Coffin Hill (2013-2015) Vol. 2: Dark Endeavors by Caitlin Kittredge
3.0
Fills in a couple of the gaps from volume 1, which begins after the main character managed to capture a serial killer. That story is told here. And thankfully in a more coherent way than most of what happened in the previous volume.
We also learn why spoilery thing that happened to Eve towards the end of volume 1 took place.
There are still a lot of time jumps and several new timelines get introduced. That, as well as the huge number of female characters - some of them either looking similar to other ones or changing their appearance significantly in between timelines or sometimes referring to themselves in third person - makes it still somewhat hard to follow.
Questions were answered, yes. But new ones were brought up as well.
On its own this volume is more streamlined and therefore easier to read and understand. The big picture, though, remains a bit of a jigsaw puzzle. I guess volume 3 will provide the remaining missing pieces.
Once again I liked Inaki Miranda’s art a lot. And the last issue was pretty cool and also pretty creepy. But I’m not sure yet how it ties in to the other events. We’ll find out.
