Cowboy Ninja Viking Volume 2 by A.J. Lieberman
3.0
I read this the day after finishing the first volume. I had hoped some of the issues of the first volume would be worked out in the second, but instead, I only found more problems.
The story was still non-linear and convoluted, and the art was still monochromatic, with not enough character definition. Additionally, I found the plot moved way too quickly, with the characters moving from country to country in a matter of frames, with little or no explanation or consequence to their actions. More importantly, I started to feel as if the triples' personality splits were not differentiated enough. It seemed more of a gimmick to be used in conversation, rather than an affliction of characters that were carrying three distinct personalities inside them.
That all being said, I still liked both volumes for their ambition and interesting premise, if not how they were executed. I can only hope that future volumes evolve and solve these issues.
