron Gillen (The Wicked + The Divine, Star Wars) and Russ Manning Award-winning artist Dan Mora (Buffy The Vampire Slayer, Klaus) deliver the next chapter of the critically-acclaimed series that took the world of comics by storm!.

Basically -- grim and bloody with some plot and dreadfully flat characters. The conceit is more dead horse than it is driving force. ( )
